Broad City's Abbi & Ilana - Elaine Dance Tribute for Julia Louis-Dreyfus | 2018 Mark Twain Prize

[@hongkongcantonese501]

One of my fondest memories is of my mother laughing hysterically at the Elaine dance. 5 minutes of non-stop joy.

[@Discordia5]

The idea of that made me laugh. 😂

[@millymillymilly]

I so badly wanted the camera to go to JLD!! I wanted to see her reaction!

[@caramama1731]

Yeeeees!!

[@tanyakarazan8094]

Right like who the hell filmed produced and edited this without her reaction it’s useless!

[@rachelissocoollike]

I WATCHED THE WHILE THING JUST FOR THE REACC

[@yopk6865]

It probably was not good. Hence why they don't cut to her

[@daphneyandersen1235]

@@yopk6865 Hhmmm......do you think she was offended? It was funny and cheeky, but JLD has always seemed uptight to me. Cheers.

[@spidrawebster]

This may be one of the best, most salient dance routines I've ever seen at an awards ceremony. I only wish they'd made a separate video of JLD's reaction to it. I imagine it really genuinely made her bust up.

[@billysmith1480]

Seeing someone use the word salient in a comment brings me more joy than this dance routine.

[@sharonsolana]

Had to google salient.

[@rubyrayne8]

I think they didn’t cut to her for a reason. Like, the one time she did she looked pissed.

[@jyreHeffron]

Im just awestruck by the existence of this tribute dance...from the hilarious but graceful choreography to the deep honor it represents... the dance is almost as groundbreaking as an artistic statement as JLD's comedic work was... It's truly an offering of love...

[@phaedrus4931]

The audience getting into it helped bring that bit home. Was anyone aware how intensely well produced the Mark Twain Awards are now?

[@AT-sd9qq]

I love how they cover not only the Elaine dance but other things she did like you stole my Jesus fish and the shove.

[@Fancynancytv]

That actually gave me goosebumps

[@RedPanda79]

They seem so much fun to hang out with, I miss their show

[@ArelisErica]

Julia needs to be in Broad City!!!!!!!!!

[@alankarjoey258]

I feel like she is, in a sense

[@modernlover0rosalyn]

She has! Made a cameo with Tina Fey, its really funny

[@abe443]

modernlover0rosalyn Are you thinking of last fuckable day from Inside Amy Schumer?

[@modernlover0rosalyn]

@@abe443 oh crap! She hasn't! You're totally right, sorry internet! :( Ok so she really should make an appearance on Broad City especially since it'll be the last season...

[@DaneWinehouse]

Too late. Never gonna happen.

[@awesomekoga7848]

LOVED this! They totally smashed this dance! Nailed it! What an honor for Julia. Her epic dance will be remembered by all Seinfeld fans. She was one of my favorites, along with Kramer. 💜💕❤️

[@CHRISTisKing197]

Elaine Kramer and George totally made that show. Watching reruns I notice that Jerry really wasn't that great. That show would have bombed without the extremely talented cast!

[@blahblah3485]

I literally cannot wait to see what these 2 talents do next after broad city.

[@gargantuaism]

You had to use the word "literally" in that sentence? What did that add?

[@7layerburrito]

@@gargantuaism your reply didn’t add anything either sherlock

[@laurenclear8978]

@@gargantuaismgenerally, the word “literally” is used when adding emphasis to something that means a lot to someone. It is a colloquial term, you are correct in that sense. However, it doesn’t negate joyful feelings! Hope that clears up your question! It’s actually quite shocking that someone your age had to ask that question. But it’s never too late to learn, I guess!

[@laurenclear8978]

I am so excited about that, as well!

[@charlenemack7040]

This is exactly where that saying comes in. Practice makes perfect. And it did! 😊👍 👏👏👏👏👏

[@gshak33]

Gosh this makes me really want the new/last season of Broad City even more.

[@lyn5420]

Child0fMercury Yeah they’re done filming it but i think it’s the last one :,,,))

[@frankgarcia8992]

I thought season 5 was last. I likes that show. Really funny. Way better than sex in the city. I cannot see the pepe... aayyy!! Lmbo!!!

[@hammun6]

This is what real fandom is supposed to look like. Where are JLD's reactions, though?

[@privatejr2702]

Murilo Melo they would have showed it if she was enjoying it I think

[@tokie357]

Yeah so weird, this was great but missing something with no reactions

[@natashasemrau3670]

Thanks for sharing this wonderful bit of comedy from the Broad City Women to honor Julia Louis Dreyfus. That's the way l like to see women praise eachother. Funny!😍😘😄😅😆😍😘🤗

[@kellykling6884]

This is truly the most beautiful thing I've ever seen

[@Madfattdeeb]

WOW! That was amazing! What a beautiful way to honor her. ❤

[@dbreardon]

The Julia dance will never be forgotten. It will stand the test of time. It is up there with the soup nazi, the puffy shirt, and the Kramer, George, whale and golf ball. ....and so many more. Another great episode not associated with Seinfeld, is WKRP's wondrous, "As God is my witness, I thought turkey's could fly" episode

[@xoxodrea123]

The best content I am going to see today. I love them.

[@stephaniegelainem]

This just popped up from 5 years ago and it is all that I have been missing from my life!

[@itsEpsilon]

Loved it, those 4 bass notes on 3:27 were spot on.

[@gillylovett7735]

Thank you for loading this!!! I was going to look for it!!

[@ladydusk1]

Those two are so amazing they make me want to cry

[@ninamo3523]

I actually did cry. Hilariousness + Dance?! Incredible!

[@user-ir8mf7km6w]

Dani really? I don't see it.

[@majesty2321]

It’s times like this that make me realize how much important Abbi and Ilana are ! What pair do you know that would do soemthing this out of the box ? Truly icons

[@MichaelBehrnsMiller]

I love you Broad City you girls brought your pitch perfect comedy style to a live... wait... dance routine... wha... damn... can't stop lolling...

[@vociferateforme]

Perfect. I have watched shows just for Julia, she made shows worth watching and this was a tribute many could love.

[@pumpkinscorner394]

Oddly touching 💜

[@stefoehmen]

wow this was epic! they made the dance look good almost lol. loved the audience getting involved too :)

[@abcxyz8787]

LOL the idea of teaching the Elaine dance to a professional dance group was hilarious. It might have been even funnier if the didn't introduce it as hideous but as unique or revolutionary.

[@lynneborrie-belcher895]

So beautiful!

[@BonjourIsHello]

how could you not show JLD's reaction to this!!

[@platypusbear-v2b]

I need a studio recorded version of this music in my playlist. Like, damn.

[@awesomeLAproductions]

These two need to host the OSCARS! These are our hosts!

[@suzediaz4361]

Well, telling by the only shot of JLD earlier in this clip, I can imagine there were no reactions worth airing. Geez, I would have shown more of the audience, they clearly were getting it.

[@darrenbahar]

Amazing gift to one of the best actresses

[@marinaisupov9959]

This is the best video I have ever seen.

[@DavidEFarner]

That was some BIG FUNNY. Wonderful! I’m happy!

[@DavidEFarner]

Just delightful. Where would we be without the arts? Say it again… Where would we be without the arts? Please help fund arts programs for our children. It is very important for a well rounded society.

[@bernlin2000]

3:26 Love that little Seinfeld-like bass riff. This was so great!!

[@bigstunna2049]

It was very subtle

[@iggynub]

Slap bass= Seinfeld. Got it

[@jdhowell916]

I was waiting for them to pan the camera back to show that Julie had left to use the restroom

[@Parisroam]

I had a terrible day 😂 and it was all worth it thanks to this video

[@itsjustme0123]

Loved the audience members doing to Elaine dance!

[@MrBiologicalChemistry]

I almost cried, this was so awesome. queens! Yaaass

[@Alex-wi4mu]

This was amazing 👌🏾

[@ATumblelinaTruth7777]

So many levels of Great 👍🏻

[@kenbee1957]

Glad to see the gals again...

[@trishadauenbaugh1489]

This was fantastic!

[@carissa3402]

Fucking brilliant, perfect tribute, I love you both!! Cant wait to see what the future holds for you two :D

[@andrearepetto217]

This was supremely stupid but it made me laugh. I think that's exactly what they were going for! Well executed! 😆

[@EchoRhythmMusic]

Amazing, like a sunrise

[@carlossandoval2577]

Let's film a show about a celebrity, then do something that was "funny" based on what that celebrity is known for.. and NOT show that celebrity react to it as its happening. Honestly, she didnt look too happy to be there in the first place. Anyway, this was great.

[@joed180]

She didn't look happy to be there? Wow. Jeez. Maybe that's just her face eh? She almost cried during her acceptance - twice.

[@hack7103]

Watch the rest of the show she was loving it

[@yelenarivera2422]

This was abso-freaking-lutely amazing!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@joeyramirez6355]

"Ughh. Was it all spastic? With the thumbs and the jerking?" - Jerry to George in that episode 🤣

[@JS-ue2si]

"Elaine dance?! Did she do the little kicks with the thumbs?"

[@Ironcorgi2]

It’s like a full body dry heave set to music

[@honeybunny5631]

These ladies are the best!

[@jacquelinecervantes3734]

They actually had people dance freely and that is insane because people don't break who they are oftenly and these women/ people did that in such an honest way

[@venaduncan9463]

That was pretty darn awesome! I loved it.

[@csjary]

Ilana and Abbi killed it!

[@ismailerdem1795]

wow, i expected a funny sketch but they hit with a modern dance masterpiece! great

[@selinabina]

I was waiting for the "here's your Christmas card" move hehe

[@HS-pm1ro]

I love them

[@FreyaGem]

It seems telling that they didn’t show Julia’s reaction, no?...

[@Gilliganfrog]

Yeah. JLD was probably just smiling... because while she would've appreciated the gesture, that shit just was not funny.

[@buckacre1348]

@@Gilliganfrog no, it was just plain brilliant, frog.

[@BeautyByJoy2]

These KWEEEEENS can do ANYTHING!

[@aussiejubes]

Surprised myself by tearing up pretty hard with glee & sentiment!

[@rhiannablumberg4803]

Wow.... did this just happen to me right now lol?!??! Hilarious perfection.

[@peachykeenlimabean605]

3:20 is absolutely priceless 😂😂😂 Ilana all impressed by the pro dancers and forgets she's a part of the show.. amazing

[@BuddhaFang]

This is the greatest tribute possible.

[@Zumcho]

Love this! But several years ago, Oprah had her guests perform this infamous dance on the show. And JLD wasnt amused then. She probably wasn't amused this time either.

[@elinoreb.9538]

i love JLD and I love those gals, what a beautiful gift
