Mulaney has written for IFC’s Documentary Now and Netflix’s Big Mouth, on which he voices the character of Andrew. He’s also starred on Broadway in the runaway hit written and performed alongside Nick Kroll in Oh, Hello On Broadway. The duo have since release a Netflix special of the same name, as well as Oh, Hello: The P’dcast, based off their characters Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland.
