I unironically liked and kept up with 2-3 seasons of "girls" before having a flashing realization that the show was shit, I hated the characters and the actors playing them, and I finally accepted that the only attractive girl (marney) would never get naked on camera.

It's an interesting look at what absolute fucking trainwrecks young single women are without a primary aspiration of getting married and having kids. Life with no sane organizing principle.

After a while, though, it's like just watching patients in an insane asylum. Once you get a sense of the patterns, it's not interesting, it's just unpleasant.

Various health problems make it take a long time.

Everybody's unhealthy these days. Unnatural diets, not enough exercise, artificial light fucking with their sleep cycle, overstimulation and excessive stress, etc.

Yeah I think that's a fair way of looking at it. I was definitely curious for a while but eventually I think I got exasperated and disinterested with the largely self-invented problems which seemed almost farcical from my perspective of a kind of weird single guy.
