What Makes Us Laugh

無料で聴く

Writer, performer and stand up comedian GD Fenderson and Movie/TV writer/producer A L Katz (HBO's Tales From The Crypt) discuss what makes them laugh personally and what makes us laugh culturally. What exactly do we even mean by "a sense of humor"? From the eureka moment of imagining a punch line to the business of selling it, just like its subtitle says, What Makes Us Laugh is a serious look at the craft of creating comedy.

    THE BLURB: For a decade, Alan and Gil Adler - this episode's guest - were not only best friends, but creative partners, too. Together they wrote and produced (and directed) TV shows like Freddy's Nightmares and HBO's iconic "Tales From The Crypt"; in fact, Alan and Gil co-created The Crypt Keeper. Though they made something of a career out of horror, neither Gil nor Alan actually were fans of horror. Both went into movies, TV (and, for Gil, the theater) expecting to make comedies. In this episode, we talk about how our paths converged and then put us on a collision course with Crypt.
