Back in September, Lena Dunham told her Lenny newsletter that she thought Girls should probably end after its sixth season. â€We’re starting to think about sort of how to wrap up the story lines of these particular young women,†she said. “I started working on this show when I was 23, and now I’m going to be 30 so it kind of feels right that this show kind of sandwiched my 20s and then I go off into the world!†Now, amazingly, it appears the show’s writer, director, and star has gotten her wish: As first reported by E! and later confirmed by HBO, season six will indeed be the season we say good-bye to Girls. The final episodes of Girls are expected to air in 2017 — which, coincidentally, is also the year you’ll finally be priced out of Greenpoint.
