    For fans of Girls and Too Much, there's a new show to fill the hole in your hearts in the form of I Love LA.

    The HBO series, created and written by lead actress Rachel Sennott, has truly hit the cultural zeitgeist, exploring influencer culture, internet addiction and the dysfunctional friendships of young adulthood.

    And with Sennott famed for her comedic skills, with her previous credits including Shiva Baby and Bottoms, the satyrical sitcom has become one of the "fastest growing original comedies" on HBO, and already renewed for a second season.
