The thing that makes Trainwreck different is a very specific thing going on called voice. It’s Amy Schumer's very specific voice and Judd Apatow's very specific voice that translate this drama into comedy.
If you're interested in writing a comedy, this is something that you should definitely think about. Some of the best comedies do not come from trying to be funny. The best comedies come from trying to be real, saying the things we don't want to say and looking at the things that we don't want to look at.
You can see this in Amy Schumer's sketch work, just as you can see it in Trainwreck. You can see it in shows like Louie. As a wiser man than me once said: comedy is just unrequited want. And in that way comedy and drama are exactly the same thing. Comedy is just a way of executing unrequited want.
