Consistently one of TV’s best comedies, Comedy Central’s Broad City has finally settled on a return date. The show’s creators and stars, Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer, announced via Twitter that Season 4 is set to premiere sometime in August 2017:
It’s a longer wait than usual, as each of Broad City’s first three seasons debuted in the first quarter of the year. But the delay should be worth it, at least—it seems that the show only gets better with each passing year, and last season’s episode “Burning Bridges,” in particular, took the show in a surprisingly great (if sad) new direction.
Broad City also included Hillary Clinton as a guest star for Season 3, with Jacobson and Glazer vocally supportive of the Democratic nominee going back to primary season. Given recent events, it’ll be interesting to see how they respond to the current political climate: While Broad City’s NYC adventures can often feel blissfully removed from what’s going on in the news, the expected insanity of the incoming Trump administration might be too compelling for the show to resist.
