Broad City’s Ilana Wexler was an iconic hot mess – but no matter how crazy life got she was always ready to find a way to make things work for her. And with the help of her best friend Abbi Abrams, there was no obstacle she couldn’t overcome. The duo itself is iconic, and Abbi’s struggles with work and life are incredibly relatable, but Ilana’s more free spirited nature made her standout as the unbothered badass we all want to be in our 20s. Let’s take a look at the impact of Ilana Wexler, how she was relatable and aspirational, and what makes her hedonistic character so enduring a decade later.

Wish this show never ended. I feel like the hole this show left has never been filled. It was very unique and the duos chemistry was unmatched.

I always describe Broad City as Cheech and Chong but if they were two 20-something Jewish Millennial women living in NYC

Up to this day, Broad City is still my favorite show about female friendship. We all need Ilanas to our Abbys and vice versa :)

I miss this show so much! I need to rewatch it because their vibe, energy, and friendship were so relatable to me in high school when it came out. Though I relate a bit less so now, I love Abbi and Ilana!!! Such good chemistry!!!!

I dunno if I call her a Hot Mess, because Ilana unlike say a Bridget Jones, reveled in the chaos. As an aside, the title cards seem to ve a little minimalistic lately, anyone notice?
