In the first season of the hit HBO series Girls, lead character Hannah Horvath, played by creator Lena Dunham, navigates her complex personal and professional life as an aspiring writer in New York City after her parents cut off financial support.

Now slated to return to HBO on January 13, 2013, Girls will kick off its second season with each character striving to take charge of their lives, while experiencing the inevitable pitfalls along the way as shown in the trailer below.

At The New Yorker Festival this fall, Dunham spoke with the magazine’s television critic Emily Nussbaum on finding inspiration to write for Girls. Dunham explained that some of her story arcs on bad dates came from her experiences in real life.

    That trailer definitely is
    pretty interesting, so I may just have to check out what this show has to
    offer. I haven’t seen the first season just yet, but I have heard a lot of
    great things about it from some of the girls I work with at DISH. I did notice
    the entire first season is free on DISH Online, so I’ll most likely catch up from
    there before the second season premieres. If it’s anything like the trailer, and
    what my coworkers have told me, than I’m sure I’ll enjoy it. I’ll make sure to
    set a recording timer to my DVR from that site as well if I do end up liking
    it! Thanks for sharing! :)
