2 Broke Girls

Right now you can watch 2 Broke Girls in Australia on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, and in the UK on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video — and it is funnier than its reputation suggests. 6 seasons of it means there is plenty to get through without ever feeling padded. 1,744 people have weighed in on TMDB, and the verdict leans heavily positive. Kat Dennings leads a cast with real comic timing. Available now on Netflix — press play and find out why people keep recommending it.

2 Broke Girls is not trying to be everything to everyone, and that focus is exactly what makes it work. The jokes in 2 Broke Girls land because the characters underneath them are worth caring about. Comedy about the unlikely friendship that develops between two very different young women who meet waitressing at a diner in trendy Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and form a bond over one day owning their own successful cupcake business. Only one thing stands in their way – they’re broke. Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs lead a cast that never overplays a joke. It ran for 6 seasons (2011–2017), and the writing holds up across every one of them. 2 Broke Girls earns its laughs from character rather than situation, which is why it does not wear thin the way pure farce tends to. There is real craft here, even in the moments that do not fully land.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, 2 Broke Girls is a strong candidate. Fans of Will & Grace will recognise the sensibility here immediately. The 6-season run rewards the patience it asks of you. Kat Dennings sets the tone, but the supporting cast is where a lot of the best moments come from. A reliable pick for any night you want quality comedy without the homework.

2 Broke Girls was cancelled in 2017, created by Whitney Cummings and Michael Patrick King — and 6 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
