Humour and comedy

A good comedy for me is one I laugh at, especially if I have seen it many times before and still laugh out loud at something. A classic for me is Miranda.

I can't stand that, it makes me wince and cringe and feel really uncomfortable. There's something about watching someone in humiliating situations that I find really uncomfortable

me too - hated wathcinh Michael Crawford in "some mothers do 'ave'em.  

Too close to home for me I suspect

I tend to agree. My wife finds comedy in what I call cringe-comedy. We did watch Annie Hall (Woody Allen comedy) a few weeks ago. If his comedy is any reflection of his actual personal issues, I'd say we were separated at birth. Anyway... there are some Monty Python sketches (Buying A Bed, for example) that I think are absolutely genius comedy. However, I must say, all of George Carlin's stand-ups are my classic favorites.

I'm with you..too cringe...too uncomfortable.
