Broad City: “Apartment Hunters”

Introducing Endless Mode: A New Games & Anime Site from Paste
From the Hype Williams-inspired cold open, it was clear last night’s Broad City was going to be something special, but it’s only now that I realize “Apartment Hunters” is a pretty good metaphor for the show itself. Just like looking for a new apartment or finding out you don’t have herpes, it’s been equal parts exciting and stressful following Abbi and Ilana’s first year on television. After a stellar premiere and a just-as-strong follow-up, my expectations for the show grew to inflatable-Missy-Elliot-suit proportions. And when later episodes failed to fulfill that early promise, it looked troublingly like Broad City had prematurely run its course.
