Season 2 will see Billy (Billy Eichner) try to find a boyfriend while Julie (Julie Klausner) does everything in her power to avoid deepening her relationship with Arthur (James Urbaniak).
The episodes are so briskly paced and the tone so expertly judged that you tend to enjoy it all in the spirit in which it was intended. The show is a jar of bittersweet jelly beans. You can't eat just one.
It's so nice to be back with Billy and Julie again. Hulu's Difficult People... is a show that wears its unique but tricky concept on its sleeve... And it's so much fun to watch.
You have been warned. This is maddeningly raw, often broad comedy. Me, I liked its sheer, unadulterated rudeness. Watch this and you will feel better about yourself and the world. That is the point; that is the therapy it provides.
I've just binge-watched three second-season episodes of Hulu's Difficult People and don't have a kind word to say about anyone. Well, except for Billy Epstein and Julie Kessler, who hold the title of the world's most hilarious egomaniacs.
There's something sweet about Billy and Julie's firm belief in each other, even as their codependent friendship helps destroy their ability to find success or connect with others.
I'd love for Difficult People to one day demand that Julie and Billy realize how burrowing into themselves has limited who they are and could be. Until then, I'm happy with jokes about movie stars' missing genitalia.
It's all clever and funny, if you enjoy laughing at people who are thoroughly mean and selfish, which I do. They represent some of the darker sides of human nature, those petty, unpleasant feelings we're generally taught to hide.
Fast-paced and motormouthed as it is, Difficult People still finds ways to make a pair of despicable, difficult friends entirely relatable and pal-worthy, even when a few of its shots fall short of the bullseye.
The new episodes are jam-packed with pop-culture jokes that will leave you trying to suppress outbursts of laughter lest you miss one punchline set atop another, like layers of a delicious cake.
