Hey there bud... I'm not sure if you know this or not, but you're not the arbiter of what is or is not funny.

No, but I am the arbiter of what I find funny. And ironically, this is comedy by committee.

Is it "comedy by committee" or do people just find things funny that you don't?

I'm describing how the writers' room operates for a show like this. People have different senses of humour, of course.

Unlike the writers' rooms that aren't committees?

You're a peculiar little fellow, if you'll pardon the ad hominem. Yes, writers' rooms in general produce very homogenous and bland comedy. I'm going to study Chinese again.

I'm just not sure what TV comedy shows don't have writer's rooms...

Is it just that you think there is nothing funny on TV?

What can I say, I'm a peculiar little fellow.

You are. And you are also making a bizarre claim that there is no such thing as a funny TV comedy. Unless you can name the funny one without a writer's room.

Also, you must find most comedy movies unfunny since they are usually written by multiple people doing various drafts and touch-ups.

That's your idea of comedy, is it?
