When it evolved into a full-length cable comedy series in , audiences were already familiar with the universe inhabited by Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer. It depicted the world in Girls, of unpaid internships, cramped living conditions, and disastrous sexual experiences. Except Jacobson and Glazer, united by their love of getting high and their love for each other, were funny all the time. The New York they lived in looked like the one inhabited by Lena Dunham but it was free from anxiety, depression and pretension.
Broad City was also multicultural, a failing of Girls that Dunham and co-creator Konner have admitted to and apologised for. It would be reductive to label Insecure the black Girls but, like Dunham, Rae writes, directs and stars in her show. At their hearts, all these shows revolve around relationships.
But two series that debuted towards the end of last year take the types of characters and the environment synonymous with Girls and use them to move in a different direction. Search Party effortlessly pulls off a tricky balancing act. In her real life as an activist, an author, a public personality and a prolific social media presence, Lena Dunham has become an object of ridicule. She hears the criticism, tried to address it and often apologises. I wish the thing people would admire about her more is how much she is trying to grow publicly.
But in her creative life, Dunham has accomplished a great deal in a comparatively short time. Her influence has freed up other performers from the constraints of what a female-driven comedy is expected to look like. But not too much. Photograph: HBO.
