More details are beginning to surface about Time Traveling Bong, TV’s greatest show about a bong… that time travels. The series centers on two cousins who discover the aforementioned bong and “ride high as they blaze through time.” One of the cousins, Broad City‘s Ilana Glazer, told Entertainment Weekly that she and writers Lucia Anello and Paul “Another Pube Situation” Downs (who co-stars) “want it to be Comedy Central’s [The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story].” If that means John Travolta as the voice of the bong, yes.
Will they get into wacky misadventures? According to Entertainment Weekly, only the wackiest!
We go the Salem Witch Trials, obvs. We meet Michael Jackson. We go to paleo times, which in real life, I’m like, I would kill it in paleo times. I would rule my tribe. And then we go to the future.
That’s how the description for all shows should end. “We meet a New Jersey mob boss who’s in therapy. And then we go to the future.” (I’ve always thought The Sopranos should have spent more time in 2183.) Glazer also said, “we just shat out the first producer cuts” and she was impressed with the show’s stupidity. “On Broad City, we’re like, ‘We dumb!’ It’s like so stupid, but people are like, ‘they know what they’re doing! So they’re like, it’s smart,’ but we’re like, ‘no, no, no – it’s so stupid.’ Time Traveling Bong is also so stupid, and we’re also like ‘that’s smart [too],’ but it’s not.” Time Traveling Bong, the stupidest smartest show about a time traveling bong you’ll see all year.
