I can tell when somebody recognizes me, and I try to avoid those people.

We're really fleshing out the whole world of the show [Difficult People]. It's more of an ensemble now, whereas last season we were very focused on establishing the Billy/Julie friendship. Now that that's been established, we don't question that they love each other and what the show's about. So we can meander outside of that.

I like talking to a person who is crazy in a fun, eccentric way. I don't want to talk to a legitimate crazy person, because that's not nice.

I think New Yorkers - they're media savvy. People have a sense of humor.

I had a lot of fans in New York. The press would write about me, but I couldn't get a paying job.
