I suppose the best comedy shows do have the rock n' roll feeling - if it's a great night, and the roof is raised ... yeah, it's a similar feeling, sure. ~ Dylan Moran
Comedy Shows quotes by Dylan Moran
I don't know, people take chances on stage. It's a big free speech zone, a comedy show. So sometimes things happen, you say things that are a little bit off the edge. ~ Drew Carey
Comedy Shows quotes by Drew Carey
So my humor, I'd say, comes from a mixture of lowbrow comedy shows and highbrow theater. It's an interesting mix. ~ Jasper Fforde
Comedy Shows quotes by Jasper Fforde
I think every job that you do gives you the opportunity to learn something new. As hokey as that sounds, that's why I have a problem saying no to my friends. That's why I do so many random comedy shows. ~ Busy Philipps
Comedy Shows quotes by Busy Philipps
In my experience, it's not just that serious books get a hearing on comedy shows. But serious books get a serious hearing, as well as a funny one, on comedy shows. ~ Michael Mandelbaum
Comedy Shows quotes by Michael Mandelbaum
One of the coolest things was that, in 2007, I got to go to Iraq with Rob Riggle, Paul Scheer, and Horatio Sanz. We went over there to do some comedy shows with the U.S.O. ~ Rob Huebel
Comedy Shows quotes by Rob Huebel
They are two very different people. It's almost a modern-day 'Odd Couple,' if I had to characterize it, with the two of them portraying pretty close to who they are, which is why it's a hybrid of a reality and a comedy show. ~ Dawn Ostroff
Comedy Shows quotes by Dawn Ostroff
I've always been funny. I look back in the day, when I would take the mic from my dad in church and just start goin', at age six, the first time I did it. I think 14 was when I knew I wanted to do it and promote my own comedy shows at the church. Then, everyone would come. ~ Brandon T. Jackson
Comedy Shows quotes by Brandon T. Jackson
I do find myself surprised by the comedy shows that seem to have the same joke week in week out. ~ Clive Anderson
Comedy Shows quotes by Clive Anderson
Adult Swim has cornered this really cool market, especially for comedy shows. ~ Paul Scheer
Comedy Shows quotes by Paul Scheer
The economics favour one-man comedy shows: all you need is one person, a microphone and a PA system. But I'm pleased so many people are making a living out of comedy - it's a wonderful business to be in. ~ Paul Merton
Comedy Shows quotes by Paul Merton
Show, Trisha. Dennis had seen a Trisha episode about people with depression, and thought maybe his dad had that. Dennis loved Trisha. It was a daytime talk show where ordinary people were given the opportunity to talk about their problems, or yell abuse at their relatives, and it was all presided over by a kindly looking but judgemental woman conveniently called ... Trisha. For a while Dennis thought life without his mum would be some kind of adventure. He'd stay up late, eat take-aways and watch rude comedy shows. However, as the days turned into weeks, and the weeks turned into months, and the months turned into years, he realised that it wasn't an adventure at all. ~ David Walliams
Comedy Shows quotes by David Walliams
I'm addicted to laughing. I go to see a lot of comedy shows. I'm addicted to playing really loud and obnoxious rock music in my car. I'm addicted to beautiful clothes and shoes. I just love gorgeous stuff and work hard to acquire pretty things, shiny things. I'm addicted to shiny things! ~ Nadia Giosia
Comedy Shows quotes by Nadia Giosia
I think people tune in to watch a football game because they want to watch a football game. If they wanted to watch a stand-up comedy show on HBO, that's where they'd go ~ Dan Dierdorf
Comedy Shows quotes by Dan Dierdorf
I'd spent ten years in London, writing and performing my own comedy shows. They gave me the Cheers [scenes], and I thought it was the springboard for chatting about the show, because in England, that's what you do. So I walk in, and I'm looking around, and Jimmy Burrows said, "What are you looking at? You're not here to have a conversation; you're here to audition." ~ Shelley Long
Comedy Shows quotes by Shelley Long
I'm going to try really hard not to be bossy, but I've only done stand-up comedy and then my own show where you're the total boss of everything! ~ Rosie O'Donnell
Comedy Shows quotes by Rosie O'Donnell
I'm like a bumper car. When I did an infomercial I was fodder for every TV comedy show. I couldn't get a job. People said I was a huge joke. I've been a joke so many times. I've been on my way out since I started, but I'm strong-willed. My mother is so much tougher than I am and my grandmother is so much tougher than my mother. ~ Cher
Comedy Shows quotes by Cher
Whenever I do a comedy show I still just read poems, some of which are intentionally funny and some of which are just bizarre. The mix seems to work well. ~ Aaron Belz
Comedy Shows quotes by Aaron Belz
For the most part, comedy is the only fair part of show business. ~ Chris Rock
Comedy Shows quotes by Chris Rock
If you look at any successful skit comedy show, ever, there is that format of introducing you to the player in the beginning, and then going on to see those sketches. ~ Keegan-Michael Key
Comedy Shows quotes by Keegan-Michael Key
I do comedy shows. I make fun of myself, first of all. ~ Steve Burton
Comedy Shows quotes by Steve Burton
More people are going out to comedy shows than they were before. ~ Jimmy Carr
Comedy Shows quotes by Jimmy Carr
People bring camera phones into comedy shows and clubs and concerts, and sound bites never come out right. ~ Tracy Morgan
Comedy Shows quotes by Tracy Morgan
If you want good sketches, go pick up Sid Caesar. The best of Your Show of Shows. That's the greatest sketch comedy you'll ever see on television. ~ Jamie Farr
Comedy Shows quotes by Jamie Farr
I wanna leave this world better than I found it. I have the ability to draw people to my comedy shows so I wanna use that blessing not to make money but to make a difference. ~ Carlos Wallace
Comedy Shows quotes by Carlos Wallace
I'm very interested in trying to make comedy shows that are a bit bigger, more theatrical, more of a "show." Some people might say I'm trying too hard, but that's a compliment to me. I like to inject a bit of production value and flair to comedy, or at least to my little corner of comedy. ~ Bo Burnham
Comedy Shows quotes by Bo Burnham
Everyone goes through all kinds of relationship situations. I'm lucky that I get to be on two comedy shows [during divorce]. ~ Fred Armisen
Comedy Shows quotes by Fred Armisen
You can't get all of your news from Jon Stewart, especially since it's a comedy show. ~ Joe Klein
Comedy Shows quotes by Joe Klein
I consider myself a serious musician. Doing a comedy show does not take away from that in any way. ~ Kevin Eubanks
Comedy Shows quotes by Kevin Eubanks
Whatever you do, whether you're doing a television drama or a romantic comedy, you want to be relevant, to some degree. ~ John Ridley
Comedy Shows quotes by John Ridley
They call it coaching but it is teaching. You do not just tell them ... you show them the reasons. ~ Vince Lombardi
Comedy Shows quotes by Vince Lombardi
The writing style which is most natural for you is bound to echo the speech you heard when a child. English was the novelist Joseph Conrad's third language, and much of that seems piquant in his use of English was no doubt colored by his first language, which was Polish. And lucky indeed is the writer who has grown up in Ireland, for the English spoken there is so amusing and musical. I myself grew up in Indianapolis, where common speech sounds like a band saw cutting galvanized tin, and employs a vocabulary as unornamental as a monkey wrench.

In some of the more remote hollows of Appalachia, children still grow up hearing songs and locutions of Elizabethan times. Yes, and many Americans grow up hearing a language other than English, or an English dialect a majority of Americans cannot understand.

All these varieties of speech are beautiful, just as the varieties of butterflies are beautiful. No matter what your first language, you should treasure it all your life. If it happens not to be standard English, and if it shows itself when you write standard English, the result is usually delightful, like a very pretty girl with one eye that is green and one that is blue.

I myself find that I trust my own writing most, and others seem to trust it most, too, when I sound most like a person from Indianapolis, which is what I am. What alternatives do I have? The one most vehemently recommended by teachers has no doubt been pressed on you, as well: to w ~ Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
Comedy Shows quotes by Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
The history of antitrust law enforcement shows that successful antitrust prosecutions have often strengthened and brought vitality to extremely large companies and businesses. ~ Robert Kennedy
Comedy Shows quotes by Robert Kennedy
I love live theater; I like the relationship between the show and the audience. That's my comfort zone, but more than anything, it's what makes me happy. ~ Kristin Chenoweth
Comedy Shows quotes by Kristin Chenoweth
I'd rather have a lot of little donations than a couple big ones. That shows that people care and are giving what they can. ~ Steve Grand
Comedy Shows quotes by Steve Grand
The person smokes pot. Little alcohol, no hard drugs, but more than an occasional toke - although never while working: only at home, before bed. "Are you sure it shows up in your blood?" I asked, innocently. Ha. I'm an authority now. It stays in your bloodstream for six weeks. I called the executive producer, who said: "That can't be what they're testing for. It must be hard drugs." Ironically, though, if you're a cokehead or a heroin addict, relax: Those things go right out of you, a few days and they're gone. And you can also be the biggest alcoholic on the planet, but they won't test for that. ~ Christine Vachon
Comedy Shows quotes by Christine Vachon
I was in California the first time I heard Michael Jackson wanted to record with me. I was, like, 'Nah, no way, he's too big, it can't be true.' Then I got a call from Michael's people at my hotel telling me he was interested. But I still wasn't believing it - I thought they were setting me up for a TV practical jokes show. ~ Heavy D
Comedy Shows quotes by Heavy D
I've never been a shirt-off, pants-off kind of comedy guy. ~ Jason Sudeikis
Comedy Shows quotes by Jason Sudeikis
Latest survey shows that 3 out of 4 people make up 75% of the world's population. ~ Stephen Hawking
Comedy Shows quotes by Stephen Hawking
Michael Jordan brings millions of dollars when he shows up in an arena. Since money is how we judge people, he's very valuable. But while that's happening, Rome is burning within the black community. ~ Jim Brown
Comedy Shows quotes by Jim Brown
Show me a writer, any writer, who hasn't suffered and I'll show you someone who writes in pastels as opposed to primary colors. ~ Rita Mae Brown
Comedy Shows quotes by Rita Mae Brown
I am a marathon worker and marathon mother. I'll spend three or four days completely swallowed up by work. And if I make it home in time to say good night, I may have one good hour with the girls, maybe a brief family dinner or a family walk with the dog, and then it is back on the computer to prepare for tomorrow's shows. ~ Mika Brzezinski
Comedy Shows quotes by Mika Brzezinski
Found myself in Zurich Airport. I'd done a TV show, oddly enough, with Mavis Staples. That's the way they do it in Switzerland. And I'd had a bit of a late night with members of her band. And I was - my flight was delayed. And I was sitting in the airport, and I just came up with the idea. And by the time, we landed at Heathrow, I'd pretty much sort of got it. ~ Nick Lowe
Comedy Shows quotes by Nick Lowe
I grew up in Baltimore and that's why I root for the Orioles. I'm very suspicious of people who move and take on a new team. You should stick with the team of your youth all the way to your grave. That shows a sense of loyalty and devotion. ~ Frank Deford
Comedy Shows quotes by Frank Deford
When we developed the 'Seinfeld' show, we took a bet on Jerry Seinfeld, who was not a household name. But Jerry had a voice. He was appearing on 'Late Night', on 'The Tonight Show', had some commercials out there, his voice of observational comedy, looking at the world around him, that voice was really starting to come into its own. ~ Warren Littlefield
Comedy Shows quotes by Warren Littlefield
He acted as if he could detect in her face nothing but its external beauties of form and texture. Whereas, of course, flesh is never wholly opaque; the soul shows through the walls of its receptacle. ~ Aldous Huxley
Comedy Shows quotes by Aldous Huxley
I think serious situations actually make for the best kind of belly laughs. But they're also the hardest to convert into comedy at the outset. ~ Mike Birbiglia
Comedy Shows quotes by Mike Birbiglia
Be always at work scraping the dirt from the well.
To everyone who suffers, perseverance brings good fortune.
The Prophet has said that each prostration of prayer is a knock on heaven's door. When anyone continues to knock, felicity shows its smiling face. ~ Rumi Muhammad Jalal Ud Din Balkhi
Comedy Shows quotes by Rumi Muhammad Jalal Ud Din Balkhi
I do a TV show about a priest in London, and he is also slightly beleaguered and is subject to fate and misfortune and daily difficulty. ~ Tom Hollander
Comedy Shows quotes by Tom Hollander
Therein lies the potent, challenging gift afforded to us brave, lucky few, fortunate enough to be roasted onstage night after night by your mother: that of self-realization through comedic ego destruction. Your mother showed me with her comedy how to let go of who I thought I had to be and allowed me to embrace a life rooted in my love for you girls. ~ Ali Wong
Comedy Shows quotes by Ali Wong
I knew what I wanted to do when I set out. I knew that I wanted to write a book that told the story, obviously. I wanted it be comedy first, because I felt like there already had been childhood druggy stories that were very serious, and I felt that the unique thing here was that I was a comic and I could tell the story with some levity, and I have been laughing at these stories my whole life. ~ Moshe Kasher
Comedy Shows quotes by Moshe Kasher
One thing about open source is that even the failures contribute to the next thing that comes up. Unlike a company that could spend a million dollars in two years and fail and there's nothing really to show for it, if you spend a million dollars on open source, you probably have something amazing that other people can build on. ~ Matt Mullenweg
Comedy Shows quotes by Matt Mullenweg
Boring damned people. All over the earth. Propagating more boring damned people. What a horror show. The earth swarmed with them. ~ Charles Bukowski
Comedy Shows quotes by Charles Bukowski
I hate these reality TV shows where people walk off Big Brother and think they're A-list celebrities when they've done nothing in their lives, it really does my head in. ~ Kevin Pietersen
Comedy Shows quotes by Kevin Pietersen
History shows us that the people who end up changing the world - the great political, social, scientific, technological, artistic, even sports revolutionaries - are always nuts, until they are right, and then they are geniuses. ~ John Eliot
Comedy Shows quotes by John Eliot
My earliest influences would definitely be my father, just seeing him play in different bands and going to his shows and going to the rehearsals. You know what I'm saying, it was the typical story of a son looking up to his dad. So the years that my father was around, my father was my biggest influence. ~ Jon Connor
Comedy Shows quotes by Jon Connor
When you get big special effects pictures, sci-fi and things, there's little or no comedy. Or it's a domestic comedy and there's not one special effect. But very rarely do these things fuse and come out right. ~ Mel Brooks
Comedy Shows quotes by Mel Brooks
My comedy has no color, it's for everybody, black, white, Latino, Asian. It's not a pro-black show, not a def jam show; it's just straight, wholesome type of humor. ~ Bruce Bruce
Comedy Shows quotes by Bruce Bruce
While my father was out boozing, she'd read to me by the stub of a candle, a thread of soot twisting upwards from its pinched, meager flame. By her voice alone, she could raise up the old stories from the bones of their words and--lilting between shades of comedy and melodrama--turn the dreary space around me into a stage for my wildest imaginings. ~ Norman Lock
Comedy Shows quotes by Norman Lock
I've always loved movies, since I was a little kid, but I never wanted to be part of that industry. It always seemed horrifying, the way films were made. ~ Benh Zeitlin
Comedy Shows quotes by Benh Zeitlin
I work on fittings, mostly. You know, I sketch less and less in my work. I sketch for the show sometimes, but then it becomes more conceptual. But when I don't sketch, it becomes more pragmatic. ~ Alber Elbaz
Comedy Shows quotes by Alber Elbaz
There is this incredible, indelible community that has sprung up around the show, a community that gathers in homes and clubs, from Los Angeles to Topeka, Kansas and around the world. A community that, in some places, meets quietly in a lesbian bar that doesn't even exist depending on whom you ask. ~ Jennifer Beals
Comedy Shows quotes by Jennifer Beals
Most of the shows I want to do I'm not smart enough to figure out how to watch. ~ David Spade
Comedy Shows quotes by David Spade
Good resolutions are a pleasant crop to sow. -The seed springs up so readily, and the blossoms open so soon with such a brave show, especially at first. But when the time of flowers has passed, what as to the fruit? ~ Lucas Malet
Comedy Shows quotes by Lucas Malet
You're brave." Lorna said. "I'm not," I assured her, trying not to bristle. I hate being called brave. It's almost as bad as inspiring. ~ Marieke Nijkamp
Comedy Shows quotes by Marieke Nijkamp
I feel like not only are 'Parenthood' fans passionate, but that passion has grown over the run of the show and people got more invested as the show has gone on. That really does help keep shows on the air. ~ Jason Katims
Comedy Shows quotes by Jason Katims
If we turn from contemplating the world as a whole, and, in particular, the generations of men as they live their little hour of mock-existence and then are swept away in rapid succession; if we turn from this, and look at life in its small details, as presented, say, in a comedy, how ridiculous it all seems! ~ Arthur Schopenhauer
Comedy Shows quotes by Arthur Schopenhauer
Heaven has its business and earth has its business: those are two separate things. Heaven, that's the angels' pasture; they are happy; they don't have to fret about food and drink. And you can be sure that they have black angels to do the heavy work like laundering the clouds or sweeping the rain and cleaning the sun after a storm, while the white angels sing like nightingales all day long or blow in those little trumpets like they show in the pictures we see in church. ~ Jacques Roumain
Comedy Shows quotes by Jacques Roumain
Now, at this point, I can wrestle, I can go out there and cut an entertaining promo, I can also do the backstage stuff ... and if you can contribute more to the show, you have more staying power. ~ Trish Stratus
Comedy Shows quotes by Trish Stratus
I'm writing a record of comedy songs. I'm doing all these collaborations with artists. I bring them lyrics and they write the music to it. ~ Margaret Cho
Comedy Shows quotes by Margaret Cho
Comedy is surprise. Comedy is not something that you can, necessarily, do twice. ~ Bryan Callen
Comedy Shows quotes by Bryan Callen
Behavior is a mirror in which every one shows his image. ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Comedy Shows quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Yeah no shit, try asking random people about a bird owned by someone you don't know!" Javal countered "Well still you got it!" Javal acknowledged this with a small grin "Now what?" Javal asked Ingra scratched his head "Yeah...Well Dilmore suggested the idea....Not me. ~ Charon Lloyd-Roberts
