  • Dear Jonah is an exciting and hilarious special that presses comedy boundaries not often crossed. Generally, a comedian has their set practiced hundreds of times before a special taping, but in Dear Jonah, a rare, unplanned moment unfolds when T.J. befriends a heckling audience member, Jonah, who derails the planned set in a hilarious and charming way. T.J.’s interaction throughout the show with Jonah showcases T.J.’s improvisation skills and quick-on-his-feet comedy talent in 45 minutes of non-stop, unpredictable laughter.

    T.J. MILLER is one of the most sought after comedians in the comedy world, but not in the drama world, or the finance world. He was named one of Variety’s “Top 10 Comics to Watch,” and Entertainment Weekly's “Next Big Things in Comedy.” Miller’s voice stars in Disney’s Academy Award-winning animated feature, Big Hero 6.
    You may recognize his non-animated face and body from his roles in Fox’s big screen comic book adaptation of Deadpool, the highest grossing R-rated film of all time, 2014’s surprise indie hit Transformers 4, and Mike Judge’s HBO comedy series Silicon Valley, now in its third season, for which he received the Critics’ Choice Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Television Comedy. His podcast "Cashing in with T.J. Miller" on nerdist.com is listened to by 12 and ½ people, and he is a nationally touring stand-up artist, crisscrossing the country listening to Kris Kross (he's also done shows in the U.K. and Puerto Rico (Puerto Rico did not go well)). He has been performing his absurdist observational stand-up act for over 10 years, and has never gone to the bathroom in his pants on stage.
    His hour-long Comedy Central stand-up special T.J. Miller: No Real Reason and hip-hop/pop/folk music album "The Extended Play E.P.," an E.P. with 41 tracks, and the "Illegal Art Remixtape" are all available now. He hosted Comedy Central’s Mash-Up, a mashup of stand-up, sketches and visualizations, and has appeared on Chelsea Lately more than most women his height. He got his start touring with Second City in Chicago and improvising with Annoyance Theater, iO, and managers at electronics stores asking why he was late and smelled like gin. Miller has been in a number of major studio films including Office Christmas Party, Cloverfield, She's Out of My League, Seeking a Friend for the End of the World, Our Idiot Brother, Yogi Bear 3D (Ranger Jones, his greatest role to date), Unstoppable, and Get Him to the Greek. Miller also talks like an old drag queen after a hard night of chain smoking, and thus voiced the character Tuffnut in the Oscar-nominated animated film How to Train Your Dragon, and How to Train Your Dragon 2. He voices Robbie from Gravity Falls on Disney, Tuffnut in the Netflix How to Train Your Dragon TV series, and Gorburger, a very strange show you just have to Google to understand. Upcoming films include Goon: Last of the Enforcers and Ready Player One directed by Steven Spielberg. He resides in Hollywood, California, where he struggles to find meaning in an uncertain world. He is a comedian.

    Hey, TJ! Just watched this. I was Jonah’s high school counselor and am good friends with his family. This was amazing. I totally laughed out loud and had a good little cry! You’re funny but more importantly, you’re a good dude! I talked to Jonah’s mom yesterday and she said he had the best time! Good for you! You should be proud!

    I’m 37 years old and my youngest sibling is 26, she has a mild case of cerebral palsy. Her mind is all there but she’s stunted physically due to a complication during birth. She absolutely LOVES it when I make fun of her or tell her to shut up when she’s making noise 😂. And it’s because she feels normal and included. And that’s all special needs people want. They love being heckled and included in normal every day things. As long as it’s all in good humor and fun of course. So good on you TJ for including Jonah you just gave him the best time of his life 👏🏾🥳

Of all of the celebrities and entertainers I’ve worked with over the years he is the nicest. He talked me through a broken engagement (which was 2 days before our show) and after the show he greeted and talked to every fan that stayed after which was at least 200 over the 2 days. This special is a testament to this man’s passion and dedication to Stand Up Comedy and to the fans. Great job buddy!!

    Still my favorite comedian. There's clips that sadly aren't online anymore but would showcase TJ's incredible crowd work and improv as early as 2008 and I remember being a kid and wondering how it was possible to even be that clever. I'd scour the internet for anything with his crowd work and it put all improv to shame even to this day. TJ is the king spontaneous punchlines and rambles. To this day his performance on "This isn't Happening" about his brain tumor is the funniest performance I've ever seen. This was fantastic! Thanks for putting it up here!

    Wow, I was not sure how that was going to go. When you picked Jonah out of the crowd I could tell immediately he was special needs and oftentimes comics do not know how to move forward with that. It was a little awkward but I think you did a great job and that was so nice. These sorts of interactions stay with certain people for much longer and have a greater impact on them so I'm happy to see it's going to be a good memory for all.

You responded to my comment on your instagram live and said “which night were you there? That’s important.” Now i know why. And it totally speaks to who you are as a person. To have a special about YOU and you made it about someone else in the best way possible. You’ve always been my favorite comic/comedian, but now you’ve raised the bar. Cheers man

      I love this comment. It’s true- and that’s what improvisation is all about, and from a philosophical standpoint; the only great improvisation has to include that… being open, receptive and willing. And I’ll add- fearless. Because what’s the worst that could happen? You fail? I did that last night at my second show, and it didn’t feel great but it didn’t feel bad. Because the first show was almost completely Improvised and was literal fucking magic, thanks to the audience aaaaaand what you spoke of above!!!

    I’ve loved you’re sense of humor since I was in high school. I’m 33 now and of course still love you and honestly It’s seriously inspiring to see you do stand up. I mean, you’re a gem for humanity. You look great too, like dude you look pretty fuckin young still and I’m sure there’s a good reason for that too. I’m happy to see you doing great. Stand up in 2022 is so different and I think this is absolutely perfect for UA-cam. It felt like I bought a ticket to a show, not so much a special. It felt really organic and you’re just fun to watch. I love the helmet. I loved the set. I loved the video. I pray that this rocks UA-cam and becomes something even bigger and reaches further in an unexpected way. That would be cool and I’m excited for more good stuff.

It was just an absolute joy to watch and see your, no pun intended, interaction with Jonah. I loved it. My dad was a stand up comic and then on the show Laugh-In and Hogans heroes when I was little. He would've have absolutely loved this special. It was so much fun, all of it. You killed, T.J. Thank you so much for being so awesome.

UA-cam is the only route left to take for real comedy unless you're huge, like Louie, and sell your specials on your own site. Netflix is absolutely garbage nowadays, but if garbage is what you like, then have at it. I'd recommend you watch Shane Gillis' special on UA-cam, but you probably wouldn't like it; it's funny.
