Abbi and Ilana are back in August for Broad City season 4.
Comedy Central tends to use its post-South Park timeslot to launch new series. Last season Legends of Chamberlain Heights turned that generous lead-in into a season two order. When South Park season 21 premieres this fall, the network is putting heavy hitters behind it, Abbi and Ilana. Broad City season 4 will premiere after South Park on August 23rd at 10:30 p.m.
That's a big show of confidence for Broad City from the network. The move could help bring creators Ilana Glazer and Abbi Jacobson find a new and bigger audience. Broad City remains a consistent hit for Comedy Central, but the Live+Same Day ratings are typically under a million viewers. South Park still does strong live ratings, close to 2 million viewers each week, but even those numbers have dipped in recent seasons.
Broad City season 4 will comprise 10 episodes. This season, Abbi and Ilana will get new jobs, meet Abbi’s parents, and go to *gasps* Florida.
