You might say there are three ways to tell if you've really made it on Broadway. You get your portrait up on the wall at Sardi's, you get spoofed by Forbidden Broadway or you're the subject of a cartoon in The New Yorker.
One down and two to go for Nick Kroll and John Mulaney, better known as their OH, HELLO alter egos, Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland.
While the boys don't seem particularly impressed with the work of long-time New Yorker cartoonist Matthew Diffee, in their business, such critical darts are only fodder for new material,
WE'RE STEAMED THAT @NewYorker WOULD MOCK US IN SUCH A FASHION. Consider this shets fired, Matty boy! @MatthewDiffee pic.twitter.com/uFdT2gAQRA

OH, HELLO on BROADWAY is the Broadway premiere of two of the two hottest voices in comedy today, Nick Kroll (Comedy Central's "Kroll Show") and John Mulaney (Netflix's "The Comeback Kid").
Respectively, the duo star as Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland - outrageously opinionated, 70-something, native New Yorkers that Kroll and Mulaney first began performing on the alternative comedy stages in NYC. Honed for over a decade, the fictional duo garnered a cult following and found their way onto a Comedy Central special, viral videos and late night couches everywhere.Oh, Hello on BROADWAY is Gil and George's "memoir for the stage" - a laugh-a-minute two-man tour-de-force that's part scripted, part spontaneous comedy, and totally unprecedented.
St. Geegland and Faizon have spent their entire lives second-acting Broadway shows and could not be more thrilled to make their Broadway bows. When reached for comment, George said, "This is the furthest dun'town we have been in years and we are not happy about it." Gil added, "I'm terrified. I have to go to the bathroom."
