'''''It's Me...Gerald''''' is a Canadian television [[sitcom]], which aired on [[Showcase (Canadian TV channel)|Showcase Television]] in 2005.<ref>[https://www.dailyxtra.com/tv-review-schadenfruit-23488 "TV review: Schadenfruit"]. ''[[Daily Xtra]]'', August 31, 2005.</ref>

The show, based on the [[2004]] [[mockumentary]] film ''Gerald L'Ecuyer: A Filmmaker's Journey'', stars Canadian actor and director [[Gerald L'Ecuyer]] as a fictionalized version of himself, in a format which somewhat resembles the [[United States|American]] comedy series ''[[Curb Your Enthusiasm]]''. L'Ecuyer, the character, is a struggling [[gay]] theatre director trying to stage a production of ''[[Hedda Gabler]]'', who gets involved in various misadventures as he tries to find, through any means necessary, the money to finance his vision while a camera crew documents his efforts.<ref>"Mockumentary reflects Canadian sense of humour". ''[[Victoria Times-Colonist]]'', September 4, 2005.</ref>

The cast also includes [[Beau Starr]], [[Mark Day (actor)|Mark Day]], [[Mary McLaughlin]], [[Kristen Thomson]] and [[Tom McCamus]]. The series was created by writer-producers [[Gail Cook]] and [[John McLaughlin (producer)|John McLaughlin]] in conjunction with L'Ecuyer.
