SNL alum Bill Hader co-created and stars in Barry, an HBO comedy series about a US veteran turned hitman who wants to stop killing and start acting. The series premiered in March of 2018, and in April HBO reported that they decided to renew the series for a second season.

Both Bill Hader and Henry Winkler are nominated for acting Emmys this year for their work on Barry. This show is complex, dark, and funny. Hader is as brilliant in it as you would expect. This is the first year in a while that Veep isn’t nominated in the best comedy series category. Does that mean that new kid on the block Barry has a chance? Maybe.
