This season of The Meltdown with Jonah and Kumail seems like it really caught the spirit of the weekly live show. They accomplished that by getting things like Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer from Broad City taking Jonah and Kumail’s clothes and pretending to be them on stage. 

Way more stuff like this is in store for this season. So, be sure to catch the premiere tomorrow night at 12:30AM on Comedy Central.

Hannibal Buress is on Broad City and The Eric Andre Show as well as all over the country and the world with his stand-up. On top of all of that, he’s about to start with his very own show Why? on Comedy Central.

So, with that a mind, catch a moment of Paul F. Tompkins catching a few moments (including one about how aware he is of what’s happening on The Eric Andre Show) with one of the funniest and busiest people in comedy, Hannibal Buress on the latest episode of Speakeasy.

While details are scarce, we have a hard time imagining why this wouldn’t be a home run.

Broad City’s Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer have sold an untitled feature project to 20th Century Fox and Paul Feig is on board to help them produce it. 

Neither of the three are committed to directing or starring and plot details or a premise aren’t being revealed, but that must have something good brewing. 

Maybe they’ll get even crazier with Chronic Gamer Girl?

Broad City’s Abbi and Ilana to Host One Club’s Annual Awards Show

Now that Amy Poehler and Tina Fey have stepped away from the awards hosting game for a minute, Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer could do well filling their shoes. 

The One Club is a non-profit organization that showcases the best in creative design, advertising, etc.

As the focus here is creativity, Abbi and Ilana should prove to be more than perfect hosts for the event. Maybe they’ll get a bunch of people on stage for a dance party?

We’re not sure what they got up their sleeve, but we do know this could be the beginning of being asked to host a whole slew of awards shows.

Paul W. Downs and Lucia Aniello Are Writing a Female Led Spin-Off of “21 Jump Street” and That “Men in Black” Crossover Is in Development

You could ask “What hath Chris Miller and Phil Lord wrought?” but all of this could be just as self-reflexively fun as the original 21 Jump Street.

Paul W. Downs and Lucia Aniello who both write on Broad City and together comprised Paulilu are now set to write a female centric spin-off of the 21 Jump Street franchise. Don’t be surprised if the duo that ends up together resemble the duo of Broad City’s Abbi and Ilana.

Now that the dust has settled from the Sony hack of last year and the recent WikiLeaks dump, the development of a Men In Black and 21 Jump Street crossover movie has been confirmed. We certainly hope that there’s plenty of jokes within the movie poking fun at how ridiculous this project could be, which seems to be a stamp of Miller and Lord’s.

We’re not sure how much Jenko, Schmidt, Miller, or Lord will be involved, but we do hope that this bodes well for that 21 Jump Street sequel where they go to art school.

The latest game on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon tries bring a little more gravity by merely having to choose between telling the truth or telling the truth.

Broad City’s Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer were more than up to the task in playing Truth or Truth with Fallon. Watch it here.

It’s great that Broad City will be getting another season at Comedy Central, but that does mean they have to put their live tour on hold. Ilana and Abbi are really sorry about it, but promise that they will honor tickets that have already been purchased at future dates. All this should mean is that it will be all the more special because of the longer time that we have to wait.

In fact, the dates for their fall tour have already been set, so make/remake your plans now.
