Saturday Morning is a 2007 American comedy film written and directed by Rob Greenberg and starring Joey Piscopo, George Wendt, Valerie R. Feingold, Louis Mandylor, Ashley Carin, Victor Raider-Wexler, Beth Ostrosky, and Lillo Brancato, Jr.

Saturday Morning was Greenberg's first feature film, shot independently after years of failing to break into the industry. The film was inspired in combination by waking up early on a Saturday morning, an episode of Night Court, and driving into New York City for a date. Exterior filming was done in the town of Westfield, NJ, were the TV Series Ed was also shot.[1]
