I should have added, those who have seen the scenes in Girls and American Horror Story should have pre-eminence.

Tangentially:
What's the deal with the show Girls? I don't get HBO, but salon.com hasn't been this obsessed with something since Barack Obama appeared on the political scene. It's kind of creepy how much they obsess on this show. Everything I read about it makes me think it's Sex in the City with a dumpy hipster instead of Sarah Jessica Parker.

The key is her eye for minutiae. In the most recent episode, there's a 5 second scene of her trying to do the workout being shown on the TV that's the most depressing and endearing scene I've seen in a long while. A while back in season 1 there was an extended scene where a rich guy who had lured two hotties to his impressive crib, but they were amused with him than impressed, and he loses his shit in an impressively inventive way. You have to see the scenes to realize their import. There's no more I can say. It's the epitome of a a 'you had to see it' situation. Watch 2-3-4 episodes of the show and come back and discuss is all I can advise. I've never seen anything so contemporaneously repellent and adorable in a long while.

Off the top of my head I'd go with Lolita and Midnight Express,the latter was more uncomfortable than awkward for me personally.

And I didn't even mention Adam who may be one of the most brilliant characters in TV history, with practically nothing to do. He'll be a seeming complete asshole for so long, then mutter the most endearing rationale under his breath that more than excuses it, it makes it the exact right thing to do.
Like I said, you have to see it to understand.

Who would have thought they'd EVER see a scene where someone was peeing in the weeds at a rural train station, on the phone with her parents whining from her UTI?
Like I said, hilarious, repellent and adorable.

Other than that, the most redeeming character on the show is either Adam or Ray, in my opinion. Both guys are brutally honest about who they are, to a fault almost. Everyone else seems to be all about mememememememememe. Maybe I am just a grouch... |

That did not end well.
