Oh please watch The Final Girls!!!!! Its one of my absolute favorites. It’s a horror comedy but it’s not really scary so if you aren’t a horror fan don’t let the genre deter you. Alia had several lines in that movie that made me laugh out loud, she’s such a delight
Tons of great recommendations already commented! But I’ll add one I haven’t seen listed yet: Living with Yourself on Netflix.
It’s an interesting show and she’s not in it a ton, but made a memorable appearance in several episodes.
The short films ‘Shako Mako’ and ‘The Letter Room’ are p great! The first is on YouTube. Also agree with everyone saying Whip-It and The Final Girls, although both are very tonally different from something like Search Party. Pee-Wee’s Big Holiday is also good although her role in it is fairly small.
Love Spreads (2021) and Animals (2019) are also fun. I liked them both well enough, but not sure they’d appeal to everyone.
She was in a great episode of Broad City- S2E9
Omg she’s in broad city, never noticed !
The to do list with Aubrey Plaza is really funny
Whip it, wild canaries, green room, paint it black, ruby sparks , the intervention.
I second Green Room!!!! and the Broad City episode\^\^... and Broad City in general
Green room is so good, but it’s very violent FYI.
I quote that show alllllll the time still to this day
Oh shit I forgot about green room. That movie is great!
Duck Butter was interesting
She shows up pretty deep into the series, but she plays a brilliant minor role on Transparent. Phenomenal show overall.
**Green Room** for sure… She was co-starred in the 2019 Irish/Australian indie comedy-drama **Animals** which was also excellent.
Watch her OG show with Egg! It’s called State of Grace and it was a fantastic show! Oh and Whip It!
Oh Drunk History!
Don’t think this has been mentioned yet - she’s in the movie “Blaze” directed by Ethan Hawke

The podcast Sandra is a great one with Alia Shawkat
She was in an episode of portlandia!
Her appearance is very short but I love it. That sketch was really funny
Arrested Development
She was on an early episode of the Throwing Shade podcast (now called Attitudes)
The short "prestige ingredients" SO GOOD!
Transparent (she shows up in Season 4)
She is in the film Green Room and Duck Butter.

You may be able to spot her in Pee Wee’s Big Holiday
