I lovelovelove this show and find myself relating to the characters at times. I see myself in the awkward but blunt Hannah and see others I know in Shoshana, Marnie, jessa, even Adam. Not only is it relevant but there are so many laugh out loud moments. Ex: the episode when Hannah does cocaine and goes to a rave. My only complaint is with how Lena Dunham's character is naked all the time. At first I was like "you go girl!" But it got to be a bit excessive after a while.

This is today's version of what sex and the city would be like if those 4 girls had no money and we're a lot younger at the start of the show. Don't get me wrong. I loved the last two seasons. But hate the way the ended season 3. There wasn't even a drop off or a cliff hanger. Are there beginning writers on this or what? Help!

I tried watching the show and it has no real SPARK...its like a watered down Sex in the city with topics that are random & don't play into the next episode... Will try to watch it again to see if I can relate to the show...Adam is.a good character
