Everybody’s in L.A. featured a freewheeling format including celebrity guests like Jerry Seinfeld and David Letterman discussing Los Angeles-centered topics like earthquakes and helicopters with local experts. The show — with Richard Kind serving as Mulaney’s sidekick — also incorporated pre-taped comedy sketches, live call-ins from viewers and musical performances from acts like Weezer and Beck.
Mulaney has a longstanding relationship with Netflix, with several of his stand-up comedy specials airing on the streamer, including 2015’s The Comeback Kid, 2018’s Kid Gorgeous and 2023’s Baby J. Mulaney also hosted John Mulaney & The Sack Lunch Bunch, a kids’-themed variety special for Netflix in 2019.
