Lin Manuel Miranda, Nathan Lane, Tina Fey and Julienne Moore are just some of the A-listers appearing in season two of “Difficult People.” But the real stars of the show are the two meanest people in New York.
Dubbed as the second coming of “Seinfeld,” Billy Eichner and Julie Klausner play self-absorbed comedians who leave behind roadkill in their desperate attempts to gain fame. Best thing about them? They only have patience for each other.

Produced by Amy Poehler, the show is also pretty Jewish. How Jewish? Well, the trailer opens in a synagogue, there’s tons of hilarious Jewish guilt and a vocal hatred of all things Judaica.
Watch the trailer below and tune in to the new season July 12.
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
