HBO’s post-college coming-of-age series about young girls growing up in the recession, Girls, premiered to much fan fare last weekend. And, though the rest of the series will be kept behind HBO’s gated community, the pilot episode is available for free on Youtube (embedding disabled). Watch it here.

I know I should use twitter to tell you to watch the premiere of my show #Girls on HBO tonight at 10:30 but ALL I WANNA TALK ABOUT IS PIZZA!
