      Cows don't question their food source. They just masticate on whatever's in front of them. The comedian is the one cow in the herd who raises his head and observes, "Hey, we're eating grass here!"

      Drama helps us dream about what we could be., but comedy helps us live with who we are.

    To be honest, I find the blind man's dog slipping on the banana peel most funny.
    Just because the dog should have it's eyes open and is walking on four feet.
    It triggers a scenario in my head around the dog and it's blind men within this small context given.
    Loved this episode! 👍

    I liked the key jangling. Reminds me of the technique in many recent films and shows.

    I’m not a writer but he is spot on about that episode of “Raymond.” It was hilarious and with the length and not really anticipating what he would say, that line was 100% Ray. I think it also represents what the average person’s reaction might be as well😂

    I find whats funny isnt really funny. Like when someone bumps their head its funny to me then he says what's so funny, then you laugh even more. I find seriousness can be hilarious. Sarcasm is funny. Situations can be funny as hell to us but not to the participants experiencing it. Im writing a script now which makes my girlfriend laugh a lot. But its not funny to the characters in the story at all. I think home alone is a great example of great comedy. Throughout the film. I loved this video. Thank you for presenting it. I will save it and watch several times.

    He said he hated "This is Us," and you didn't ask him why. ARRRRGH!!! (Or if you did ask, you edited out his answer.) The key to a good interview, as master interviewer Bryant Gumbel once said, is to ask the question the audience would ask.

      He didn’t need a follow-up answer because it’s This is us.

      @@KM-hk8tc Discerning minds never presume to know someone's answer before they ask a question. His reason for hating This is Us might've surprised us or enlightened us or merely made us laugh. But we'll never know.
      Interesting that you said "you're welcome" even though I never expressed my thanks. Seems like presumption is a habit of yours.
      Take care, friend.
