Girls arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. Girls gets the fundamentals right first, then finds room to get weird with it. The assorted humiliations, disasters and rare triumphs of four very different twenty-something girls: Hannah, an aspiring writer; Marnie, an art gallery assistant and cousins Jessa and Shoshanna. Between them, Lena Dunham and Allison Williams carry the comedy without ever forcing it. It ran for 6 seasons (2012–2017), and the writing holds up across every one of them. The real test of any comedy is whether it is still funny once you know all the jokes, and Girls holds up on rewatch in a way that separates it from one-off curiosities. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

Girls is the kind of thing you put on in the background and end up fully watching. The tonal similarities to Master of None are real, though Girls carves out its own identity quickly. The 6-season run rewards the patience it asks of you. Lena Dunham is funny in a way that holds up on rewatch. Put it on when you need something guaranteed to land.

Girls wrapped up in 2017, created by and starring Lena Dunham — and 6 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
