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.
Make That Movie’s deadline-driven comedy and awkward creative process thrive on ordinary people trying to make something work under pressure. Alpha Males leans harder into socially awkward comedy and men behaving badly, with generational mismatch and friend group chaos that turns more personal and cringier.
Make That Movie’s race-against-time chaos and British absurdist humor come from people improvising their way through a looming deadline. Futurama swaps the production scramble for interplanetary misadventures, keeping bureaucracy slapstick and silly worldbuilding dangers, but adding more sci-fi workplace rivalry and occasional heartfelt moments.
Make That Movie’s three-day chaos and awkward creative process reward you for watching plans collapse in real time. Grand Blue Dreaming trades the film shoot for anarchic college comedy, where peer pressure chaos and loud physical gags spiral into beach day mayhem and underwater misadventures with more humiliation.
