GIRLS ON HBO appreciation/ discussion thread

Is it just me or when ever Booth comes on I just wanna sing " dick in a box" or " jizz in my pants" I dunno....

We have seen just as much Booth's ass as we have anything else in his scenes. But I find myself cringing at him.

hahahaha, i can see that. i'd also hate fuck him and knock that fucking weirdo doll down in the process.

That was so ridiculous. No wonder Marni cracked up as soon as they were done.

Adam looked really good during that scene on the ferry while he was holding the dog.... This was the best screenshot I could get, there were better ones of him smiling but I gave up .. I went from hating this character to really diggin him, and his weirdness.

As for Booth , I love and hate his character. I really like that actor/comedian, so I enjoy watching him play this strange douchbag.. and I think thats what makes me able to tolerate him.

[chairmenmeow47]

ha, i'm kind of the opposite. i hate his obsessiveness. he seemed so much more put together last season.

I started crushing on Adam after the whole "Do you want me to be your boyfriend??" argument after they crashed his bike, and Hanna confronted him about all the stuff he wasn't telling her. Peel back the onion..

[chairmenmeow47]

i liked him best when he was making her pretend to be 11

[euphonicfiend]

Well I also liked him last season, hated him in the beginning and then grew to like him once he was dancing all silly and all that. What I meant more was that scene was the first time I thought " Damn Adam, you hot." he was attractive to me before, but because of his personality. I never before thought to take a screen shot to capture his hotness. It was also the lighting, and the fact that he was holding a dog and smiling.

[RotationSlimWang]

Adam didn't take the guy's dog because he was lonely and wanted companionship. He took the dog because he viewed the way the owner was treating the dog as a parallel to how Hannah was treating him. Hannah works in a coffee shop, the guy leaves his dog tied up while he goes into a coffee shop, Adam feels forgotten and abused, you can fill in the rest.

How can you possibly dislike a guy who comes the continent of Africa?

The sex scenes between him and Marnie make me feel like I'm watching a Ryan Murphy show on FX. His ass is all up in our faces while Marnie is completely covered in a think comforter? WTF?

[chairmenmeow47]

they also go to extreme lengths* to hide his balls.

*pun intended

I think the actress is really uncomfortable with nudity. I noticed she went out of her way to cover her boobs in her sex scene with Elijah and it seemed really unnatural. That was part of what made that scene so awkward. Also in the last episode after Booth fired his assistant while he and Marni were naked in bed, she got out of bed and went to the bathroom with the whole sheet around her. Come AAAHN, who takes a whole sheet into the bathroom?

[chairmenmeow47]

marnie. that's who. have you been watching her character at all on this show? *archer voice* TYPICAL MARNIE */archer voice*

[ThatGirl]

Ok you're right, Marni is uptight as hell, but it's not like her character is supposed to act like she's aware of being filmed. That's what it seemed like in the Elijah scene. The cover up seemed way too staged.

[chairmenmeow47]

she's not afraid of being filmed, she's afraid of ANYONE seeing her naked. dollars to donuts kat does this shit too.

[xanman86]

I agree with both of you. Her coy nature is a mix of her personality and the fact that she has been in one relationship for so long that she is not comfortable sexually with others yet. She acted out last season with the idea of a threesome after her relationship fell apart because it was the first time she felt free to explore her sexuality as an adult.

On top of all this, it seems painfully obvious that the actress has some clause in her contract against nudity and it takes me out of the natural mood of the show.

[chairmenmeow47]

i wouldn't be surprised if she's always been afraid to be nude. she may be a never-nude, who knows. but she just strikes me as one of those girls who is so self-conscious, she can't even let her self go with a person who clearly finds her attractive because he's fucking her.

We need a swiming scene to see if she shows up in a onesie. lol

[scenicworld]

don't forget that the very first episode was Marnie shaving her legs in the tub with Hannah and she pretty much said no one ever sees her boobs.

have any of you rewatched season 1? the Adam situation takes on a different dynamic the second time around. I didn't have to wait for the "do you want me to be your boyfriend" part to fall in love with him

Now that you mention that comment I sort of remember it. I should re-watch the first season.

I've watched all the way up to S2E3. No luck uploading E4 eh? Guess I'll have to torrent it or something.

S2 E2-3 hit some wrong buttons for me. This show is quickly becoming everything I expected to dislike about it.

I can't help but think that her IRL dad being Brian Williams (yes, that Brian Williams) might have something to do with it.

disappointing episode last night.

[ThatGirl]

Yeah, I didn't think much of this episode either. Hannah having sex with every guy that manages to cross her path is getting a bit old. Also, Hannah's relationship with Jessa is confusing. Jessa consistently treats her like shit and Hannah doesn't call her out on it much. But I did like Gemima's performance when she was addressing the issues with her father.

What about their relationship is confusing to you? Have you never seen two best friends, one of whom gives the other shit? Especially when the person in question is kinda a twat?

Aunt Gemima.

Aunt Gemima.

their relationship is a little more than a gentle ribbing between good friends, but I think that's just how Jessa is and her relationship with Hannah isn't any weirder than any of her other relationships. I wasn't really surprised when Jessa ran off since that's apparently what her father has done for a lot of her life and it's probably a coping mechanism for her.
