Laughter In The Living Room

"This comprehensive study of the most successful television comedies - including domestic sitcoms, workplace comedies, variety shows, late-night comedy, animated comedy and others - reveals that, unlike the comedy found in firm on stage, in comedy clubs and concert halls, television's presentation of comic characters and stories must negotiate a relationship with the more privatized and value-laden environment of the American home that it enters."--Jacket.
