The idea that humor is objective and what makes people laugh, or what makes something or sombody "funny" has been a debate almost as long as humor itself. Bu tthe fact is, there are people that have been successful with great carreres who some would argue meet certain featues that in fact connect with and audiance and illicits enjoyment.
In Mr.x's Disertation on stand up comedians he focuses on established comedians Jery Seinfeld and Stephen Write. he breaks it down by x x x x x and folows why they think
While he makes many good points on the subject he adresses the medium of comediands in a live act on a stage., I would like to see how a comedian uses the moves when he has the benefits from a taped show with the use of visual aides, other comedians to play off of, and current events at their disposal
John Stewart from The Daily Show has successfully transitioned from stand up to comedy show/talk show.
This paper will examine how he adapts the conventions of standup comedy into a fiffrent medijm and how it has made him sucessful.
