i thought the joek abt the racist dating site thing fell flat, was too idk hack sitcom bait-and-switch-y or something, but the rest of this ep was p good. this show is v good, well done all involved.

I thought that joke would've been better if the racism was more subtle dog-whistle style. Like obv that it was racist but not so blatant and cartoony. Sedaris was a little over the top too but generally I thought the episode was killer.

SWC really does hold up. Haven't seen this new BC ep yet tho.

I remember watching the movie in the theater and my friends and I were the only people in there besides a couple who I knew.

I guess I'm not as picky but all the episodes of this show so far have been good to great IMO. Top 2 were probably the package delivery episode and the hurricane episode.

Yeah I love this show and have very few, very minor complaints.

Oh it's all good, except for the wedding ep, which is almost all bad, strangely enough. My wife loves this. She said it's like Workaholics "but with more girl stuff."

Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 20 March 2014 20:45 (ten years ago) link

Also way funnier than Workaholics this season.

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

Simon H., Thursday, 27 March 2014 03:33 (ten years ago) link

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

Herbie Handcock (Murgatroid), Thursday, 27 March 2014 04:24 (ten years ago) link

We almost certainly do.

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.

Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 2 April 2014 01:17 (ten years ago) link

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

waterbabies (waterface), Wednesday, 2 April 2014 13:15 (ten years ago) link

Just got hipped to this, fucking love it.

the subway pole gag made me laugh so hard

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.

o. nate, Wednesday, 25 June 2014 13:38 (nine years ago) link

weirdly timed tho

johnny crunch, Wednesday, 25 June 2014 15:17 (nine years ago) link

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

polyphonic, Thursday, 26 June 2014 00:16 (nine years ago) link

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.

Neanderthal, Thursday, 26 June 2014 00:27 (nine years ago) link

maybe i should give later episodes a try

or i could just watch red dawn on cable

I dunno. (amateurist), Thursday, 26 June 2014 00:28 (nine years ago) link

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

©Oz Quiz© (Adam Bruneau), Thursday, 26 June 2014 00:32 (nine years ago) link

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.

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.

I dunno. (amateurist), Thursday, 26 June 2014 14:31 (nine years ago) link

Then don't watch them you big silly

da croupier, Thursday, 26 June 2014 14:33 (nine years ago) link

They dont work in the culture industry btw
