And consider the characters in TV shows. The females are mostly "straight men" (so to speak) for the funny male characters. Take Two and a half Men, for example: the hot woman (Claudia, I think) is not funny, and usually neither is the effeminate guy (Alan). Most of the good lines are reserved for Charlie Sheen's character, the boy, and the fat ugly woman (Roberta). Again, in that stupid Jim Belushi show, the two hot wives never make the jokes. Women don't even seem to have any funny parts written for them on TV unless it's called The <woman's name> Show. Even in cartoons, Lisa and Marge Simpson, all the women on Family Guy, maybe Lou-Ann on King of the Hill...

I haven't seen a really funny woman since Much Ado About Nothing. And even then, they're not delivering it like it's comedy.

Much to think about.

Thankyee!

Someone should do this to Two And A Half Men. That show is so incredibly anti-funny that... it's not even funny. They often have the laugh track start laughing before a joke is at the punch-line, which I theorize is an attempt to make people to think what they're about to hear is funny. But it's not. It never is. Terrible, terrible show.

I want to know who conspired to make Two and a Half Men. And keep it on the air.

Hah, tried. Don't remember seeing that ever work.
