Abbi and Ilana are about to get a very famous third wheel.
On Friday, Comedy Central announced that Hillary Clinton will appear in an upcoming episode of “Broad City,” which returns for its third season Feb. 17.

The buddy comedy stars Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer as pot-smoking twentysomething best friends making their way in New York City. With its frequently bawdy storylines revolving around awkward sexual encounters, recreational drug use and the glories of Bed Bath & Beyond, “Broad City” has earned a devoted fan base and inspired a slew of memes.
The series is executive produced by Amy Poehler, whose career seems inextricably tied to that of the former secretary of State: She impersonated Clinton for years on “Saturday Night Live” and also played the Clinton-worshipping, small-town politician Leslie Knope for seven seasons on NBC’s “Parks and Recreation.”
The network did not disclose details about Clinton’s role, but it’s probably safe to assume she won’t inhale.
