Put down your Robyn cassettes and Mystic Pizza VHS tapes because I’ve got good news and bad news. The good news: Emmy Winning Reality TV Production Company – Seeking Real Life “Girls” is an ad up on Craigslist right now that thousands of Marnie and Hannahs have already replied to. The bad news: 150,000 people died today.
Let’s go through the posting for the show; it’s too good not to.
Ever feel like life in the big frantic city is just too much?
Boy do I. Just this morning, I was trying to have a conversation with this man on the train when…
Are you a twenty-something young woman seeking fame, fortune, love or even a hookup with potential?
Um, I wasn’t done answering your first question. Plus, I’m engaged and, ahem, clearly a man. *flexes arms that instantly sag like in a Popeye cartoon* But I do like fame and/or fortune. Please continue.
How do you get from here to there when you can’t even get a seat on the L train!
Where is there? Am I here? The hell are you talking about? Why doesn’t your question end with a question mark%
Come to a casting call with our Emmy-winning production company and tell us your dreams and woes, your highs and lows, your tales of *** in the city
I see what you did there. But let’s dissect this: lots of shows have won Emmys. Everybody Loves Raymond won about 48 of them. Why can’t you reveal which “Emmy-winning production company” you are? Furthermore…
Is your circle of friends bound together by not just the parties, fights, and brunches but frequent bouts of commiserating over your struggles? It isn’t easy taking the road less travelled, but making it as a writer, designer, entrepreneur, actress/model or glorified dog walker never is!
STOP CUTTING ME OFF. I’M A TWENTYSOMETHING CREATIVE TYPE LIVING IN BROOKLYN WHO, WHEN NOT WORKING AS A BARISTA, WALKS FERRETS AND PICKS UP OLD NEWSPAPERS TO BUILD INTO WACKY HATS FOR SENIOR CITIZENS. I AM INDIVIDUAL, I AM REALER THAN REAL, I AM THE PROUD OWNER OF A BANDCAMP ACCOUNT, AND I DESERVE BETTER. I. Am…Girls. *Record scratch*
The real life television show we are making follows the trials and tribulations of an ensemble of wise-beyond-their-years young ladies.

I was actually thinking of Bitch Hunter.
Well we didn’t say it but…now that you mention it.
Please, someone reading this, apply. You, too, can be as famous as a Girl or even a Gallery Girl.

Patty Boots…your moment has come.
I haven’t even lived in NYC for two and a half years!
Besides, nobody wants to watch a reality show about a chick who spent last Friday night watching Fringe with her cat.
I would love to judge you if my dog didn’t love the sound of Walter’s voice.
Oh, please, you’re rationalizing, Patty! No need for that when it comes to television. The don’t USE reality in reality tv anymore. Once they’ve properly stereotyped you for television you’ll fit right in. Like a gay friend and a women’s shoe sale.
I, too, enjoy fingering Allison Williams (or so I would assume), so that’s me qualified.
I liked this when it was Sex and the City. I liked it better when it was Golden Girls.
Is it wrong that I’m hoping this was a bait & switch ploy by a Middle Eastern slave trader?
Forget the slave trade, these girls are supposed to come from money. Kidnap the shit out of them and take their family’s fortune!
Your Bitch Hunter reference made me laugh Josh.
Also this show, if it’s real, is going to be so bad I’ll absolutely have to watch.
“Seeking Real Life “Girls” is an ad up on Craigslist right now that thousands of Marnie and Hannahs have already replied to. The bad news: 150,000 people died today.”
Based on that phrasing, I’m going to assume that those people that died are the same people that replied, and very much disagree with your bad news assessment.
“The real life television show we are making follows the trials and tribulations of an ensemble of wise-beyond-their-years young ladies.”
I stopped watching the show at precisely the point in Season 1 where the two main characters decided to playfully dance their cares away in a slumber party atmosphere to close out an episode and I forgot the names of my childhood pets from the tiny aneurysm that stemmed from watching it, but isn’t the point of the show that the characters are emotionally stunted well beneath their age and trying to find their way in the world?
Ah, but the girls the ad is speaking to are the kind that are emotionally stunted but think they are wise beyond their years. Sounds like good marketing to me.
I would definitely watch this if Will Ferrell randomly broke down doors and shot everyone with a Nerf gun.
Lil’ Bitch Hunter.
I had something for this…..
this place is gonna be crawling with low self esteem chicks in clicks of 3 or more. oh the possibilities. i’m gonna be out there wit a pop up cupcakes shop, cuz bitches be eating cupcakes
So who is gonna be the person to break it to these TV execs that less than a million people actually watch “Girls”?
wise-beyond-their-years young ladies.
Yeah, that’s pretty much my biggest critique the interpretation of Girls.
Also, this sounds aweful, like Sex in the City 2 awful.
I’m not a 20-something or a girl, but I live on the street where they film lots of scenes for the show. That would give the show some credibility, right? They should pick me.
As long as I don’t have to fuck the ugly naked chick with the bad tattoos.
THIS IS AN AD CREATED BY A CULTURALLY LITERATE SERIAL KILLER!!!!!! REPORT SPAM
Narcissistic assholes are getting a reality TV show made about them? No ways.
Ugh, thanks for reminding me of Gallery Girls, asshole.
