Luckily, she had been placed with Jenny Connor, who was a very established television writer at the time.
as well as Judd Apatow, who had worked with Jenny previously, and they both were able to guide her.
But she had, like, eight weeks to find a cast, a crew, to build sets.
I mean, it was, like, very little time.
Obviously, I feel like if you're listening to this episode, you know about girls, so I'm not going to walk you through, like, who started it and who got cast.
Everybody knows.
But I do think it was fascinating...
Getting sort of like a bird's eye view of what it took for her to make the pilot.
Feeling so sort of, I think, like kind of scared to share her story and then really diving into the collaboration.
Like this seems to be like one of the first moments where this sort of obsession with belonging and sort of mixing friendship with a professional job setting starts to happen in a real way.
Did you have any thoughts on the girl's pilot sequence or anything in this area?
I was a little older than her, and I remember watching Tiny Furniture where everyone was like, that ending, that ending.
And she gets fucked in an industrial drum outside by this guy who's kind of a loser.
And I was like, yeah, that's just what sex is.
I was the opposite.
I'd had so many bad boyfriends.
That's so crazy.
That I was like, why are people so shocked by it?
I was really, I was shocked that people were shocked because I was like, that's just what being in your late 20s and the late 2000s was like.
Like, I didn't realize it was like prolific until later on watching it again, being like, oh, right, that was of a time.
