Gillian Jacobs Joining Girls for Season 4
With Community gone, Gillian Jacobs will now have time to be popping up in several other shows, movies, etc.
We’re happy to hear that one of those things will be season 4 of Girls in a recurring role coming up on HBO next year.
Lena Dunham to Write Four Part Mini Series for “Archie” Comic Books
With Lena Dunham doing a mini series for the renowned Archie comics, this might be a rare time that we’re really into a new branch of a comic book mythology as opposed to all those zombie versions of most super hero properties.
Lena Dunham to Host SNL on Mar. 8th
With this announcement of Lena Dunham hosting SNL next week and the Internet’s proclivity towards parodying Girls (SNL included), we are wondering how many Girls based/themed sketches there will be.
In fact, we’d wouldn’t mind if most of this episode would be a parody of Girls as done by its creator.
For those of us that want to not illegally download/watch TV and don’t have/have friends that have HBO/HBO GO, HBO has the first two episodes of season 3 of Girls up on YouTube.
Watch episode one and two now.
Tonight’s is offering up more than a solid block of TV comedy with the comedy partners of the moment Amy Poehler and Tina Fey back hosting The Golden Globes live at 8PM EST/5PM PST on NBC, which leaves more than enough time on the West coast to catch the premiere of Season 3 of Girls on HBO at 10PM.
We’d say plan accordingly, but it looks like we have already done that for you.
With a 3rd season nearing it’s premiere and the order for a 4th season just ordered, we’re wondering if HBO just likes seeing what Lena Dunham will go for each season with Girls before renewing it.
Either way, we’re glad to get more Girls coming for the next year or so.
During her interview on Letterman, Lena Dunham revealed that she was thoroughly delighted to get a 3rd season of Girls (premiering this Sun. Jan. 12th 10PM on HBO) considering everything she did in season two, suspecting that she had gotten away with enough according to HBO.
With that in mind, Letterman gives her a little more encouragement on doing her own show. Watch the clip here.
Today is apparently just coupled with season 3 of highly anticipated shows. Earlier, we had Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee and now it’s season 3 of Girls on HBO set to return Jan. 12th.
Watch the trailer for Girls here. Who knows? Maybe we’ll find a third one season 3 trailer and do that rule of three thing.
‘Girls’ EP Murray Miller Inks Deal with HBO/Developing Comedy with Mike White
This is good news for a few reasons.
One, HBO is developing another comedy. Two, HBO is having one of the Girls’ brass, executive producer Murray Miller, develop a series. And three, Enlightened’s Mike White might possibly be returning to HBO.
We don’t know how long you think you’ve been waiting for the next season of HBO’s Girls, but know that we’ve all waiting the same time whether you think it’s relatively short or way too long.
With that said, here’s the trailer that’s been a long time coming for season 3 of Girls and it’ll make the premiere slated for next year seem like too long of a wait for how promising it looks.
Season Three of HBO’s Girls Premiering Next Year
The critically acclaimed series Girls from Lena Dunham is coming back in January 2014 to HBO.
We are looking forward to its return as well as the myriad of essays that have come along with the series and its effect on television.
There have been a lot of parodies of Lena Dunham’s Girls ever since the first trailer dropped. However, writer/director Gail Lerner did her take on Girls going 38 seasons, which is longer than The Simpsons, with the likes of Laraine Newman and Martin Starr and it’s both pretty spot on and pretty great.
Give a watch to the possible future.

Louie, Girls, D.L. Hughley and Lorne Michaels All Receive Peabody Awards
Interestingly enough, it would seem that The Peabody Awards, most of which go to documentaries and hard hitting journalists, gave comedy more of a nod than The Oscars did this year.
