For storytelling purposes, there has to be conflict, but that doesn't mean the people have to be mean. I've never liked mean-spirited comedy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Mean comedy is not really something that I personally gravitate towards or something that I do.
I try to be an ethical, moral person and a nice person, and I like to have that reflected in my comedy. I'm not a mean comedian, and I don't think that my comedy is mean. I think that for the most part, it's more focused on the diversity that we all handle and try to provide a distraction from the disaster of modern living.
Comedy comes from conflict, from hatred.
Being mean just for being mean's sake isn't funny.
Creating a wonderful drama is an art form, while comedy is just entertainment.
I don't hold any candle for drama versus comedy.
The best comedy, I feel, comes in a drama because it balances each other out.
There's nothing more fun than mean-spirited characters.
Comedy always works best when it is mean-spirited.
For me comedy and violence has a lot in common. Just as you expect, comedy always lurks behind the most unexpected of circumstances.
