The film was produced by Roumain, Schwartz and Brian Volk-Weiss for New Wave Entertainment. Doug Shanaberger described it as a "wonderful new documentary", saying: "If you're wondering who they are, that's half the point. But you'll recognize them, and that's the other half."[2]

A sequel, That Gal...Who Was In That Thing: That Guy 2, focused on similarly lesser-known but familiar character actresses, including Catherine Hicks, Alicia Coppola and Roxanne Hart, was released on Showtime in March 2015.[3]

gollark: Except just doing boring identical computation.
gollark: I... see.
gollark: Well, it limits the amount of programs you can run rather a lot.
gollark: Also, does no I/O not present a bit of an issue in terms of doing anything?
