The Broad World of Broad City

The 11th Annual New York Comedy Festival came to a close with the much-anticipated panel discussion “Id Isn’t Always Pretty: An Evening with Broad City,” in which the cast and creative team behind Comedy Central’s Broad City discussed the show and upcoming season two. Moderated by beloved comedian Seth Rogen, the panelists included Executive Producer Amy Poehler, Ilana Glazer, Abbi Jacobson and Director Lucia Aniello. Taking place at The Paley Center for Media, the event delved into the beginnings of Broad City, it’s evolution, and what to expect in season two.

Broad City follows two young women in New York City on their crazy adventures with boys, drugs, and most importantly, each other. The cast spoke about how unlike many other shows currently on TV, the main romantic focus of this show isn’t about the girls’ relationships with men, but rather with each other. The main romance of the show is their friendship. The show started as a web series and just this past year was picked up by Comedy Central, which debuted its first season to much success. The panel spoke about what we can expect from season 2, including notable guest stars like Seth Rogen. Fans of the show will not be disappointed, check out the trailer for the upcoming season below!
