HBO has announced that Lena Dunham’s critically discussed series "Girls" will return for a limited five-episode run, exactly a decade after its original series finale. Creator and star Lena Dunham is set to return alongside key original cast members Allison Williams, Jemima Kirke, Zosia Mamet, and Andrew Rannells.
The revival brings the series back to television in a markedly different America compared to when the show originally aired. During its initial run, "Girls" strongly polarized viewers and sparked cultural conversations that extended far beyond its immediate audience size.
