Last Week Tonight, BoJack Horseman, and, with a renewed jolt from the election and Trump Administration, SNL winning WGA Awards seem to be expected.

However, Atlanta nabbing both honors for both Comedy Series and New Series is a really nice, big win for Donald Glover’s freshman series as well as FX, the rare basic cable network that can run with premium cable networks and streaming services when it comes to prestige programming.

FYI, their show The Americans won an award for Drama too.

Hulu Developing ‘Unhinged’ from Casey Wilson & June Diane Raphael

One way or another, we will get another TV show with Casey Wilson and June Diane Raphael involved.

You’ve seen Wilson and Raphael go at each other in Hot Wives and now they have teamed up along with accomplished veteran comedy writer/producer John Riggi (30 Rock, The Larry Sanders Show) to make a show following a suburban middle-aged woman, potentially played by Casey, who has had enough with society’s roles for women and opts to lash out.

Called Unhinged, it would pair up nicely with Difficult People over at Hulu.

Fortunately, they’ve cut all of this together and made a special half hour so-called “Bonus Poop” available on Hulu.

It has been a long and winding road for Community going from NBC to Yahoo to, now, Hulu, especially having started off as a network sitcom and living through the rise of streaming services. Anyone still hoping for that #sixseasonsandamovie?

With that in mind, note how Hulu, Netflix, Amazon, and others seem to be stockpiling TV series in their entirety when the majority of TV audiences become cut the cord to cable.

Yes, that includes all episodes of all past four seasons.

Billy Eichner’s manic style of hosting his show Billy on the Street is undeniably infectious and lends very well to binge watching. Before his TV show, Eichner went viral with his videos, so it’s only natural that the archive of Billy on the Street, the TV series, would find its way online.

Starting Sunday, July 10th, all past four seasons of Billy on the Street will be available to stream exclusively on Hulu. Season five will also stream as soon as the season finishes airing on TruTV.

Prepare to see as much of Billy screaming and running as you can handle.

Difficult People’s Season 2 Trailer Shows How Difficult Julie Klausner and Billy Eichner Can Really Be

For Spiderman, the maxim goes, “With great power, comes great responsibility.”

For Difficult People starring Julie Klausner and Billy Eichner, the saying probably goes, “Difficult, huh? With just a little bit of power, I’ll show you what being difficult really is and you’ll regret ever saying that I was ever difficult.”

See for yourself as Julie and Billy get a little bit of a break and how they abuse it in the season 2 trailer for Difficult People.

Look for the new season to start streaming on July 12th on Hulu.

In a way, Julie Klausner and Billy Eichner get to live out the sort of loud, frustrating type of people that seems like fun as long we’re not doing any of the outbursts or being personally subjected to them.

Just look what they do to a brand new intern in this clip from season 2.

After that, look for episodes of season 2 of Difficult People to start streaming on Hulu on Tuesday, July 12th.

According to this trailer, the term “casual” is thankfully still confusing to Valerie, Alex, and Laura.

Hulu Orders Another Triumph the Insult Comic Dog Election Special

election special, hulu, robert smigel, triumph the insult comic dog

We’re pretty confident this will outdo most other election coverage just like the first one did.

There’s not a lot to be happy about in this election. Even the onslaught of seemingly mandated comedy based off of the sad joke that the current presidential race is getting a little trying.

That being said, Robert Smigel with Triumph the Insult Comic Dog in hand was one of a few bright spots with the Hulu election special. Announced today, Smigel/Triumph will be doing another election special for the streaming service, which, from the looks of it, will probably be following Hillary Clinton vs. Donald Trump.

We’re sure that if they visit the GOP convention, whatever happens will be priceless.

If you don’t have Hulu or a Hulu password, this might a pretty good reason to get one.

Along this 2016 election’s campaign trail, the presence of a certain Yugoslavian Mountain Hound, his precarious cigar, and razor sharp tongue come in at a kind of a perfect time.

Robert Smigel’s Triumph the Insult Comic Dog went and made an election special that’s not streaming on Hulu and might be as productive as watching some of the debates.

If you have Hulu, you can stream the election special right now, right here.
