Broad City is one of the most creative and laugh-out-loud funny comedies on TV today. Though the plots can be outlandish, Abbi and Ilana have captured 20s uncertainty, dating struggles and friendships to a T. They are also fearless - from what they will say, wear or do, which makes the show all the more delightful.

I was late to the game on this show - mostly skeptical because I assumed that like many other CBS dramas, the series was serviceable but not essential TV. How wrong was I? The Good Wife - minus a few questionable plotlines (Kalinda's ex-husband) and characters that any series over 3 seasons old likely experiences - is without a doubt one of TV's finest dramas. It is consistently well-written, gripping and relevant; the cases on this show are often ripped from the headlines, Law & Order style, but in a much more subtle way, often offering way more insightful commentary - particularly when the cases pertain to technology. Alicia is also without a doubt one of the - if not THE strongest female character on TV right now.

As I re-watch this series in 2014 I am delighted to report that it has held up over time. Though many years later, the plot and snappy pop-culture filled dialogue is still relevant as ever and Lorelai/Rory remains one of the best-ever depicted mother/daughter relationships on TV.
