I sat there in awe that some guy overseas, trying to protect our interests, was using a silly comedy as a survival tool. My brain had an explosion. I was really moved by that.

That's what I always liked about science fiction - you can make the world end. Humour is my multiple warhead delivery system.

Comedy is a great weapon of attack. It's not a great weapon of support.

I'll tell you one thing... no doubt about it, my favorite kind of comedy is talking head comedy. I mean, if it were up to me, I'd do a whole entire movie that was just around a dinner table.

My comedy is different than a lot of people's.

I am into comedy.

I do comedy to give people an ephemeral escape from the tragedy that permeates everyday life.

Comedy is not my first go-to sort of genre.

A joke bombing on stage doesn't bother me, especially if it's intended to bomb.

The best kind of comedy to me is when you make people laugh at things they've never laughed at, and also take a light into the darkened corners of people's minds, exposing them to the light.
