• One of the film's writers, David Guion, was on set one day and noticed that Steve Carell was left handed. "I didn't know you were left handed" he remarked to the actor. "I'm not", replied Carell, "but my character is".
• The lead roles were originally intended for Steve Martin and Bill Murray.
• The exterior shot of the house where the dinner is held is the same as "stately Wayne Manor" from the original Batman television series.

Unfortunately Very Underrated!
A comedy about and "idiot" changing your life. Carell was born to play this part
It's silly, it's stupid and it's fun
