Über diesen Titel

Writer, performer and stand up comedian GD Fenderson and Movie/TV writer/producer A L Katz (HBO's Tales From The Crypt) discuss both what makes them laugh personally and what makes us laugh culturally. Just like its subtitle says: it's a serious look at the craft of creating comedy.
