HBO's 'Girls' Hits Too Close To Home For Millennials

Does 'Girls' Hit Too Close To Home?

In the opening scene of HBO's new show "Girls," Hannah, a 23-year-old college grad living in New York City, flips out when her parents tell her she's cut off-they're not giving her anymore money.

As two professors, they simply can't afford it anymore, her mother says, and besides, her mom wants to afford luxuries of her own, such as a lake house. Why should they continue paying Hannah's rent, two years after college graduation?
