YouTubeTomorrow is a big day. Huge! And no, we're not talking about that constantly disappointing "holiday." It's the season four finale of Billy on the Street.
Billy on the who, you ask? It's everyone's favorite quiz-show-on-steroids. 2015 was a banner year for the series and its host, Billy Eichner, marked first and foremost by the move from Fuse Network to TruTV (otherwise known as "movin' on up"). He also managed to land some major star power, like Tina Fey, Will Ferrell and even the magnificent Julianne Moore. Now that's playing in the big leagues.
To commemorate the fourth season and pay respects to a fabulous year of laughs, we've picked out the nine best moment's from Billy's enviable 2015. There are jokes, there are digs, and best of all, there are plenty of reasons for Scientology to come after him.
"Kris Jenner or Geppetto?"
Kris Jenner is the matriarch of the Kardashian family; Geppetto created a puppet boy. Can you tell the difference? This wildly offensive (to Kris Jenner, at least) little game is also wicked fun. We'll give you a hint: Geppetto is the one who has a child with a rapidly changing nose.
"Leah Remini's Escape From Scientology"
Look away, David Miscavige! This is an obstacle course to end all obstacle courses. Watch Rachel Dratch sign the billion-year contract, run through an alien corridor to retrieve a Xanax, save her children from the Sea Org, and release shirtless men from John Travolta's shed. Will she escape from Scientology? Only Xenu knows.
"Shondaland"
Another Billy on the Street episode, another obstacle course. This one sees Amy Sedaris navigating her way through Shondaland: Shattering the glass ceiling, hooking up with a hot nurse at a patient's bedside, retrieving Kerry Washington's wig, and running through a "gauntlet of 10 white people patting themselves on the back for embracing a black lead." It's harrowing, harrowing stuff.
"LaTina Fey"
Can Tina Fey name 20 Latino performers in one minute? No, no she cannot. But she's darn hilarious trying.
"Gospel Choir Lightning Round"
Why does Billy Eichner have a gospel choir following him around as he asks random New Yorkers trivia questions? Who cares. There's a gospel choir following Billy Eichner around.
"Quizzed in the Face: Elena Returns"
Billy on the Street loyalists will recognize Elena as one of the most memorable guests of the show. She's spicy, she's grumpy, and she's an all-around amazing addition to the segment. Especially because she knows literally nothing about pop culture.
"New Year's Eve or Deformed?"
Did you know that Mark Wahlberg has an extra nipple, Megan Fox a club thumb, and Damon Wayans a club foot? Neither did Andy Cohen.
"Chris Pratt Lightning Round"
There's probably nothing funnier than watching regular people fail to recognize mega-celebrities when they're standing right in front of them. What makes it even better is that Chris Pratt is an angel who handles the extreme confusion with a mixture of grace and self-deprecation that only Chris Pratt could muster—even when he's confused for (gasp!) Chris Evans.
"Emmy Edition with Seth Meyers"
Billy on the Street: Emmy Edition with Seth MeyersThe Emmys are Sunday! Here's a flashback to Billy on the Emmys last year with Seth Meyers!
Posted by Billy Eichner on Friday, September 18, 2015
This was a special edition of BoTS for this year's Emmys, hosted by none other than Seth Meyers, starring none other than Seth Meyers. We'll give you a little spoiler: He grins the ENTIRE time.
