GIRLS Season 4

[Guy Gardener]

Can you feel that I am looking down my bespectacled nose at you?

But then superficially Community does look like more American cookie cutters rammed into Shit again, so I can't exactly blame your snap judgements saving you from watching reruns for 10 cycles.

 

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

I am very proud of the quantity of television I have managed to suck down. Also that was a Harlan Ellison reference that just popped out of my fingers and I am very proud of that too. All of which is to say I will not be shamed, I will NOT!

 

[Guy Gardener]

The part of my brain where I keep my TV is very overweight.

 

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

The whole time Ray was putting on that ridiculous rubber glove and duct tape deal on Hannah's burn I was thinking... wtf, you are a total idiot. Yeah you are going to keep the burn dry by encasing it in a huge piece of airless rubber.

Also, storage compartments. Do people ever sleep in them? I know you couldn't live in them because no water or toilet or light (I assume when the door is shut, you'd have to bring one) or cooling or much heating but would it be okay to just crash there?

Nope, not allowed, otherwise every unit would be a cheap flat for the homless.

 

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

But how do they know if you are there?

 

[Guy Gardener]

The people who own the storage farms can have nothing to do with renting storage units to poor people as housing or they will go to jail forever/be fined into bankruptcy.

Middle management and lower middle management however will take $40 a week from dozens of "residents" to ignore that humans are living where they are legally really not allowed to at all.

New Episode!

I don't see a beautiful woman when I look at Allison. She has an extra anal cavity pitted into her chin. I understand that this is just something that some people have, but she might as well have a third ear there because I have trouble recognizing her as a human being that hasn't had some fruit picking accident to the face.

Soshanna got a Ritter! (His daddy was on Three's Company.) I think there's an element with this one that the longer you kiss her the less she will say awful things while talking. To save your ears and mind from the assault of her personality, there must be so much kissing.

I knew Ray was going to run.

The bloke in charge of the council meeting was Marc Maron who has a decent sitcom named after himself.

Hannah wants to be a teacher?

Without a teaching degree?

GFY Hannah.

 

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

In the US I believe you can teach with a masters degree. You don't need an extra teaching degree on top of that. If I'm wrong someone will tell me.

All this predicting how long she would be in Iowa for, and it was ONE MONTH She beat us all!

Desi and Marnie doing it to their OWN MUSIC omg, they have always been a parody of themselves and adding this soundtrack just makes it more deep cringeworthy.

Adam is going to like Mimi Rose even more now that she is a challenge and difficult.

 

[Guy Gardener]

To Mimi Rose he is furniture.

As a Sculptress she turns inanimate things into life, if art is life.

Nothing is real or exists until she says it is.

(Artists are almost always just that pompous.)

Hanna and Adam was about entanglement.

Mimi-Rose and Adam is about a periodically intersecting orbit.



I'm not really going to have a grounded opinion on these two until I see them fuck.

Isn't it sad that we can so rarely judge all our friends' relationships with this same criteria?



If we do skip ahead 5 years, Ray is going to be the Mayor of York city and Marnie is going to be so lonely dancing in a strip club crying that she could have been Mrs. Mayor if she'd just not been an asshole when she was younger.

 

[Aldo]

I finally caught up again (three episodes in one night is quite a lot of Hannah to put up with. I tease though ).

What I really love about this show is that nothing is black and white. Sure we want to hate Adam when we find out he has a new girlfriend, but then you hear his side of the story and what he did doesn't' sound too crazy. I still feel really bad for Hannah though, that episode where she first returns was super hard to watch.

Also with Mimi-Rose, I wanted to turn her into the bad guy when she told Adam she aborted his baby, but then she got to share her side of the story too and again, it's not as cut and dry. She's an interesting character for sure, elevated because of Jacobs wonderful performance. I also like how her and Hannah became as close to friends as these two will probably ever be in the most recent episode.

Desi...I really don't like the guy, he's always come off as a bit slimy to me, and it appears that Marnie is finally seeing this too. Of course it happened after they moved in together, but better late than never I suppose.

I loved seeing Zachary Quinto show up, without looking up if he's back again or not I just want to say I hope he shows up again, his character was good and could prove a formidable hurdle for Adam, if indeed he wants to pursue a relationship with Mimi-Rose.

 

[Mr. Adventure]

With her hair like that Mimi-Rose reminded me a lot of Amy Acker tonight. I haven't quite figured out why I watch this show, I feel that I'm the completely wrong demographic and type.

I go back and forth on my feelings on it. Hannah can be a really unlikable character at times, I didn't care for the way she treated everyone in her class a few weeks ago.

But I wonder if that was the point, to highlight that she comes off completely different when she's away from her social circle (who in reality, are just as messed up as she is). In any event, now that she's back in New York I'm finding I like her as a character again and even feel bad for what she's going through with Adam.

 

[Mr. Adventure]

Of course, all of the characters are pretty flawed. I'm not sure if any of them would actually be good friends to have. I love Jessa though and she's probably the worse of the lot.

 

[Guy Gardener]

Jessa is the worst.

I can't believe Adam held it together when Jessa told him that he was her human Chessman.

Just when you felt Spock deprived, the universe provides.

 

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

I'm 8 minutes 40 seconds in.

JESUS XXX CHRIST IT'S ZACHARY QUINTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[TEACAKE'S PLEATHER DOME]

Was that shorter than other episodes?

I liked how Quinto's character says Mimi-Rose "curated" her personality, that was a great line.

Hannah was embarrassing to watch dragging the date to the stalker ball. And the teaching, she is going to lap up being the cool teacher while it's happening and she's on stage but as soon as she walks out the door it will be the smell of failure and teenage sweat and old classrooms.

 

[Guy Gardener]

I totally thought that Hannah was going to get fired for saying MILF.

Fran walking out on Hannah was so cool, but not as cool as Hannah's explanation for her Behaviour: "I don't know!"

Fran was in season 9 of the office, which is why I didn't know why I felt for him so much.

 

[Aldo]

Fran must be a glutton for punishment. Cause according to the previews he'll be back.

 

[Guy Gardener]

He's got an apologyjob owed him in a supply closet.

 

[Guy Gardener]

Fran is in recovery from "interesting" people.

Marnie, your boyfriend just sold your cow for magic beans.

2 grand for a magic foot pedal?

That's a justifiable defence for homicide, surely?

The only reason that Marnie shouldn't kill people is that she is obviously too dumb to hide a body.

I loved the 70s era print on Shohanna's dress while she was selling ray to the public.

Nostalgia feels good.
