Comedy's so subjective, and if someone comes to watch, doesn't get it, doesn't find it funny, then fine.

Everybody says how hard comedy is, but, when it comes time to honor things, whether it's on a weekly critical basis or whether it's award time, at that time of the year, comedy is the poor, dumb child of dramatic work.
