"Billy on the Street" is on the street again

Billy Eichner has seen every side of television any one actor can. Thanks to Billy on the Street, He's one of the few people in New York able to scream at a business woman in the middle of a busy sidewalk and get out unscathed. He came from the bowels of the internet, moved to probably very low ratings on Fuse TV and then landed at truTV with slightly better views. He even garnered his first Emmy nomination this year. Sadly, his show is once again moving but this time to an unknown home. 

PageSix reported the news late last night after a source from truTV informed them of the move. Eichner confirmed the move in a tweet (see below). Separate sources say the show won't leave completely; it'll just change form. One of the sources says Eichner's growing list of acting gigs is to blame for the move, citing his inability to allot time to making full episodes of his own show. Whatever the incarnation, Billy on the Street is sure to garner some attention.

For those asking, yes BILLY ON THE STREET will be back! But we're shifting gears a bit...exciting things ahead...more will be revealed soon! pic.twitter.com/hrw5KCFPe9

All the seasons of ‘Billy on the Street’ to scream their way to Hulu

From internet to deep cable to basic cable, Billy Eichner’s Billy on the Street is making the rounds all over the place. The next place it’s set to premiere is right back on the internet thanks to streaming platform Hulu. The internet network (which has to be a thing now) struck a deal with truTV to air the first four seasons and 42 episodes of the hit show. Season five will follow after it airs. The Hollywood Reporter says that this is the first time a truTV series has hit the net. It’s actually coming in as an extension of a Turner based arrangement from last year.

For those who haven’t seen the show, Billy on the Street puts Billy on the streets of New York to play games with unsuspecting bystanders. He is also joined by celebrities who look like they stopped by after just waking up. So, when the show hits the web waves, you’ll be able to see all of your favorite famous people like Rashida Jones, Nas, and Maya Rudolph. The show originally started as a Funny or Die sketch series. Then it moved to Fuse for its first three seasons and finally found a forever home on truTV. That’s not the only Billy Eichner-led series you can find on Hulu. His show Difficult People with Julie Klausner is on its way back for season two on July 12th.
