Comedy Central’s Broad City is one of my favorite shows on TV if only because it’s a lot less cloying than Girls, but also because it’s genuinely hilarious. Last night, BFFs Ilana and Abbi tackled an issue near and dear to, well, someone’s heart: anal intercourse.
When Abbi finally gets a chance to hookup with her longtime crush — her hunky, bearish neighbor Jeremy — she’s surprised when he pulls out a dildo and strap-on, but being a modern cosmopolitan girl with not too many prospects, she’s game.
When Ilana’s parents casually find said dildo, they seem confused but not at all judgmental about Abbi topping her paramour.
Ilana’s (real-life) brother Elliot, however, explains that anal doesn’t discriminate.
How about we take this to the next level?

Broad City seems to have come out of nowhere… if you haven’t caught this show, you’re missing out.
Amy Poehler is one of the producers and they have tons of cameos from really funny comedians. It’s great!

Your banner says: “Queerty. Free of an Agenda. Except that Gay One.” The insipid, insulting “Broad Street” anal sex episode fails to impress as a real representation of the lives of LGBTI people. Furthermore, the fact is long-established that straight folks are wild for anal. The motivation of Queerty to post this crap continues to amaze.

@kouros: See this site for what it really is, and don’t judge it too harshly. it is: TMZ for gay people.

Maybe because the characters are straight? And it’s a comedy show? On television?

@petensfo:
I agree. I knew about it last year but didn’t watch. I caught an episode a few weeks ago (one o the girls goes to the dentist). OMFG it was so funny.
