After months of trying and failing to get pregnant, Lucy (Glazer) and Adrian (Theroux) finally find their dream fertility doctor in the illustrious Dr. Hindle (Brosnan). But after becoming pregnant, Lucy begins to notice something sinister through Hindle’s gleaming charm, and she sets out to uncover the unsettling truth about him, and her own “birth story.” As if getting pregnant weren’t complicated enough…

After Broad City ended with its fifth season, Glazer started working on many new projects, including the Generator Collective, which she co-founded in 2016. The actress has hosted multiple Generator events to lower the barrier of entry to voting and civic engagement.
She recently released her debut standup special The Planet Is Burning on Amazon Prime Video. Glazer and Abbi Jacobson (Broad City) have an animated comedy titled, Mall Town USA, currently in development at Comedy Central. Other notable credits include Rough Night, The Night Before, and Green Eggs and Ham.
