This movie has so much heart! I've loved Eugene Mirman's work since my middle school years, but I loved getting to see more of the behind the scenes work and the others that went into making an enjoyable comedy show. Highly recommend. I laughed, I cried, and not once did I regret spending an hour and a half watching it! ( crucial when talking about comedy)
