There are two types of actors. There's the actors who can acknowledge that they could never do standup comedy. Then there's the pretentious ones, who believe that acting is harder than standup comedy. I definitely don't think it is. I also think making a comedy is substantially harder than making a drama.

If someone says something really funny, I've never seen a comedian abuse them, you always sort of tip your hat a little bit if they nail it.
