In the near-decade since Lena Dunham's groundbreaking HBO dramedy Girls aired its final episode, its creator and star has taken a big step back from the spotlight. Though she has written, directed, and produced a handful of projects in the intervening years—including the 2018 HBO comedy series Camping and 2022 medieval comedy film Catherine Called Birdy —Dunham herself has said she took an "intentional break" from the public eye in response to the intense scrutiny that surrounded her during Girls ' six-season run (especially in relation to a number of controversies for which she was facing backlash).

Megan Stalter from 'Hacks' stars in this London-set romantic comedy series that would have been better off as a two-hour film.
