I don't know if comedy is a male sport. I always wondered that.
Most modern comedy is crap.
If you stretch tragedy, it will always become comedy.
I played comedies and dramas.
To me, horror and comedy never work. Never worked for me, anyway.
With comedy, you really want to work things out beforehand.
Reality is the scary thing. Not my work, not comedy.
Let the preacher tell the truth. Let him make audible the silence of the news of the world with the sound turned off so that in the silence we can hear the tragic truth of the Gospel, which is that the world where God is absent is a dark and echoing ...
I got it! I got it!” Heeb declared triumphantly. Evan stopped in the middle of his kitchenette to hear Heeb’s idea. “Sex in the Title.” “Yeah, that’s what you’ve been saying I need.” “No, that’s the title: ‘Sex in the Title.’�...
What’s SQ?” asked Evan. “Sexual Quotient.” “What’s that?” “Basically, it’s your odds of getting laid. Everyone has an SQ. just like everyone has an IQ.” “I’ve never heard that term before.” “That’s because I made it up.�...
