Billy on the Street Season 1 Episode 8 Drunk Rich

Billy on the Street is an American comedy show that first aired on Fuse TV in 2011. It features comedian Billy Eichner as he runs around the streets of New York City, asking random people on the street absurd questions. The show is known for its high energy and hilarious moments, as well as its celebrity guests who join Billy on his quests.

In the eighth episode of the first season, titled "Drunk Rich," Billy takes to the streets to ask people if they would rather be drunk or rich. As always, the comedian's wild antics and fearless attitude make for plenty of laughs and unexpected moments.

The episode begins with Billy standing in the middle of a busy street, shouting at passersby about the ultimate dilemma of being either drunk or rich. He approaches a group of women and asks them if they would rather be drunk or rich. When they answer that they would rather be rich, he tells them they are making a mistake. "Have you ever had a really good time sober?" he asks, before running away down the block.

Next, Billy approaches another group of people and asks them the same question. One man chooses to be rich, while a woman says she would rather be drunk. Billy decides to orchestrate a game show moment, pitting the two against each other in a "Drunk vs. Rich" quiz. The questions are predictably absurd, and the outcome is even more hilarious.

Throughout the episode, Billy also tackles other random questions, such as asking people if they would rather be caught cheating or be in a car accident. He also stops a man on the street who happens to be wearing a bird hat, and asks him if he would rather be a bird or a fish. The man chooses bird, leading Billy to declare that he is a "bird person" and that they are now friends.

Another highlight of the episode is when Billy brings in guest star Amy Poehler to help him ask people about the worth of certain celebrities. They approach a woman on the street and ask her if she thinks Billy Joel is worth more or less than a toaster oven. The woman is visibly confused, but plays along, ultimately choosing the toaster oven as the more valuable item.

The episode comes to a close with Billy running through the street, shouting about whether or not it's okay to have a beer for breakfast. He then engages with two men who are trying to hail a cab, serenading them with an original song about being drunk and rich.

Overall, "Drunk Rich" is a classic episode of Billy on the Street, showcasing the comedian's irreverent approach to public chaos and his willingness to do anything for a laugh. With guest star appearances from Amy Poehler and games like "drunk vs. rich," this episode is sure to have viewers in stitches.
