When Jessica Fischer moved to New York City in 2000 to pursue a career in entertainment, she weighed over 300 pounds. While this might be limiting to other aspiring actresses, Jessica quickly found a niche for herself as a stand up comic and began performing at clubs around the city. At the same time, she began to seriously pursue a gastric bypass in hopes of overcoming her lifelong battle with obesity. What's So Funny? follows Jessica's journey after her surgery. Not only does she lose the weight, but also her drive and ability to perform comedy, which she perceived as her ticket into the world of entertainment. While her physical transformation is remarkable, the emotional challenges prove to be more life changing.
