"I&amp;#x27;m still working out how I felt about last night&amp;#x27;s Mad Men finale, but I&amp;#x27;m firm on Girls: I thought last night&amp;#x27;s episode was an absolute masterpiece. I&amp;#x27;ve been up and down with this show--it&amp;#x27;s made me gasp with recognition, but it&amp;#x27;s also made me roll my eyes. Last night&amp;#x27;s episode, though, kicked me off the fence and onto the bandwagon. It wasn&amp;#x27;t just that the dialogue was breathtakingly relatable--it was how much ground the show managed to cover. Exactly three major staples of the twentysomething decade came seamlessly together. Witness: 1) The roommate fight I&amp;#x27;m not sure I even breathed during the centerpiece scene of this ep: the extended, tense, one-shot fight between Marnie and Hannah. It demonstrated exactly the way the pressures of new adult life--money, time, relationships, the quest for establishment--can test friendships forged in the problem-free cocoons of childhood and college. Spoiler alert (for the episode and for life): these things always end in slammed doors. 2) The competitive envy How brilliant was Jenny Slate as Hannah&amp;#x27;s college rival last night? &amp;quot;It just really poured out of me... I really admire that, the effort to do something that is maybe not so natural to you.&amp;quot; That&amp;#x27;s some blue-ribbon backhandedness right there. 3) The face-yourself moment As stunningly scripted as Marnie and Hannah&amp;#x27;s blowout was, my favorite moment of this episode was definitely watching Kathryn Hahn as she gently sliced right through the swirl of drama that surrounds Jessa: &amp;quot;...You cause all this trouble and you have no idea why. My opinion? You&amp;#x27;re doing it to distract yourself from the kind of person you&amp;#x27;re meant to be... She might not look like what you pictured when you were age 16. Her job might not be cool. Her hair might not be flowing like a mermaid. And she might really be serious about something or someone. And she might be a lot happier than you are right now.&amp;quot; What did you think of last night&amp;#x27;s episode--were you as touched by it as I was? (I do have ONE complaint, and you know what it is--I want to know what happened on Shoshanna&amp;#x27;s date!) Is the show getting better or worse for you? And what&amp;#x27;s the GIRLS moment you&amp;#x27;ve related to most so far? More on GIRLS...
