Life is really tough for Julie and Billy, two 30-something aspiring comics living and working in New York City. While their friends and acquaintances move on to find success and love, they continue to struggle with careers and relationships, getting more bitter by the day. By day, Julie's a TV blogger, and Billy works as a waiter. By night, they perform at a local comedy club. It's a good thing they have each other, though, because their behavior tends to land them in incredibly awkward situations, and they're completely clueless as to why people dislike them or find them offensive. They don't hesitate, for example, to poll the other attendees at a funeral -- while the service is in progress -- to find a good place in the area for lunch. The 30-minute Hulu-original series is executive-produced by Amy Poehler ("Parks and Recreation") and Dave Becky ("Louie").

Daniel D'Addario TIME Magazine 05/10/2019
The jokes, often at the expense of celebrities, are told with startling confidence. Who knows how the market can support a show so narrowly targeted to a literate, mean audience -- but who cares when it's this funny? Go to Full Review Rachel Syme The New Republic 08/10/2017
If the show's earlier seasons sometimes wallowed in sarcasm, then the third season is its most mature iteration of the show yet, and where it has finally found its groove. Go to Full Review David Wiegand San Francisco Chronicle 08/08/2017

Why on Earth would anyone want to spend a half hour with these people? Simple: because they are hilarious. Go to Full Review Joey Moser Awards Daily 10/30/2019
In a time where you need to laugh more than anything, Hulu's Difficult People reminds us that we can roll our eyes with aplomb and not feel bad about it. Go to Full Review Chris Feil The Film Experience 05/10/2019
That [premiere] was a great capsule of the show's humor: a blend of mass entertainment and niche references with a huge serving of outrage. Go to Full Review Brett White Decider 05/10/2019
Difficult People has proven to be perfectly suited to lampooning our national nightmare because Julie and Billy get to act as angry as viewers feel inside. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

09/27/2017 The best season yet for Difficult People. In the year since last season, there's obviously been a lot of changes made to the New York mentality, and Difficult People does a remarkable job of satirizing this without being (too) belittling. Julie Klausner and Billy Eichner feel more in-tune than ever with their character chemistry, and they make for the most lovably foul TV protagonists since Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Rounded out with a cast of types from all creeds, races and sexualities, the show also really understands New York's diverse appeal (unlike, say, a Lena Dunham creation), and while the show's characters tend to be dick-heads, the tone couldn't be any less mean-spirited. Perhaps a little too direct with some of its one-liners ("Consent? There's that word again dude!") but for the most part the zingers are all sharp and hilarious, and let's hope they keep up this energy for next year! See more 08/22/2017 I want to hate this show, but the main characters get it. I hate that they're relatable in that way. Ugh. See more 08/10/2017 These people are the WORST. In the unfunniest way possible. See more Read all reviews
