Mike Birbiglia: Thank God for Jokes

Mike Birbiglia declares that a joke should never end with "I’m joking." In his all-new comedy, Birbiglia tiptoes hilariously through the minefield that is modern-day joke-telling. Join Mike as he learns that the same jokes that elicit laughter have the power to produce tears, rage, and a whole lot of getting yelled at. Ultimately it's a show that asks, “How far should we go for the laugh?”

Directed by Seth Barrish, Mike Birbiglia, Mike Birbiglia: Thank God for Jokes leans on a strong ensemble — Mike Birbiglia, Jimmy Kimmel — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2017.
