‘No taboos were off the table’ - Girls fans pay tribute to Lena Dunham’s groundbreaking HBO comedy-drama on its 10-year anniversary
Somehow, it’s been 10 years since Lena Dunham’s groundbreaking HBO comedy drama Girls came crashing into our lives.
Natalia, 26, based in London, began watching Girls when it first debuted in 2012 at the age of 16. ‘What really drew me in, and even now what makes it different, is the grittiness of it,’ she recalls. ‘The topics that Girls dealt with such as mental health, there were no taboos left off the table. Nowadays, Natalia has more respect for Ray Ploshansky . ‘All my life I adored Jessa, but I think it took maturity for me to realise that my favourite character is Ray. I didn’t appreciate him at the beginning, I found his maturity and his cynicism irritating, but then I realised that’s because he’s the only adult. Everything he says is right. He seems boring and practical, but you soon realise, actually gentrification and traffic are important.
Like Natalia, Gina also had a soft spot for Jessa. ‘All of the characters brought their own assets to the show, but Jessa was definitely my favourite character because she was deeply flawed but strong and independent,’ she shares.‘To me, she was the epitome of New York glamour, but she was also messy and chaotic. She could also be selfish and callous, but also vulnerable and deeply sensitive. This was personified perfectly when she goes to visit her father and you finally see her backstory.
