"Billy On The Street; super uber late pass on my part."
Hulu uploaded the past four seasons of this show a week or two ago and I watched one episode at whim and wow, I feel so bad for sleeping on this show. I don't know how much of a character Billy Eichner is playing on the show, but dude is consistently funny off the cuff with these street interviews. I'd love to know how long it takes for him to get release forms from people after he storms off from them when they give a response he doesn't like or agrees with.
If there's a prior post for this show, my apologies. I didn't see one in my search.

i checked it out on a whim as well when i was complaining in some parks & rec post about his character on the show being the same joke every time, and someone mentioned billy on the street as a key to understanding him (at least as a comedic performer). i make a point to check out every episode with a guest i'm interested in or something in the description that pulls me in just so i'm not watching every episode, but truthfully the funniest parts of the show don't rely on any guest nor are they the concepts themselves, it's him and the writing staff. as well as some game shows, trivia, and pop cuture, i like good improv comedy, and he is much funnier than his character on P&R let on. he may be one note (i don't know, i haven't watched his hulu sitcom), but billy on the street seems like the perfect vehicle for him.
4. "his segments with celebrities are hilarious too" In response to Reply # 0
like the one where he takes Seth Rogen around, masking his face with a big camera, and tells people that Seth Rogen died and getting their reactions while Seth is there in person
or where he takes John Oliver around and asks gay people if they care about John Oliver
i mainly catch the segments on YouTube, but they are jokes every time
