As season 2 comes to a close my only question is ‘Why haven’t you started watching yet? Really though, what could you be waiting for?’ Girls comes from the master minds of Lena Dunham and Judd Apatow, and has been referred to as The Sex and the City of our generation. Here are 4 reasons you should start watching um NOW:

1. Self Discovery:

Being a Girl in your 20somethings can be a rough adjustment from the comfort of college to the tough transition of entering the real world. Instead of sugarcoating the rough transition Girls portrays it like it really is, awful. The show opens with main character, Hannah, at dinner with her parents who are cutting her off financially and telling her that she needs to get a real job and not just an unpaid internship. This ultimately sets the tone for the overall show, Hannah must embark upon the real world of finding a job and paying her bills.

2. Comfort in your Own Skin:

Lets face it, we are all not a skinny size 2 and what’s so great about this show is that all the characters aren’t either. Lena Dunham is notorious for being naked in this show and it’s comforting to see that she is so comfortable in her own skin. Although Hannah says she hates her self, a lot, she is undeniably comfortable with being naked in front of a camera and thats what makes this show worth watching. 3. Everyone is Self-absorbed

In our 20s you are the most important person in your life and that is one of the clear characteristics of all the characters on Girls. Marnie has a boyfriend who is too smothering and then hits rock bottom after they break up, Hannah doesn’t stop talking about herself, Jessa lives in her own little world and runs away when anything goes wrong, and Shoshonna is just Shoshanna. While these girls are all friends, you can tell one thing, they love themselves more than they love one another.

4. It’s Hilarious

From pop culture references to Hannah quoting Missy Elliott in a break up this show is hands down one of the funniest on television. Lena Dunham and Judd Apatow are the perfect duo and they make this show work so well. If you want to laugh non-stop for 30 minuets then this is the show for you. If you’re boring and don’t have HBO or a friend with HBOGO, it’s your loss, because you are missing the show of our generation.
