Over 3 seasons of Billy on the Street with Billy Eichner, the show has gotten pretty inventive with its games, which often tie in celebrities that are appearing in the episode or even playing a game named after them.

While that’s all well and good, Billy Eichner is still doing what he does best with strangers in Billy on the Street’s 4th season: aggressively inquiring about pop culture.

Watch a good round up of Billy’s latest work here, then watch the season 4 premiere on Thurs. Oct. 8th at 10:30PM on truTV.

No one in NYC is safe from Billy Eichner running up to them and forcing them into one of the many incredibly subjective pop culture games on Billy on the Street. 

Even when Anderson Cooper is “doing” a “report” on CNN on said phenomenon, he should check over his shoulder more often.

Look for the new season of Billy on the Street on truTV on Thurs. Oct. 8th at 10:30PM.

As it’s season 4, you have to wonder if people will start answering Billy’s questions, subjective as they are, right more often.

Bill Hader, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jason Sudeikis, Will Ferrell, Anna Kendrick, Julianne Moore, and Chris Pratt will all be guest stars, and likely pulled along whatever street Eichner happens to be patrolling, on this latest season of Billy on the Street premiering on Oct. 8th at 10:30PM on truTV.

We hope Will Ferrell and Billy get into some sort of shouting match over whatever game or obstacle course they’re doing.

Whether you’re walking in NYC or just taken long held beliefs that are really ridiculous when you stop and think about it for granted, you should be ready for Billy Eichner returning to the best game show that TV has going right now and Adam Conover making you think about question the things you thought you were never question because… why would you not buy an engagement ring to propose, right?

David Letterman Enjoys Some Yelling With Billy Eichner a New “Billy On The Street”

After Letterman retires, maybe he’ll make a past time out of wandering the streets with Billy Eichner screaming pop culture questions and answers at strangers?

After getting a test run of sorts during Billy Eichner’s last appearance on Letterman, David Letterman went with Billy to do an episode of Billy On The Street and it was, as you’d expect, pretty great.

If Letterman does this again, maybe there could be a “Jaywalking” vs. Billy On The Street?

Not only are we going to get to see America’s favorite “pop culture inquisitor” Billy Eichner return to the streets for a fourth season to question any and all, famous or not about his personal pop culture obsessions, but we’ll get two different networks to watch it on.

Billy On The Street’s Billy Eichner is set to write his first book, which, as you might expect, will deal with Hollywood and pop culture. Grand Central Publishing will release the currently untitled book.

Last night, Joel McHale participated in a bit called the Mo’Lympics, a metaphorical obstacle course through the career of film and TV star Mo’Nique on an episode of Billy On The Street.

For whatever reason, McHale vs. the Mo’Nique obstacle course turned into McHale vs. Billy Eichner in a thoroughly entertaining verbal match the likes of which should be in a roast of either one of them.
