I think at its best the American sense of humor is the same as the British sense of humor at its best, which is to be wry and ironic and self deprecating.

I think the Canadian sense of humor is dryer than America's and juicier than Britain's. I think it's a cross between the two of them, really.

Every Brit I met had the best sense of humor. They're hilarious: very dry and witty.

Brits have a better sense of humor in most ways. It's darker, more cutting.

I think American guys tend to be a bit more forward, a bit more chatty and open than the Brits. The Brits seem to have a darker sense of humor, though I have met some Americans who have adopted bits of the British dry sense of humor as well.

I have no idea what a British sensibility or a British sense of humor is. I have no concept of what that is. I have no concept of what American sensibility is. I was born in Great Britain, but I was only there for six months, and we moved to Belgium, where I grew up.

The British have turned their sense of humour into a national virtue. It is odd, because through much of history, humour has been considered cheap, and laughter something for the lower orders. But British aristocrats didn't care a damn about what people thought of them, so they made humour acceptable.

I suppose I miss the British cynicism and the humor.

Sometimes Americans don't quite get my sense of humor. My good ol' British sarcasm seems to go over their heads.

Americans like to think 'Python' is how English people really are. There is an element of truth to that.
