Get ready for a lot more Billy Eichner. The Billy on the Street host’s new comedy series, Difficult People, has been given a straight-to-series order by Hulu, reports The Hollywood Reporter. The show, which will co-star Billy on the Street head writer Julie Klausner, focuses on two best friends living in New York whose “irreverent” behavior gets them stuck in sticky situations. Originally passed on by USA Network, the series, executive produced by Amy Poehler, goes into production early next year.
