Hannah Horvath is here to stay.

Days before "Girls" Season 3 premieres (this Sunday at 10/9c), HBO has announced that the comedy has been renewed for a fourth season, to film this spring and air in 2015.

A year ago, "Girls" got its pick-up two episodes into the new season.







Highlights from the TCA Winter Press Tour:


Let's Talk About Sex, Baby…

Sunday’s Season 3 premiere will kick off a storyline that explores Jessa’s sexuality, it was revealed.




Grin And Bare It

When asked why there’s so much nudity on the show, star/creator Lena Dunham simply responded: “It’s a realistic expression of what it’s like to be alive.”

When the topic quickly resurfaced, executive producer Jenni Konner grew visibly and justifiably perturbed, declaring that it’d sent her into a “rage spiral.” Much awkwardness ensued.




The White Stuff

Are "Girls‘" girls sympathetic? “I love them,” said Dunham. “I think they accurately reflect people I know.”

Exec producer Judd Apatow defended the characters’ actions — e.g. cheating and experimenting with drugs – saying, “These aren’t that weird mistakes… It’s not really that shocking.”

Added Dunham, addressing the audience of critics: “You seem to like [Breaking Bad's] Walter White.”
