Season 3 Review: Like a packed piñata of absurdity, each episode rains unforeseen treats, from physical pranks to existential banter to all manner of sexual exuberance. It’s all smartly visualized around town and briskly stitched together. Read full review

Season 2 Review: It's one of the most purely funny shows on television--where many "comedies" are really dramas in half-hour form, and others are likable but rarely laugh-out-loud funny--and it's only more confident, sharp and very much its own thing in the new season. Read full review

Season 4 Review: It’s engaging in a more serialized storytelling mode, the world itself, and time’s continual march forward. But these creators aren’t letting Trump’s patriarchy dictate their decisions. These scary forces don’t control Season 4; Glazer and Jacobson do, and they’ve never been more powerful.

Season 1 Review: Broad City has a more pronounced DIY vibe, a more surreal, sloppy and affectionate nature: The episodes are more narrowly focused on its two leads getting up to haphazard mischief. Read full review

Season 4 Review: The Broad City duo does not suddenly discover responsibility and sobriety. What instead happens is that the world inflicts some pain upon them, and the show guffaws at their gonzo squirming. Read full review

Season 2 Review: Nothing in the first few episodes of the new seasons rises to that level of madness [in the first season], but give the show another week or two, and I'm sure it'll get there. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Problem is, these same episodes lurch between nuanced observation of real-world trivialities and goofy sketch comedy exaggeration, and their flashes of spiky personality don't alleviate the feeling that, content-wise, the show is stuck in that regrettably familiar commercial cable bind: not safe, exactly, but not dangerous, either.

Hey what do you know, people getting into and experiencing hijinx in a clever way with thoughtful insight and witty one liners. You know, like, a well done comedy.

So good. I love how John Gemberling acts as a roommate. He's one of the smartest and funniest comedians I've ever heard.

Broad City is a very good show dedicated to conversation and the things we do to get by.

Absolute WORST show I’ve ever had the displeasure of watching. I choked down three episodes and would rather gouge my eyes out than watch another.

You could not pay me to sit through this....... 10 minutes into this and I couldn't take it any longer. The situational comedy is cringe, the jokes fall flat, the acting is terrible,the plot is unoriginal and the characters are simply unlikable.

I do not know how this show has lasted 4 seasons when other gems are cancelled after 2. This is the lowest effort comedy show I've ever seen.

The gags are reduced to screaming, toddler style physical humor, and failed attempts at tragedy comedy. It feels like every second is attempting to be comedic which ends up spoiling whatever comedy there could have been. Every line of dialogue is incredibly contrived, every gag, twist and surprise is trying so hard to be funny through absurdity that it's too absurd to be funny. Any sense of plot there could be is incoherent, choppy, and mostly predictable making it completely empty and useless. Every show or movie can sometimes have at least one element that's done correctly, here I found only the image and sound quality to be passable, and that's easily explained by buying good equipment. I have never reviewed a movie or show before. Never saw a need, this show is so bad i was driven to write a bad review. It's just THAT bad.… Expand
