A farce, or slapstick humor, does well universally.
In L.A., though, people get off busses calling themselves actors, so many are really not professionals.
So many people aren't ready for Hollywood - professionally or practically.
The last thing on my mind was to be an actor, but I had a crush on a cute girl in the drama department, so the best thing for me to do was audition, help out, do carpentry, whatever it took to get me on that project.
I come from Bridgeport, Connecticut and have friends I grew up with there.
Sure, the comedians who swear or use scatological humor can get laughs, but they're uncomfortable laughs.
