Also that people never got that they were deliberately written to be annoying and lacking in self-awareness. That was part of the conceit, but people couldn’t give the writers credit for that. It would be like watching It’s Always Sunny and whinging “I’m not going to continue watching this. Dennis Reynolds is not a very nice person!” Women in their twenties can’t get credit for anything
I was never a fan of this series but the media context around Girls is fascinating and continues to add layers. I don’t think the guys are vastly more talented than their female counterparts the way their careers trajectories would indicate. Lena isn’t a great actress but she’s not the worst actress ever and her acting didn’t limit the series. I’ve always had a crush on Allison Williams.
I was in a post office in Brooklyn soon after the show ended and Ebon was in line ahead of me and I was filled with rage at Desi. So they aren’t wrong.
Allison is sooo versed in like internet-talk haha that can only be more evident because she’s talking to Ebon, who doesn’t seem to know or care a lot about it
It was almost an integral trait of the show. When we’re young we ARE unbearable, dramatic, all of it whilst trying to make the best of it and also have fun and not get f*cked by life. It’s a tight rope to walk lol Lena really captured that vibe. They were all very chaotic but yet full of potential.
SEVEN YEARS??????! SAY IT ISN'T SO 😭 People can say all they want about Lena Dunham but GIRLS is iconic and will forever remain a close favorite of mine. I wish we could get content like that nowadays.
the episode where their characters meet has my fav moment in the whole show. When Marnies looking for the bathroom and opens a closet, her reaction is SO honest and hilarious ❤
I loved girls so much, it got me through some tough times. Was so sad when it ended. Tho my name is Hannah and I couldn't handle lenas character being called hannah. Pretty much liked everyone besides lena 😂
I like that Allison actually embraced being reflective about the show and the character. Ebon was just being a "cool guy", less generous. And then he didn't even watch her show, come on! A typical gender dynamic in Girls, ha.:/
6:54. This how we’ve gotten to the point where narcissism and self absorption have gone mainstream. When a beautiful women tells it’s okay, all the guy can do is go along with it. Edit: He was perhaps just being polite. Giving some minor resistance to that silly idea.
I loved the show when it aired, never got the criticism. As I grew older I rewatched girls a few times and it hit even harder I’m so happy that younger audience found this gem, it was definitely ahead of its time. And the cast - I mean 🫠
I'm genz and when i watched girls i hated marnie, thought she was the worst. She was so wishy-washy, indecisive and not self-aware. She didnt care who she hurt to get her way. Maybe if i watched it again ill feel differently
Allison defending the selfishness of the Girls is so Marnie coded. But I agree this show was before it's time, full of flawed, entertaining characters.
I agree with Ebon... the level of Narcissism in the show is now very commonplace in our current society. It's in large part why our society is in a slow freefall.
Girls is an underrated classic.
100%
absolutely. Great show.
It was one of the most popular shows of the 2010s...
I love what she says about the guys on the show being considered actors and the girls were just playing versions of themselves. Sexism!
Also that people never got that they were deliberately written to be annoying and lacking in self-awareness. That was part of the conceit, but people couldn’t give the writers credit for that.

ebon is the level of chronically offline that i strive to be
The way he was looking like wtf are you talking about when she mentioned acrylic nails tapping on the Stanley cup 🤣🤣
Walk with me… I have a plan to give Allison Williams and Andrew Rannells retroactively the Emmy. WALK WITH ME
I’m here for this.
OPEN YOUR HEART TO ME BELLA!
IT’S FCKING OPEN!!!
😂😂😂
Probably my favorite episode ♥️
I literally watch that episode like 5 times a year
Iconic moment and that was probably my fav episode in the whole series
Stronger is the greatest comedic scene of the 2010s. You can’t change my mind
It’s up there for sure.
"now that level of narcissism is just the baseline" is the truth, though I can appreciate the attempt at reframing the characters.
two legendary queens reminiscing over their joint slay
Wait Allison is so well-spoken and thoughtful and lovely... need her to interview everyone
Being well spoken must run in the family
Allison is sooo versed in like internet-talk haha that can only be more evident because she’s talking to Ebon, who doesn’t seem to know or care a lot about it
Marnie would have loved TikTok
Everyone on Girls was unbearable, it was so fun.

So entertaining 😂😂😂
GIRLS is soo iconic. 4 of them perfect casting. I demand a reunion 😊
Hear me out, not watching her miniseries is a very Desi move and Allison trying to play it off as okay, is very Marnie.
they look exactly the same as 7 years ago, which is wild. they're both so lovely
when she said marnie is with you always… i felt that heavy. marnie is my guide spiritually like she literally shows up when im freaking out
It’s so Desi to have not seen Marnie’s new project 😂😅
She is very gracious, he shouldve watched the show. Its amazing! 🎉
And next week we’ll see Adam and Lena reunion? Zosia and Alex? I'm in for all the Girls content you want to give me… please give it to meee
This!!!!
What a treat that would be
she is a great interviewer! It is clear that she is interested and witty
I miss Girls all the time.
Time to rewatch!
Girls is one of my favourite shows and always will be.
SEVEN YEARS??????! SAY IT ISN'T SO 😭 People can say all they want about Lena Dunham but GIRLS is iconic and will forever remain a close favorite of mine. I wish we could get content like that nowadays.
I love that he straight forward admitted not watching her show and was just learning everyhting about it on the spot😅
Ebon is such a talent. BEYOND
“My dad lurking…” oh Brian Williams
lmaoo
That relationship was so insane and entertaining. I loved it so much❤😂😂
That 'Stronger' performance was ICONIC. She was our white Kate Moss that night!
I've always loved Marnie so much and my biggest flex is to have never doubted her❤️
the episode where their characters meet has my fav moment in the whole show. When Marnies looking for the bathroom and opens a closet, her reaction is SO honest and hilarious ❤
I love them so much!!! Thank u Vanity Fair. Thank u for making this happen
"BELLA. OPEN YOUR HEART TO ME"
jemima kirke and adam driver next PLEASE
Please do Shosh and Ray next 🥰
Him needing her to whisper the Taylor lore to him before they cut 😭
It's very difficult for me to look at these two and think of that scene. You know the scene.
I absolutely adore both of them! Loved them on Girls and so happy both are flourishing in their careers
I can't be the only one who needed this.
Ebon is perspicacious.
The reunion I didn't know I needed ❤❤❤
Glad to see you, guys! 😊
Both played their insufferable characters so well it made them so entertaining! Love Marnie and Desi's chaos so much.
this is everything to me
GIRLS would always get me so excited to show my friends and when I did they all got HOOKED.
looooovvvvvveeeddd this show
This show was mimic of the movie Cruel Intentions, with Sarah M Gellar, Reese Witherspoon, and Ryan Philippe.
OMFGGGGG NO WAYYYYY
i literally just rewatched girls and yesterday was watching lena dunhams interviews and now i see this! a truly absurd world of matrix
marnie michaels because of what she’s been through and she’s still singing
Marnie Marie Michaels ❤
Was it just me who expected him to greet her with “Bella!!!“
My mid twenty self is crying
just when I restarted watching girls this pop up on my feed oh the memories 🥲
She really is Marnie, leaving no room for others
😭
OMG MY CRUSHES
Marnie and Allison needed a talkshow tbh
lol they did not put a guitar next to their chair!! 😂❤
I know they're talking a lot, but I bet you anything the whole time they're thinking: "A$$ eating scene. A$$ eating scene. A$$ eating scene."
Easily one of my best shows
Allison Williams is Gorgeous I wouldn’t want GET OUT!!!!
come back please come back also marnie episode in season 5 was the best
MAMA AND PAPA
petition for Kelly Clarkson and Jack Antonoff to collab 🖐️
I need a girls rewatch
Awesome
The way she’s looked the same since season one of girls
Forgot how much I loved to hate Marnie and Desi 😂 these two crushed it
I loved girls so much, it got me through some tough times. Was so sad when it ended. Tho my name is Hannah and I couldn't handle lenas character being called hannah. Pretty much liked everyone besides lena 😂
I like that Allison actually embraced being reflective about the show and the character. Ebon was just being a "cool guy", less generous. And then he didn't even watch her show, come on! A typical gender dynamic in Girls, ha.:/
Ok
And it doesn’t seem like he even gets the show. When she was explaining how it’s embraced and understood now and he wasn’t getting her
@@jarredbusbee4381 I mean... it's truly a testament to narcissism, that was true then and it's true now. Seems like he get it.
Yes, that’s why Allison will forever be famous!
The show was called GIRLS but it was all about Adam 🤷🏻♂️
Nah come on now Allison, they were definitely narcissists 😅
Apologism galore. Love Allison, but oof :')
season one of the Bear was the best
Girls was my show. It could have went longer imo.
6:54.
This how we’ve gotten to the point where narcissism and self absorption have gone mainstream. When a beautiful women tells it’s okay, all the guy can do is go along with it.
Edit:
He was perhaps just being polite. Giving some minor resistance to that silly idea.
IM SCREAMING. I had no idea he was in GIRLS. Its been a while since I've watched it though.
25 episodes!
@@AlliesBeautyTips how dare you tempt an easily manipulated binge watcher. I already started it again last night 😂
He should have watched or even googled her show. If she didn’t for his show, she would be getting flask for it.
does she not know that marnie was an insane character?...
I thought that they were going to play something, they had a guitar there.
The flower crown and the guitar…
he sounds so Desi irl
He is Desi.
I loved the show when it aired, never got the criticism. As I grew older I rewatched girls a few times and it hit even harder I’m so happy that younger audience found this gem, it was definitely ahead of its time. And the cast - I mean 🫠

You won't lol. But it's still worth a rewatch
Oh no. THAT’s her lol
Marnie is THE WORST. That’s the whole point of the show. They’re all pretty nuts and insufferable, but marnie IS the worst and grows the least.
did they date in real life?
No, they were/are with other people. Ebon was always married and she was engaged and then married.
OMFGGGGGGGG
GIRLS reunion episodes when HBO??? 😫😫😫
Allison defending the selfishness of the Girls is so Marnie coded. But I agree this show was before it's time, full of flawed, entertaining characters.
i love marnie but she's not giving gen-z self-care 😂
I agree with Ebon... the level of Narcissism in the show is now very commonplace in our current society. It's in large part why our society is in a slow freefall.
i thought that was bert kreischer
Luke Newton and Nicola Coughlan doing lie detector tests please
Fleetwood Mac touring again omg
As if this interview couldn’t get any better, they start talking about Taylor Swift and TTPD at the end ❤
who’s the person with the type writer???
@@miapenner5754 (allegedly) Matty Healy - lead singer of the 1975
🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉
OMGGGGGGGGG
No, Marnie was selfish and self absorbed.
What's going on BELLA??!!
I saw a handful of episodes. None of the characters appealed to me. At all. Which I think was the point?
Micro❤
Their relationship was excruciating to watch lol I hated them
i'm sorry but he looks so bored omg
Marnie and Desi.
Cousin!
