good rebound from the wedding ep

saw the racist dating service thing coming but still lol'd

omg poly, i had no idea
ilana is demolishing me right now

OK, the finale was all kinds of awesome. Poehler did a stellar job directing.

I really hope we don't have to wait until 2015 for the next season.

We almost certainly do.

dayum that penis is pink!

"Aaaaahhhhhhhhhhh... Pick me up! ...aaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

So my boyfriend from college asked if I'd seen this the other day (which I haven't) because he said that one of the women from this crossed with Hannah off girls reminds him of the me of the past and made a point of saying that wasn't meant to be insulting but rather endearing. Now I feel like I have to watch this.

Those last two episodes more than made up for the wedding episode. Love how Abbi is always the one who, when pushed, goes totally insane.

that wedding episode was hilarious--the bus scene was fantastic

Just got hipped to this, fucking love it.

the subway pole gag made me laugh so hard

This...THIS was some Jerry-Lewis-elevator-gag-level shit. Brilliant.

my girlfriend HATES this (one simple) show and it bums me out pretty hard

I have been introduced to this show. Some episode where they were trying to hook up with dudes at the bar and a phone was lost. Hannibal Buress delivering the line "I wouldn't submit a dog to the hectic life of a dentist!" about slayed me.

lol @ the 'push it' knock-off, perfect.

Longish profile of them in the New Yorker last week was kinda interesting.

weirdly timed tho

Love this show.

xp wut

i was bored and bought the first episode. it was a struggle not to turn it off and delete it from my life w/in 20 seconds. i got up, had a glass of water, and eventually made it through the whole episode and it wasn't as horrifying as I might have imagined. I guess I am just not remotely interested in comedies about this demographic, unless they are really, really good, which this is decidedly not.

20something jewish people in NY should just volunteer to help make TV shows by and/or about other people.

insert UMC somewhere in there

what a shame we won't be blessed with similar analyses of the other episodes

I know, right?

first episode is good; #2 and #3 are so, so funny (abbi's physical comedy in the dentist's office and rachel dratch's cameo are big highlights) and from those episodes onward this became basically my favourite show.

i've been aggressively recommending it to friends and they've all loved it too.

YOU'RE a mom!

maybe i should give later episodes a try

or i could just watch red dawn on cable

Yeah this show's great. It took me a few eps to get into but they are both pretty funny and rad.

I think the fact that they are great is key. Even when an ep is sort of eh the pair of them are always great. Plus Hannibal.

or i could just watch red dawn on cable

I hope to god you're talking about the Swayze one, otherwise...

oh yeah, I'm a Swayze purist.

maybe I'll give Broad City another chance. some of the clips were funny. i am pretty tired of shows abt young, temporarily poor ladies working in the culture industries in NYC, but who knows.

Then don't watch them you big silly

They dont work in the culture industry btw

they illustrate and stuff, right?

they seem like culture-industry aspirants

but maybe i'm wrong

Aren't we all?

one cleans bathrooms in a fancy gym

The other has a bottomfeeder temp job she doesnt even bother doing

They are both permanently poor afaict

The only character w money is the dentist

Ilana's parents bail her out from time to time, iirc, which is played up for laughs.

they are temporarily poor, and at least one aspires to be a graphic artist

This show isn't about what they do for a living. I mean... I don't think of Laurel and Hardy as a story about piano movers.

Abbi's artistic aspirations are pretty quickly exposed as delusional. her art is m/l objectively awful iirc. it's just another joke they're playing with.
