Insanely watchable and unique. Anybody else here a fan? First season was great, but I feel like this year could go in a bad direction.
Current power rankings
1) Adam - Belongs on the list of best HBO show characters
2) Shoshanna - Used to be a hater, road trip episode totally won me over
3) Jessa - Should be constantly involved in weird, silly, several episode long subplots like her marriage to Chris O'Dowd
4) Hannah - Pretty insufferable sometimes, OCD arc was poorly done imo
5) Marnie - She needs something to do, not digging Rita Wilson as her mom

I really liked season 1. Season 2 was good, but fell away towards the end, IMO. I became a little bored with it all. Hoping that season 3 will pick it up a bit and be more like the first season. Of course, this is unlikely and so I'll probably just drift along with this programme until I don't care, it becomes a habit or it ends.

Love itttttttttttt, I'm currently half way through series 2.
4) Hannah - Pretty insufferable sometimes, OCD arc was poorly done imo
Not good to hear that, when does she get diagnosed with OCD then? I heard she goes through something like that and was interested to see how they handle it in such a show as I have it myself. Why do you think it was poorly done?
It was just a thing that came out of nowhere and felt very inauthentic to me; even if it was based on Dunham's own real life issues. It dragged the end of that season down imo. Also I generally liked her acting up to that point in the show but I don't think she pulled it off in her performance either. Guess some people thought it was interesting tho
I have caught an episode here and there, and the writer really seems to have chops. Not my usual cup of tea, but I found myself entertained while watching! I will probably give it a go when I free up some watching time!
I've completely turned on this show and find it mostly grating now. Don't know exactly what went wrong. Watching mostly out of habit now.

I'm liking season 3 a lot more than I did the end of season 2. Maybe it's just the lack of OCD and Adam actually doing something?

OMG, "Home Birth" was one of the best episodes I've seen so far.http://i853.photobucket.com/albums/ab94/earlsmoviepicks/jessa%204_zps2k6qod4a.jpg (http://s853.photobucket.com/user/earlsmoviepicks/media/jessa%204_zps2k6qod4a.jpg.html)

That aired last night here. Still not seen it yet. I've liked season 4 quite a bit. Not the best because I've never liked Desi and his inclusion has relegated Marnie to a bit part for this season.
