This petition originated from a discussion on r/Girls on Reddit, which is linked below.
We’re starting this petition because we truly believe a Mexican adaptation of Girls would make sense creatively and culturally. Mexico City feels like the right place for it. It's the most populated city in all of north america with a population of 22 million people. It’s intense, ambitious, artistic, chaotic, and full of young people trying to build lives for themselves. So many young adults here are balancing unstable jobs, big dreams, complicated friendships, family pressure, and identity in a city that both inspires and overwhelms you. That kind of environment naturally fits the spirit of the original show, but with its own voice and cultural perspective. We believe Lena Dunham could collaborate with Mexican writers, directors, and actors to create something culturally specific and authentic. There is so much talent in Mexico and across Latin America that deserves more visibility, and a project like this could help shine a real spotlight on it. There are already many fans who want to see this happen. At the same time, a Mexican adaptation could connect with an entirely new audience. Young adults in Mexico and throughout Latin America would finally see their own experiences reflected in a story like this, which could expand the show’s reach in a meaningful way. This is merely a suggestion, but if it gets enough attention, perhaps we could get Lena to consider this :) Viva Mexico!!
We, fans of Lena Dunham and the TV show "Girls", call on Lena to consider making a Mexican adaptation of "Girls"!
