Inside Amy Schumer vs. Broad City

Which do you like better? I have to go with Broad City. It has made me laugh harder, and while I do find Amy Schumer funny, sometimes her show seems a little too out there without being creative enough to justify it.

IMO....Amy's highs have been so much higher than Broad City's.

But, Amy's lows have been so much lower than Broad City's.

I usually do not watch either unless there is a very large positive consensus of that particular sketch/episode. Then I'll seek it out.

I agree with this.

I like them both. Broad city is a bit dark humor. Amy's show is more sarcasm.

Huh? There's nothing dark about Broad City. It's easier to relate if you're a millennial, though.

If I don't reply, you're most likely on my ignore list

Some of Schumer's bits are funny. Broad City is just garbage. It's supposedly a comedy, but I've never seen anything funny in it. Ilana is annoying. The "story" is basically just sex & drugs. 

I think Broad City is hilarious. Inside Amy Schumer has turned into preachy boring garbage. If I want to watch or read about current political events I go to a news source, I watch comedy to laugh. Broad City is all about going for a laugh, they're not trying to hammer any sort of message home.

I go with the Schu-meister. I have always liked the sketch comedy format - as a genre, as it gives us more variety within the same one episode of the given show. "Broad City" goes for sitcom-style long-form narratives, which - to me, at least - end up sort of middling, and not especially funny.
