What’s This TV Show About?
Streaming on the Hulu paid subscription platform, Difficult People stars Julie Klausner, Billy Eichner, James Urbaniak, Andrea Martin, and Cole Escola. Recurring players include Derrick Baskin, Gabourey Sidibe, Shakina Nayfack, Tracee Chimo, Fred Armisen, Jackie Hoffman, and John Cho. Created by Klausner, the series centers on aspiring comics Julie Kessler (Klausner) and Billy Epsetein (Eichner). These best friends, who are trying make it on the New York City comedy scene, hate everyone and everything — except each other.
On November 15, 2017, Difficult People was cancelled. There will be no fourth season.
Could it come back again?
Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Because Nielsen doesn’t track streaming platform ratings, it is a bit trickier to determine whether Hulu will cancel or renew Difficult People for season four. One factor in the show’s favor is that it hails from NBCUniversal’s Universal Cable Productions studio. NBCUniversal also happens to have a 30% ownership stake in Hulu. For that reason, right now, I’m inclined to look elsewhere for sustenance. I’ll update this page with any developments, so subscribe for free alerts on Difficult People cancellation and renewal news.
