The history of the relationship between comedy and swimming is short indeed. Of course it is always funny when someone falls into water, but that's about it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When synchronised swimming first appeared on TV, we laughed very heartily, and I, for one, applauded the decision to introduce humour into the Olympics.
The comedy world is like a small pond; we all know each other.
In life, comedy occurs naturally, as it should, in the most appalling of circumstances.
There is a universality to comedy.
Comedy tends to come out of things which are quite painful and serious.
I think the main thing about comedy and humor is that it's impossible and always was impossible to define.
It seems that two of the most basic forms of comedy are jokes and stories. And, of course, they are not mutually exclusive.
Comedy is simply a funny way of being serious.
Let's not call physical comedy falling down and pratfalls. All humor is physical, no matter how you dish it out. It's timing, like a dancer or an athlete would have.
I think that comedy is one of the more serious things that you can do in our day, especially in the world that we're living in.
