Closest matches first, then broader nearby picks.
Why this fits: Fisk keeps the fast, deadline-driven comedy energy of Make That Movie, with jokes built from humiliation and rapid reversals. Watch a status-proud professional get shoved into a humiliating workplace downgrade, where every scene turns into a new embarrassment sprint, just with sharper dialogue and more workplace bite.
Why this fits: New Zealand Spy delivers the same kind of escalating absurdity as Make That Movie, where plans collapse under bureaucratic nonsense and time pressure. The 1970s recruitment setup turns spy-genre swagger into mundane government dysfunction, so you get sustained comic situations that keep ratcheting up the chaos, just in a spoofier, more story-based frame.
Why this fits: The Paper shares Make That Movie’s process-forward comedy, where the fun comes from watching a team scramble and improvise under messy constraints. Its mockumentary newsroom setup gives you constant workplace friction and bromance dynamics, with a dying-institution backdrop that keeps the laughs grounded and a bit bittersweet, not just frantic.
Breaking Bear brings deadpan crime comedy and serialized criminal misadventures to the found-family chaos of adult animal capers. If you like Make That Movie’s deadline-driven awkward creative process, this goes darker and more desperate, with office-adjacent humiliation replaced by a money plot that keeps escalating.
It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia leans into ego-driven chaos and episodic bad decisions from a friend group that never learns. If Make That Movie’s three-day chaos and British absurdist humor hit for you, this is more workplace rivalry and prank comedy, with sharper self-inflicted disasters and less creative-process focus.
The Chair Company turns surreal workplace comedy into dark bureaucratic dread and paranoia mystery. After Make That Movie’s awkward creative process and race-against-time comedy, this feels more thriller-leaning and conspiracy-gone-weird, trading broad deadline chaos for office humiliation and escalating uncertainty.
