Abbi's Wallpaper on HBO's "Divorce" / by Charlene Wang de Chen

I was watching the premiere of the new HBO show “Divorce” starring Sarah Jessica Parker, and when we were in her character’s bedroom, I recognized the wallpaper as a familiar friend…

…it is the same wallpaper used in Abbi’s apartment on Broad City!

I recognized it instantly because I had to reorder Abbi’s apartment wallpaper while working on Broad City so spent some quality time with the design and seller, Secondhand Rose (which by the way is totally sold out of this design now).

I know those are sort of weird images of Abbi, but the best scenes featuring this wall of wallpaper in her set are from her infamous naked dance number to “Edge of Glory” when she realizes she has the whole apartment to herself in Season 2, Episode 2 “Mochalatta Chills”:

yes only decorators watch shows and notice wallpaper which reminds them of other wallpaper.
