Development and production
Creator Michael Patrick King had worked on several network series before the HBO television series Sex and the City (1998). Initially starting out as a writer, he went on to direct and produce episodes for the series as well as write, produce and direct the two movies that followed – Sex and the City and Sex and the City 2. After finalizing the last movie to the series, King entered a multi-year deal with Warner Bros. Television, through which he formed his production company, Michael Patrick King Productions.[1] In that year, a bidding war occurred for the undeveloped pilot to 2 Broke Girls. In December, the series' pilot was picked up by CBS. The series was then ordered on May 13, 2011 for the 2011-2012 primetime television season.[2] The series receives a full season pickup on October 5, 2011.[3] In March 2012, the series was renewed for a second season.[4]
The season was produced by Michael Patrick King Productions and Warner Bros. Television and executive produced by creators Michael Patrick King and comedienne Whitney Cummings.

Cinematography for the series was headed by Chris La Fountaine, with Gary Baum and Joseph W. Calloway directing photography for one episode each.

The first season employed a cast a five main actors. Actresses Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs were the first to be cast in the series as Max Black, a sarcastic below-the-poverty-line waitress, and Caroline Channing, a former socialite bankrupt following her father's arrest for a Ponzi scheme.[8][9] Jonathan Kite, Garrett Morris and Matthew Moy were later cast as Oleg, a foreign hypersexed cook; Earl, a wise but hip elderly cashier; and Han, the Korean proprietor of the diner.[10]
Season one introduced a few characters that recurred throughout the season as well as several guest stars. Jennifer Coolidge portrayed Sophie Kaczynski, a Polish cleaning businesswoman who moves into the building where Max and Caroline live, beginning in the episode "And the New Neighbor".[11] She was later upgraded to series regular in the next season.[12] Nick Zano portrayed Johnny, a street artist and Max's potential love interest.[5] Brooke Lyons played Peaches Landis, a wealthy clueless mother who hires Max as her babysitter of her twins.[13] Marsha Thomason appeared in the season as Johnny's British girlfriend and Max's romantic rival Cashandra.[14] Brian Gross and Greg Worswick appeared in two episodes of the season as a gay couple Steven and Michael.[5] Noah Mills played Robbie, Max's ex-boyfriend in two episodes.[5] Businesswoman Martha Stewart appeared in the season finale as herself.[15] Jayson Blair, who starred in the MTV series The Hard Times of RJ Berger, starred in "And the Spring Break" as Brendon, a tenant in the apartment that Max and Caroline are housesitting for.

Reception
Viewership and ratings
The pilot for 2 Broke Girls premiered in the United States on September 19, 2011 to 19.37 million viewers.[16] The series premier followed the season seven premiere of Two and a Half Men with Ashton Kutcher replacing Charlie Sheen, which premiered to 28 million viewers.[16] The series premiere was the highest rated comedy series launch since fall 2001.[17] The season ended with a 2 part episode "And Martha Stewart Have a Ball", which drew in 8.99 million viewers.[18] The season averaged 11.29 million viewers per 24 episode, ranking No. 32 among the most watched primetime television series.[19] The season also averaged 5.56 million viewers per 24 episodes within the target demographic, registering a 4.35/11 Nielsen ratings share and ranking as the eleventh highest rated program of the 2011-2012 primetime television season.[20]
Critical reviews
The first season was well received by media critics. At Metacritic, a site which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from media critics, the season received an average score of 66, indicating "generally favorable reviews", based on initial reviews of the pilot episode. Reviews of the full season became more polarized, with the criticism towards the show's usage of racial stereotypes.
Matt Hinrichs from DVD Talk wrote that the season release is "highly recommended." He deemed the first season "a snarky delight that crackles with hilarious situations and proudly non-p.c. characters." Hinrichs also praised actresses Dennings and Behrs for their portrayal of Max and Caroline, highlighting the chemistry between them and the characters themselves as the series' "winning formula."[21] The Numbers writer C.S. Strowbridge positively received the season, praising the chemistry between the two leads and the character development of several of the main characters while noting that "calling it crass would be an understatement." Strowbridge concluded, "the style of humor will turn off as many people as it entertains and that is an issue. I do think Season One got better as it went along and even though the DVD and the Blu-ray do not have a lot of extras, it is still worth picking up."[22] Todd Fuller of Sitcoms Online wrote that the series is "an old fashioned sitcom like Laverne & Shirley and Alice. It works on many levels. The writing is a bit edgy and raunchy at times, but that's the trend in many comedies these days. Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs have great chemistry and comic timing together. The supporting cast at the diner is pretty funny in small doses. Jennifer Coolidge was also a welcome later addition to the cast."[23]
Emily Nussbaum of The New Yorker wrote a mixed review of the series. Favoring it over Cumming's series on NBC, Nussbaum praised the character Max as something new for network television, highlighting her sense of humor and her contrasting nature to that of Whitney's lead character. However, she was critical of the racial strereotype present in the series and the series' setting. Nussbaum positively concluded, "there’s so much potential here it kills me—a deep female friendship, raw humor about class, and a show that puts young women’s sexuality dead center, rather than using it as visual spice, as in some cable series about bad-boy antiheroes." [24] The AV Club writer Todd VanDerWerff, in his review of the series finale, was critical of the series for not living up to the potential present in the series' pilot episode and noted that "still hasn’t figured out how to use the ensemble, though at least it doesn’t seem to have something out for all of the male supporting characters."[25] Patrick Bromley of DVD Verdict praised the lead actresses' chemistry but ultimately found it "repetitive, broad, grating and, more often than not, just stupid." Browley was also critical of the racial content and stereotypes present in the series.[26] Aaron Peck, writing for High-Def Digest, wrote the first season release as "one to avoid." Deeming the season "pure comedic blasphemy", Peck panned the comedic content and use of stereotyping and racism, deeming the characters alongside Max and Caroline "the most racially insensitive depictions" thought up.[27]
Awards and nominations
In 2012, the series won the People's Choice Award for Favorite New TV Comedy.[28] Crew members Glenda Rovello, Conny Boettger and Amy Feldman were nominated for Excellence in Production Design Award for Episode of a Multi-Camera, Variety, or Unscripted Series for the work on the episode And the Rich People Problems".[29] At the 2012 Teen Choice Awards, 2 Broke Girls was nominated for Choice TV: Comedy while series star Beth Behrs was nominated for Choice TV Breakout Performance – Female.[30] At the 65th Primetime Emmy Awards, Rovello and Feldman won the award for Outstanding Art Direction for a Multi-Camera Series while cinematographer Gary Baum was nominated for Outstanding Cinematography for a Multi-Camera Series and series editor Darryl Bates for Outstanding Multi-Camera Picture Editing for a Comedy Series.[31][32][33]
