The Girls After Show recaps, reviews and discusses episodes of HBO's Girls.Show Summary: Girls is an American television series that premiered on HBO on April 15, 2012. Created by and starring Lena Dunham, Girls is a comedy-drama following the lives of four young women living in New York City. The show's premise and major aspects of the main character were drawn from Dunham's own life. The show centers on aspiring writer Hannah who gets a shock when her parents visit from East Lansing, Michigan, and announce they will no longer financially support her as they have done since her graduation from Oberlin College two years before. Left to her own devices in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, she navigates her twenties, "one mistake at a time".

    Not for real GIRLS fans.
    I've only listened to three episodes of this podcast but I'm pretty sure I've heard enough. GIRLS is a funny, smart, honest, and completely unique portrayal of what it means to be a young woman today. Unlike nearly every other show on TV today, GIRLS aims to depict women in the ways they truly exist- both in their storylines and in their casting. The women on this show bate their cellulite, pubic hair, and imperfections without shame or embarrassment. It's a conscious effort made by the show's creators to help change unrealistic industry standards on the female image and it's part of why GIRLS has been so successful. So I was reasonably disappointed and offended when I heard one of the hosts of this podcast, in reviewing episode 8 of the series, making childish and insensitive fat jokes directed at Lena Dunham, the show's creator, producer, and lead actor. It's reasonable to comment on her appearance throughout the show- Dunham intentionally bares it all to shock audiences and get them talking about the female body/image. But taking petty shots at Dunham's weight just for laughs is just catty, judgmental, and completely unnecessary. Fat shaming is a horrible means of oppressing other women by attempting to make them feel shame or discomfort for their looks. I don't want to listen to women bashing other women, and I don't think many real GIRLS fans would want to hear that either. It's sad and inappropriate for these women to body shame Lena Dunham while simultaneously benefiting from her success with their own podcast.

    What?
    I'm pretty sure I'm not watching the same show as these girls. They are just as delusional as Hannah.

    Love THESE Girls!
    This podcast is actually the reason I am still watching Girls this season. I think I look forward to the host's reviews more than the actual show. It is so nice to hear these awesome hosts telling the real scoop on these characters that honsestly are rarely that likeable...as well as finally giving Shoshana the props she deserves! Fantastic hosts, fantastic recaps. Don't change a thing!

    Trying to listen to this podcast
    I was really excited about this podcast - love the show and thought this would be a nice way to recap the episodes. However, it seems the hosts can't even get the main characters straight and repeatedly mix them up. Also, between the horribly cheesy intro and the hosts trying to be painfully hip and cool I doubt I will be a faithful listener. Such a bummer!
