The charm of Difficult People is that it refuses to deal in charm. Though witty and observant, albeit in a relentlessly negative way, Julie and Billy are clueless.
August 05, 2015
Not too many [post-Seinfeld sitcoms] are willing to really, truly commit and create unpleasant characters that you ultimately like because they're funny and make an art out of going too far.
August 05, 2015
What the show captures perfectly are the kind of people who are so immersed in inside-information about entertainment that their own ideas for projects are impossibly obscure -- they'll never appeal to a broad audience.
August 05, 2015
Even though Billy and Julie's cynicism borders on aggressive and off-putting, it's these rare glimpses of their humanity that make Difficult People a refreshing 22-minute watch.
August 06, 2015
Klausner makes for an effective foil, grounding the series with a furtive belief in her character's comedy that's both totally oblivious and oddly innocent, as well as giving unthinking support for Billy.
August 03, 2015
Billy and Julie are not supposed to be likable. They're both kind of awful, a la the Seinfeld gang, but often screamingly funny in their inappropriate commentary.
August 05, 2015
Produced by Amy Poehler, it has the edge of her other production, Broad City and lots of brash, unexpected laughs. Really worth seeking out.
August 05, 2015
Yes, they are self-absorbed, hypercritical people who you would and should hate. But the reason the show works is that, very subtly, it's mocking them.
August 04, 2015
Difficult People... raises an important philosophical question: Can you enjoy a sitcom if you loathe its lead characters? I think not.
