Ray is good but honestly that episode was terrible and Elijah is a ray of sunshine and I need him in my life so I'm glad he's being featured so heavily. Jess is just so fucking unlikable.
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 13:11 (nine years ago) link
well the good news is that this coming episode is another solo Bruce Eric Kaplan episode. he's done 2 on his own before; Video Games (the amazing one where they go to Jessa's Dad's place) in Season 2 and Flo (the one with Hannah's Grandmother in the hospital, pretty much the best episode of the show IMO) in Season 3. so .. yay i say.

Jess is p objectively horrible as a human being
― Οὖτις, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 16:37 (nine years ago) link
occasionally the show tries to depict her as less horrible by giving her flashes of being brutally honest w people but it's all pretty gross on the whole
― Οὖτις, Wednesday, 28 January 2015 16:44 (nine years ago) link
re Jessa - yeah I just can't. I know they try to do this but just everything about her bothers me so much. She's just . . . completely obnoxious.
― Benson and the Jets (ENBB), Wednesday, 28 January 2015 19:22 (nine years ago) link
i like how hateable she is. as far as the commitment of the actress etc

Retrospect lol at the GoT reference: Dunham herself probably has been nude more often on Girls than anyone on that.

"Nepotism" would be like if Lena Dunham was Judd Apatow's daughter and Marnie Williams was the daughter of an HBO exec. There are an awful lot of actors/writers/directors in the world who are children of other successful people.

I wonder how much sway Bad Company's drummer has at HBO. "Shit, boss, you'd better answer this one. It's the drummer from Bad Company. If we don't do what he asks we're toast."

it is more a testament to the accuracy of casting than nepotism. a show abt a group of people from privileged backgrounds is acted by a group of people from privileged backgrounds.

im still into marnies character but would not've minded jettisoning zosia & jessa for this season, def seems like they don't have much to do

The OMG privilege! thing with Jemima Kirke is that her mother is a Dellal; she's cousins with Alice and Olympia Dellal. LOL at the idea that the dad is the signifier of advantage on that poster.
― camp event (suzy), Thursday, 5 February 2015 14:56 (nine years ago) link
I have too but the show's willingness/eagerness to go for long joke-free stretches, sometimes entire episodes even, makes it p clear they expect the audience to be invested in the drama end of the characters' lives. which I am not tbh. p much everybody is loathsome, they work better as comedy.
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 5 February 2015 16:26 (nine years ago) link
I always found it hard to care much about the characters too -- it's like the show lacks a certain awareness of just how easy it's going to be for these people to have perfectly fine lives in the long run, and expects us to be invested in the drama of whether they'll be ok. But there's still a certain amount of enjoyment in the often witty dialogue and just the sheer recognition factor of it being fairly accurate about certain aspects of the lives of people fairly close in age and geography to me.
