"Legit" stars Jim Jefferies as an edgy, foul-mouthed stand-up comedian from Australia, in his mid-30s and living in LA, endeavoring to make his life and career more “legit,” only to find it a difficult, uncomfortable uphill struggle every step of the way. Jim is encouraged in his quest by Steve, his neurotic best friend and roommate, a cyber-law library salesman who struggles to stay on his feet in the wake of a divorce, and Steve’s brother Billy, who suffers from advanced staged Muscular Dystrophy and is confined to a wheelchair. Jim deals with the fall out of being shot by a heckler and considers quitting comedy. Billy goes to a video game tournament. Jim stops drinking in solidarity with Steve and starts to suffer from panic attacks. Through a misunderstanding, Jim ends up at a married ex-girlfriend's house for a costume party. Janice and Walter stage an intervention to confront Steve's drinking unaware of a coke party Jim has accidentally set in motion in his bedroom. Steve's daughter comes to visit from Cincinnati but a revelation about his ex-wife sends Steve into an out of control bender. His absence forces Jim into the unlikely role of surrogate parent for the weekend. Jim performs a sexual act to get a female executive in Hollywood to help him land roles.
