I find that working with friends is always the goal, even if it's just one person. Because the comedy community is kind of insular, it's easy to run into people you've worked with, even if you worked with someone on something for a day, or whatever. It just makes it more comfortable.

As opposed to film, where it's still those basic tropes of good versus evil. But for women, I don't think that has been widely seen yet.
