    Do you remember all the TV shows that did the "it's her turn" episodes? Broad City was the big edgy comedy, and then they were hitting the other end of the spectrum with quirky New Girl. Her campaign spent a lot of money associating itself with a certain brand of #girlboss feminism.

      Yeah Broad City used to be the show me and my best friend would watch super stoned on lazy weekend afternoons and we thought the Hilldawg episode was the funniest shit until the last ten minutes where we went "Oh, this is entirely sincere"

        This. Me and my partner rather liked it although thought it had been getting worse. Half way through that episode we both thought there was going to be some sort of knowing twist. When there wasn't we were just like, oh, I suppose this is just basically Girls now and pretty much gave up on it.
