In a video posted to the show’s official Twitter account, writers/creators/stars Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer shared that the[ wildly popular Comedy Central show’s](http://time.com/4259256/hillary-clinton-broad-city-video/) fourth season will be released in August 2017 and Glazer promises that “it’s gonna be, seriously, like so good.” Longtime viewers of the show will remember that the past three seasons of the show debuted during the winter season — case in point: last season started in February and ended in April — but keep in mind that both Jacobson and Glazer have had plenty of personal projects to attend to in the off-season. Until the episodes drop in August next year, you’ll have to content yourself with their announcement video, which you can watch below. > [](https://twitter.com/broadcity/status/806498604319969280) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4593795/broad-city-season-4-release-date/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4593795/broad-city-season-4-release-date/"},"headline":"The Broad City Girls Announced When They're Coming Back in a Very On-Brand Video","datePublished":"2016-12-07T18:28:23.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:39:15.786Z","description":"Yas queen!","url":"https://time.com/4593795/broad-city-season-4-release-date/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Entertainment","Television","broad city","Culture"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4593795/broad-city-season-4-release-date/","name":"The Broad City Girls Announced When They're Coming Back in a Very On-Brand Video"}}]}] ```
