Abbi Jacobson on the fun of picking guest stars for ‘Broad City’

Comedy Central's “Broad City” is the perfect platform for stars Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer to show off the weirder and funnier parts of having a like-minded best friend in New York. Sometimes their antics are downright bizarre and other times the show subverts its gonzo sense of irreverence with sweetness. At any rate, the show has attracted some excellent guest-stars, including Janeane Garofalo, Susie Essman, Seth Rogen, and — in an upcoming second-season finale — Patricia Clarkson. 

We chatted with Jacobson at Paleyfest to discuss the fun of picking guest-stars, her proudest funny moments, and her biggest pet peeve.
