Synopsis

Broad City (2014–2019) is Comedy Central's five-season comedy series you can watch online on iFILM, created by and starring Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer. The two play versions of themselves scraping by in New York City — underpaid, overscheduled, and somehow always in the middle of a situation that should not be happening to a person.

The show grew from a web series Jacobson and Glazer had been running since 2009 before Amy Poehler signed on as executive producer and helped bring it to cable. Abbi wants stability and keeps getting chaos. Ilana treats every disaster as a lifestyle choice she endorses. Together they deal with impossible landlords, worse bosses, and their own judgment — which rarely helps. Hannibal Buress appears throughout as Ilana's laid-back boyfriend Lincoln, a recurring island of calm in fifty episodes of escalating New York absurdity.

Female friendship on TV is usually the subplot. Here it's the whole architecture. Fifty episodes, no filler, and a version of New York that's broke, weird, and genuinely funny. Stream all seasons of Broad City (2014) online on iFILM.
