‘Girls’ Series Finale: Hannah Grows Up
The series finale has become a site for elaborate overreaching (“Mad Men”’s Coke ad bliss out), absurdism (“The Sopranos”’s fade to black), and dreaminess (take your pick: the Seinfeld cast in jail, the group-hug on “The Mary Tyler Moore Show,” or the entire run of “Newhart” being a dream). Hannah (show creator Lena Dunham) had had her baby — a bouncing, 13-pound boy named Grover — and, for once true to her word, has moved out of New York City. A call for reinforcements was placed, and Hannah’s mom, Becky Ann Baker’s Loreen, arrived to provide an extra pair of arms and a lifetime of wisdom.

On “Girls,” there was an open call for “White Men Can’t Jump: The Musical,” and we finally got to hear the pipes on Elijah, played by “Book of Mormon” star Andrew Rannells. Singing “Let Me Be Your Star” from the hit show Bombshell — based on the hit TV show Smash — Elijah shone, and he was asked to stay for the monologue. When the dance tryout segment got started, Elijah was holding his own, but things took a dive when they brought in the basketballs and he had to do the same kicks, spins, and jumps while dribbling a basketball.

‘Girls’: Hannah Is Going To Be A Terrible Mother
Last week’s revelation on Girls that Lena Dunham’s Hannah Horvath is pregnant felt like an almost-typical final-season surprise: Of course Dunham could bless her character with child now — whether she sees the pregnancy through or terminates it, there are now only five episodes left of the 10-episode final season, so following through on the repercussions of either decision will be brief, right? Early in the episode, we see Hannah making a list of “Reasons It’s Insane To Have a Baby.” On the list: “I am only 27” and “I act even younger than that.” Those were the two that jumped out at me (trust me, Hannah, being “not good at sports” does not prevent you from parenting enthusiastically), and Hannah is nothing if not self-aware.

‘Girls’: Final-Season Fun and Fury
If, in the years since Lena Dunham ascended to pop-culture prominence with the debut of HBO’s “Girls” in 2012, you have felt some irritation with her for the apparent self-absorption, even self-obsession, she projects in essays and in squibs on social-media platforms, let me say: My friend, I feel ya. This is also true of what is now an array of men who’ve been treated to what we might call The Hannah Horvath Experience. The new season starts with Hannah having an essay published — in the New York Times’s “Modern Love” column — that grew out of last season’s triumphant monologue and was delivered at the storytelling showcase Moth (Dunham always gets the little Manhattan striver details right).
