“Girls”: Wolcott Nails It For Us
I think James Wolcott nails it, it being the NY media’s favorite comedy: ‘To preserve my priestly chastity, I’m avoiding “Girls” (HBO) so far this sophomore season. Every aspect of every episode of the show and every quiver from its creator are so over-masticated in the media that watching the show is practically redundant anyway; we’re being force-fed it every time we flick open the Times or a web page, and no matter how much sedulous weeding I do of my Twitter timeline, there it spreads.’ That is: even if you don’t watch you watch it.
