The 11 Most ‘Girls’ Moments From ‘Girls’

“I could be the voice of my generation."

Warning: spoilers ahead.

Last night marked the end of an era, not just for Lena Dunham and the entire cast of HBO’s Girls, but for the millions of twenty and thirty-something women who spent the past five years laughing at, learning from, and sometimes (read: often) being entirely disgusted by Hannah, Shoshanna, Jessa and Marnie.

The final episode Girls left many disappointed. Firstly, it didn’t even include Jessa and Shosh (or Elijah, for that matter). Secondly, Hannah basically just came to terms with motherhood, not in New York, but living in a as-if-she-could-ever-afford-or-maintain-that house and giving up on becoming the voice (or even a voice) of her generation.

But, whether you were expecting more from the finale or not, it’s safe to say that Girls did what Lena Dunham set out to do. It made us uncomfortable, it was confronting, it was truthful, and it was funny as hell.

To celebrate the end of the series (and while we sit back and hope for an Elijah spin-off or movie deal to surface), here, the most Girls moments from the past six seasons.
