Who payed the critics

Dreadfully Boring

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

As a fan of both Billy Eichner and Amy Poehler I was hoping for something good out of them and they definitely didn't disappoint.The show reminds me of my favorite comedy right now "Veep" in that it moves very quickly and if you're not paying attention the comedy can sometimes fly right by you.Julie Klausner and Billy Eichner play comedians that are trying to get their big break in show business but keep coming up short. The situations they get themselves in are very funny and complex. The supporting cast is very good as well. James Urbaniak plays Julie's boyfriend that works at PBS. But my favorite is Andrea Martin that plays Julie's mother. I loved Andrea back in the SCTV days and it's great to see her back on TV.Now I absolutely hate pop culture and that whole celebrity obsessed scene but I love how Julie and Billy make fun of it using little quips and references. The list of people that make cameo appearances is pretty impressive too.If you're not fast enough to pick up on the jokes or you like more traditional comedies, then you might not like Difficult People which might explain some of the low review scores. But if you have a sophisticated sense of humor and an open mind then you're probably going to love it.

Difficult people is about two really awful people who go around being awful and catty and mean. This can work, as it does in You're the Worst. But Difficult People is far less ambition. It basically feels like a couple of comedians who thought it would be funny to make a show where they just do insult comedy every week. The first episode was *mildly* amusing. I laughed once or twice, even though I found the characters unlikable and the premise thin. The second episode had all the flaws of the first but was even less funny. So that's the last episode I'll be watching.

The writing. The timing. The really raw sometimes deliciously offensive humor. This show, especially Season 2 is like nothing else. All the really good stuff is in the details, the small comments, the insider humor, like a great comedy for people who have been there-done that can appreciate. Wicked smart, original, and addicting. Yes, some episodes are better than others, but I defy you to match " Italian Pinata" to anything ever written in its comedic format/genre . Insanely BRILLIANT, this show. Not for the faint of heart, or the banal mind. The characters are all out there, the backdrop of the City is just perfect. Even the two Basset Hounds, with those bored little looks on their faces, add to the whole tone of this show. Billy Eichner is at his absolute BEST here and Julie, is obvi, the next big THING in comedy writing. Like a smarter Tina Fey with a dirtier mind. LOVE LOVE LOVE .

so the the pilot started in a "keep away" "don't laugh" sign on it ... the jokes didn't really work properly .. not really funny and the scenario grows without even knowing what's going on not until the end of the episode when you know that the whole idea is about a struggling "supposedly" comedians who try so hard to make it but they are being so Difficult , but the comedy is missing like it is just about "difficult people" living life !!Honestly and i'm really not trying to be hurtful or something but i don't know Julie Klausner like did she really write something noticeable or was she in a memorable TV show !! i mean yeah i'v seen Billy Eichner in Parks and recreations last season and no he wasn't funny but again in here something doesn't feel right ... like you know already that the show is not even watchable .. Overall,, for me this is the end and i strongly don't think the show will survive ... and the fact that the only good show by Hulu is still "Deadbeat" still stand and it was a good move picking up "The Mindy Project" because they'll need it to patch up the holes made by shows like this one :P I had the second episode two on TV but i didn't even bother to go on with this nonsense.
