!!This film contains examples of:
* CrazySurvivalist: David, besides advising Jerry on comedy and sex, also tells him to have guns in the house, in case something happens and he has to defend his integrity, but the scenarios he puts become more outlandish every time.
* HotBlooded: Harvey Wexler, Jerry's agent, is quite hot-tempered, which is only exacerbated by him not seeming to be that great at his job.
* ManicPixieDreamGirl: Subverted. Jerry falls hopelessly in love with Amanda, but she proves to be an uncompromising, unsure, difficult, and insecure girlfriend.
* WritersBlock: Jerry struggles with writer's block on top of his romantic problems.
* YourCheatingHeart: Jerry already had a girlfriend, Brooke, when he fell in love and began an affair with Amanda.
