  "account": "Hulu has emerged victorious in a bidding war for Mary Beth Barone's new romantic comedy series, titled \"Hard Feelings,\" according to A24's announcement. Mary Beth Barone, who also stars in the series, expressed her excitement on Instagram, declaring, \"MY LIFE IS A TV SHOW.\" The series follows Claire Ambrose, a New York City dating consultant who trains men in communication and emotional intelligence while often being drawn to men lacking these traits. This marks Barone's first major television role as both a creator and star. It also brings her back to work with comedian and actor Benito Skinner, with whom she previously collaborated on Amazon/A24's \"Overcompensating.\" Scott King will serve as the showrunner, with Barone handling writing and executive production duties. Skinner will co-executive produce alongside Mackenzie Roussos of E360 and A24. Barone is currently starring in and writing the comedy series \"Overcompensating,\" which recently concluded its second season. The comedy, created by Skinner, centers around a college freshman who grapples with fraternity life, his sexuality, and an unexpected friendship. Barone's latest stand-up special, \"Galaxy Brain,\" premiered on Netflix in July, making the platform's Top 10 during its first week. The special was also released as a comedy album through Universal Music’s MCA on August 19. Barone has previously self-produced her first stand-up special, \"Thought Provoking,\" which was released in April 2024. Known for her headline performances at various comedy festivals and podcast appearances with Skinner, Barone is set to launch \"Hard Feelings\" on Hulu.",
