We've seen identity makeovers on TV before, but it's not often you see a character blithely shaving more than a decade off their age. On Younger, the latest offering from Sex and the City creator Darren Star,  40-year-old Liza (Sutton Foster) finds out that her husband has been cheating on her and has pissed away all their money gambling. So she leaves their house in Jersey, shacks up with a friend in Williamsburg, and re-enters the workforce by telling everyone that she's actually 26. As you do.

In honor of the season premiere of Inside Amy Schumer on April 21st—and also, as an opportunity to humblebrag that we knew her when—we're unearthing some of our favorite Schumer material from the archives.

For those of you hunting for a roommate ahead of the busy spring/summer rental season, another avenue for finding the (hopefully) perfect match: SpeedRoommating is back in New York with an event happening tonight.
