Please Enjoy “Oh, Hello on Broadway” Now Streaming on Netflix

Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland’s/Nick Kroll and John Mulaney’s full-length stage show, Oh, Hello on Broadway might just be the unapologetically silly, satirical love letter to Broadway that you need right now. 

Every convention of Broadway and theater gets delightfully picked apart by the duo for well over an hour in every way imaginable. Even if you don’t know all the NYC or Broadway references, there’s something undeniably magnetic about the fully realized personas of Faizon and St. Geegland and their endless self-aware tomfoolery. 

Also, Steve Martin is their guest for this night that was taped as a special. 

Sounds pretty swell, huh? Well, go watch it on Netflix as soon as you can then.

Nick Kroll and John Mulaney have taken their characters, Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland, to a proverbial mountaintop. From sketches to the hallowed streets of NYC’s Broadway, Faizon and St. Geegland have slyly goofed their way to the brightest spotlight.

Now, for all of us who can’t get tickets to anything on Broadway, we’ll get to see just how much they went overboard with the tuna in their Netflix special, “Oh, Hello Broadway”.

Here’s the trailer to whet your appetite.

Look for the special to start streaming next Tuesday, June 13th on Netflix.

Nick Kroll and John Mulaney, the stars of Oh, Hello and upcoming hosts of The Spirit Awards, went on Conan last night ”in the middle of having a spat”.

This just goes to show that wigs, old person make up, and fake arguments or not, Kroll and Mulaney are one of the great comedy duos of our time.

That’s part of why they have two cockroaches at a zoo named after them.

Here’s the best glimpse, thus far, to see what Oh, Hello on Broadway is like if you’re unable to snag some tickets.

Geroge St. Geegland/John Mulaney and Gil Faizon/Nick Kroll always have a different guest every night on their live Oh, Hello show on Broadway. Their guests have been all sorts of a-listers and celebrated New Yorkers. 

Recently, they just had one of their best guests yet with legendary actor Alan Alda, who seems to fit in with St. Geegland and Faizon’s geriatric antics.

See for yourself here.

Nick Kroll and John Mulaney as Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland took a break from their Oh, Hello run on Broadway and had to make a trip uptown to Harlem to see Conan O’Brien during his visit to NYC. 

You can see why Conan has said of Oh, Hello, “Seen the show twice and it’s so funny it angers me.

Nick Kroll & Stephen Colbert, Conan O’Brien & Ryan Reynolds, and Eric Andre & Mike O’Brien All End in the Same Spectacular Fashion

Comedians and actors Nick Kroll, Stephen Colbert, Conan O’Brien, Ryan Reynolds, Eric Andre, and Mike O’Brien are all pretty much straight as far as we know.

Yet, something was in the air yesterday, perhaps the looming end of the century old Curse of the Billy Goat, that had all three interviews end in the same spectacular fashion.  

Well, without giving too much away, Mike O’Brien’s 7 Minutes in Heaven ends how he tries to end all episodes of 7 Minutes in Heaven and Conan O’Brien reenacts the Notebook with Ryan Reynolds. 

You can take a wild guess what the common link between these interviews are or just enjoy watching male friendship be taken to the next level between the likes of Colbert and Kroll.

Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland Take Over Late Night with Seth Meyers and Do Their Own Show ‘Too Much Tuna’

Nick Kroll and John Mulaney Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland got their latest late night appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers. With not only a late night talk show at their disposal, but a theatre in our nation’s capitol as well, Gil and George opted to do one more round of their beloved prank/chat show Too Much Tuna. 

Basically, they hijacked Meyers show and had Meyers as a guest and had the sort of fun that they do at their Oh, Hello show.

Also, they explained, in the actual televised interview where they were the guests, how their show pays “hompage” to Broadway.

We’re guessing that Mulaney and Kroll could do these characters on Broadway for as long as they desire.

Jon Hamm and John Slattery Listed as Understudies for Nick Kroll and John Mulaney’s “Oh, Hello”

It looks like Kroll and Mulaney made sure to make every single square inch of their Broadway run funny. 

In the programs for Oh, Hello on Broadway, both John Slattery and Jon Hamm are actually listed in the programs as the understudies for Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland played by Nick Kroll and John Mulaney respectively. Leave it to Kroll and Mulaney to find some “suitable” understudies.

Slattery and Hamm have yet to really step in for a night of Oh, Hello. Also, it’s hard to imagine anyone inhabiting the roles of Gil and George, but imagining Slattery and Hamm doing Too Much Tuna is pretty adorable.

Of course, Kroll and Mulaney have fun with it, especially in NBC Experience Store attire.

The love triangle is a tried and true formula within romantic comedies, but making that enticing in 2016 is a bit of a challenge.

Nick Kroll and John Mulaney Will Team Up Again in Animated Series “Big Mouth” at Netflix
June 13, 2016
Uncategorized

This time they’ll be playing teenagers as opposed to old men with a lot of spunk. 

Oh, Hello has brought Nick Kroll and John Mulaney to the forefront of comedy as two senior best friends who are very, very, very opinionated, especially when it comes to tuna. 

Taking notice, Netflix has ordered an animated series from Kroll and Andrew Goldberg that will put the voices of Kroll and Mulaney in the starring roles of two teenagers going through hitting puberty along with Maya Rudolph and Jason Mantzoukas. As it’s animated, we’re sure that they’ll up the ante on how ridiculous they can get. 

Look for Big Mouth to start streaming in 2017.
