Julia Sweeney's character, Mea C, says "sorry" in this film 17 times.
In the book "Live From New York - an Uncensored History of Saturday Night Live", Al Franken reveals that he originally wrote the first Stuart Smalley sketch with the intention of having Mike Myers play the part, but when Myers read it during read-through, it didn't really work because Franken had written it in his own voice. According to Franken, it was probably Robert Smigel who suggested that Al should play the part himself. Franken also confessed that after the character became popular, he would also be present when Lorne Michaels decided which sketches would be cut between the dress rehearsal and the live show, and Franken would often demand that his sketches were kept in.
Al Franken used his real-life experience with 12-step programs in expanding on the Stuart Smalley character from SNL to a feature-length film.
Al Franken became depressed after the film's critical failure.
