The Differences Between American Comedy and British Comedy
The British comics that I see are a self-selected bunch of comedians who come to the comics. The Americans as more explicitly presenting themselves in your face as entertainers. That's one of the fundamental differences. Ricky Gervais did those famous, was it the Golden Globes or whatever it is? Right. Like, was there something about that that an American comic wouldn't have done? I don't know. He just eviscerated everybody. And for the comedy so, they're friends of Louis... somehow they've gotten in the door and they've decided for themselves that this is a good audience for them.
