It's the most unpredictable the show has been since it started, but that also comes with its own risks. I'm looking forward to seeing what the heck Girls becomes when it transitions into mid-twenties mode.

Excellent opener, but sensitive viewers may want to avert their gaze about eight minutes in during a comical/shocking kitchen encounter between Desi and Marnie. Enough said.

It was great to check in with everyone as Hannah prepared to leave for Iowa.

The show's sense of perceived reality is always on cue and it keeps it going when the show knows it's overtly pretentious and bitchy in tone. It's [a] good episode overall, but it didn't really give me anything to care about; not even Hannah.

So much of what gets accomplished here is either place-setting, loose-ends-tying, or reiterating beats we got at the end of season three.

If the show's four central relationships are going to devolve, we need new ones to replace them. Judging by how Hannah is faring at Iowa - well, I'm not optimistic.

Girls still delivers other memorable moments, though. And not all of them are gag-inducing. Dunham has written some terrific scenes for herself, and she also rises to the occasion of acting them out.

The new season of Girls begins in what I think of as the ideal Girls weather: warm with a chance of abhorrent antics.

Not to say Girls isn't still sharply written and gleefully gauche on occasion - I just wish this portrait of young, metropolitan America wasn't so grim.

It's hilarious, tear-summoning, and infuriating.
