Self - Guest. Related Videos. It's made comedy more widespread. People who are living under a rock but are funny now have an opportunity for everyone to see them being funny. It is not an environment for the socially awkward, which, ironically, is what most funny people are. It can be a nightmare. But a lot of writers are frustrated performers and attention-seekers who need their egos stroked. It's almost like you're onstage telling jokes all day.
It depends on your personality. My mom spoiled me from the age of zero. I've always felt like I was special and everything I say needs to be heard. From day one, when I get in a writers' room I let them know I'm here to tell jokes, I'm not here to be quiet.
If you speak up and you're bold and you're not afraid, that's good, but what you're saying has to be funny because if it's not and you never shut up and you're always pitching, people are going to hate you. The Family Guy room was mean in a great way. You could never wear a new hat or a new pair of glasses or you'd get savaged.
All that stuff tends to blend into one and make you yawn. The word 'cunt' 10 years ago, even five years ago, would have been incredibly shocking.
Now I feel that it's one of those words that everybody knows is shocking, so that takes its shock value away. I think Tina Fey [who devoted an episode of 30 Rock to being called the C-word] is helped by who she is, honestly. Because she has such a pristine image and is revered by critics and the comedy community, she's allowed a wide berth to do what she thinks is funny. I think it's strange that they would allow her to do an episode where you can kind of hint around the word 'cunt', but then you can't do an episode where somebody's smoking a cigarette.
You can make all kinds of race jokes but you can't have somebody drink a beer. I think that's just a testimony to what a weird, fucked-up country America is.
He's a hilarious guy, he generates big ideas — Ted was his — and he has the confidence to believe that what he's doing is right at all times. I would definitely call him the leader of the three of us. When it comes to Wellesley and I, we've known each other since college. I love slapstick and Wellesley comes from a place where his comedy mind is very absurdist.
We've been writing together for a very long time and it gets challenging because we don't always see eye-to-eye on what we think is funny. Just in the way that a marriage gets rough because you know each other so well; there's never any mystery.
