I don't watch a huge amount of documentaries, but when I do I am rarely disappointed. But what makes this one special is that this features people who didn't just do a bunch of research and got it published in journals and made books. These are working comedians, of various success, and it was all about their collective experiences. Many of which conflicted, such as not every comedian having mental health issues or a terrible life. And with that, I feel if you really were interested in comedy, be it out of curiosity or perhaps as a career, you got the type of information you'd need to make a decision for yourself.
