Editors' Picks: Our Favorites From the Week of Jan. 207 of 11
Goodbye of the Week
Bye bye, "Broad City." Comedy Central's sublime, surreal series kicked off its fifth and final season on Thursday, and while much has been written about the unique perspectives Ilana Glazer and Abbi Jacobson have brought to television, the aspect we'll miss the most is how perfectly the show captured the magic and misery of being young and broke in New York City, a weird-yet-wonderful kind of stasis where everything feels both possible and impossible at the same time. It's a kind of limbo that you only know if you've lived through it. How low can you go? Pretty low ... good thing you learn to laugh about it.
