Girls #2 - Shiri gave us a lot to talk about

Girls



Character: Natalia
Episodes:
It's Back (Season 2, Episode 8)
On All Fours (Season 2, Episode 9
Together (Season 2, Episode 10)
Females Only (Season 3, Episode 1)
Quote:
On what drew her to the role of Natalia.
“I think just being given the opportunity to be a part of that show and working with Judd Apatow, Lena Dunham, and Jenny Konner. I just felt really excited and grateful. The character of Natalia is a really kind of sweet, kind of honest girl, and we get to see behind the veil, see what she’s like in situations she’s not expecting to be in and not in control of, and I thought it was really nice to play the idea of a perfect girl that has another dimension.”
Quote:
On the Girls character she relates to most.
“I think that at different times in your twenties, you feel more like one of those girls. Shoshanna is not really sure if she should be with the nice guy, Hannah is kind of searching for who she is and what her voice is, and Jessa is searching for her family and her belonging. I think at different stages in your twenties, you’re going through different phases, and each girl sort of signifies a different phase.”

True , But you have to agree Shiri's decision to finally shed her goody two shoe typecasted image as Liz Parker are in no way a small thing. Girl could be overhyped and overrated but Shiri has made a contribution in her own way. For me it felt like a milestone in Shiri's acting career.

I am one of those who is actually quite proud of what she did in Girls. The show is controversial, and is suppose to generate talk. Quite honestly what she did in Girls, and things that were said are way too common in real life. I am talking about the uncomfortable scene in "On All Fours". It was suppose to be uncomfortable, and make us wish we didn't watch it. Natalia didn't want to be part of what was happening, but in the real world saying 'no' isn't that easy anymore. The sad thing is that I find girls really realistic, and for Shiri to be part something like that I will just say: "You go girl!"

So, as shorter answer, I will not put anything that might diss Shiri's performance in this as the thread, because not everyone feels that way

I was just kidding with my title, it sounds good but I fully understand why you won't put it the title.

Attacking other posters is now tolerated on this board. Please refrain from fighting, because it is creating a hostile enviroment and people don't feel like posting into this thread anymore. I will also remind everyone that any kind of bashing of Shiri is not tolerated and if you are not happy with her choices or the opinion other people have, you don't have to take part in the conversation.

From next week's TV Guide Cheers and Jeers:
Quote:
Jeers to Girls for degrading Shiri Appleby. The likable actress made a nice love interest for Adam---until a needlessly graphic rough-sex scene ruined the mood. And she thought the aliens on Roswell were scary.

I don't like when people do that. When everyone behaves like it wasn't her choice. Also, that just feels like they haven't ever watched the show before!

I know I am repeating myself, but I will say it again: I think Shiri did an awesome job in Girls!
