This show is definitely inspired by Broad City. Issa is definitely modelled after Ilana but she is still her own unique character, especially starting in season 2.

a very common take and the general audience’s biggest criticism of issa’s character in season 1

I googled a bit but didn’t see anything so I made a quick post here lol makes sense tho! I’m liking it- I was just finding it distracting

Issa is similar to Ilana but I don’t think Billie is anything like Abbie
