Broad City, the cult-favorite web series from Upright Citizen's Brigade alums Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer, has led an interesting life. In 2010, 18 episodes of the series were created; one year later, the show's YouTube channel posted a teaser for a future series produced by Amy Poehler (a fellow Upright Citizen's Brigade member) that was set to develop on FX. Now, in 2012, the show is still on its way, but with a pilot order from Comedy Central. With Awkward Black Girl creator Issa Rae's new series coming to ABC, Broad City is the second female-led comedy from a web creator to get picked up for TV. While Rae's show will be unique from her web hit, Jacobson and Glazer will not (yet) move into new territory on their new distribution platform. They'll stick with the same premise that made Broad City such a hit: a look into the life of two cosmopolitan ladies beset by a combination of Girls-esque anxiety and Curb Your Enthusiasm-style social faux pas
