Girls was a wonderful roller coaster of a show that gave a bird's-eye view into the raw, questioning angst of twentysomething life within a certain set of (perhaps overeducated) urban females. But alas, the ride, like all good things, must come to an end.
The sixth and final season of Lena Dunham 's magnum opus is currently filming, and while — stealthy paparazzi photos aside — it's anyone's guess what will happen in the final scenes, one thing is certain: We will have to say goodbye to the characters we have come to know so well. Starting, it seems, with Shoshanna and Jessa.
Actresses Zosia Mamet and Jemima Kirke, who play the aforementioned characters, were the first to wrap their final scenes on the series. Thanks to a little thing called Instagram, we get to come along for some of their last moments on set. And if you think bidding adieu to Shoshanna and Jessa will be hard for you, take heart in knowing that you're far from alone. Their co-stars are crying right along with you — complete with sad emoji, of course.
"Gonna miss these two too much," writes writer/producer Jenni Konner. Ditto, Konner. Ditto.

"And then, there were two...we're winding it down now," wrote Allison Williams. "Zosia and Jemima just finished shooting their last scenes for Girls for good. I'm too emotional to be eloquent, so I'll just say that I love you both a lot, and I'm so grateful for all your genius and sisterhood these last 6 years. And to Shosh and Jessa: I'll see you around the bend."
She then won our hearts by telling "Jessa" to "stay 'so fucking classy,'" and saluting Shosh with a panda bear. Broken-heart emoji, we couldn't agree with you more.

"Today was Zosia & Jemima's final day shooting Girls (Shoshanna & Jessa's too)," posted Dunham. "It's been the most beautiful 6 years, and these women will always be sisters (mine and each other's.) Sometimes all you have to do to become a family is make some art together and laugh a lot," Lena Dunham wrote.

"And that's a wrap. It has been an unforgettable 6 years," Mamet captioned this picture of her character's name tag from set. "To my GIRLS family, I adore you. To our fans, thank you for continuing to watch. And HBO, thank you for giving us a home. Shosh, it's been real...ill [sic] miss you all."
