Appearance on "GIRLS" final season?


The buzz is that Riz is going to be in some episodes of "GIRLS" final season. "GIRLS" seems like an odd choice for Riz.

Here's a link to some very blurry pics of Riz with Lena Dunham, the photos appear to have been taken in Montauk Long Island.

The pics are blurry, though Riz is easily recognizable in the photos.

They were up at someone's Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/p/BKqINmCD...by=helenebegun

There was a brief 'GIRLS" trailer up at HBO recently, it showed the Montauk scenes.

I didn't see Riz, the Montauk scene was interspersed with other clips, it was a quick edit type of scene. Lena was in the same outfit she had on in the leaked photos with Riz, it's possible Riz is appearing in that episode. .

If Riz is appearing on "GIRLS"....it's been a VERY well kept secret.

If that's true it'd be really cool. I have high hopes for the final season since the show was was so surprisingly good last season.

Lena Dunham has a great eye for talent. Girls has one of the strongest guest cast rosters.

Lena Dunham has a great eye for talent. Girls has one of the strongest guest cast rosters. I never got the accolades about "GIRLS". Too much whining and 'drama' coming from a bunch of spoiled young people. The only character I cared about is the cafe manager Ray, plus the actor is quite good. Jemima Kirke is also good, considering she has no training as an actress, she's a natural and obviously quite talented.

Lena Dunham has actually been the weakest link in the series, LD should have never cast herself in the lead, mostly because Lena isn't much of an actress. Doing so constantly caused critics and viewers to compare her with the Hannah character. Many saw Hannah as too close to Lena's own privileged background. Lena's parents are wealthy NYC artists.

I do agree the guest cast always consisted of top-notch actors and actresses. Don't assume Lena was the person casting for guest roles, the series does use a casting director. It always takes more than one person to make a series, or film, good or great. The behind-the-scenes creative people should also be acknowledged.
