I like more grounded comedy. I enjoy broad comedies also, but I like Shirley MacLaine.
Leslie Mann
Image
NBC gives comedies a chance to find their legs.
Gillian Jacobs
Image
I have a dark sense of humor, so I definitely like to work on stuff like that. I do enjoy working in comedies where I can create a fun and broad character.
Fiona Gubelmann
Image
There are so many great comedies, right now. I like how comedies are really mixing. They're not just one thing. It can be very moving and dramatic, and yet hilarious.
Sarah Silverman
Image
Especially in comedies, I think a lot of time the female characters are there to provide a balance for guys.
Zooey Deschanel
Image
Comedies are very hard to do. They are difficult. Unless there's the Judd Apatow school, where they're like okay, we know that, we're going to do those. Or unless it's something that's far to the other side.
Don Cheadle

I like to watch comedies the most dramatic that I used to get was 'Forrest Gump.'
Evan Peters
Image
You make films whether they're dramas or comedies about neurotic people. Flawed people. Interesting personality traits. To make them about calm, stable untroubled people isn't interesting.
Woody Allen
Image
I played comedies and dramas.
William Shatner
Image
Most of the comedies I've done have been rather farcical and extravagant.
Kevin Kline
Image
There's not many good comedies to watch - you know, comedies that make you glad you watched them.
B. J. Novak
Image
I think there's a lack of quality roles for women in comedies. Most actresses get cast as the eye-roller or the serious one, while men in comedies get to do all the fun, silly stuff and muck around. Sometimes you just have to search hard for a role or create one for yourself.
Isla Fisher
Image
It's fun for me to couple emotion with comedy. I think it helps comedy. I think a lot of times American comedies don't play on emotion too much.
Zach Galifianakis
Image
I like physical comedy. And I like the old comedies.
Patrick Dempsey
Image
I think with the success of, like, every summer there has been a couple R-rated comedies that have done so well I think it is so nice to see that people are turning out to see these movies, and it doesn't seem to be as big a stigma with the studios anymore.
Will Ferrell
Image
Some of the things I've been in are comedic, but I don't get considered for true comedies because I'm a 'dramatic' actor.
Noah Emmerich
Image
One of my favorite comedies is Three Amigos! Oh my gosh, me and my brother quote that all the time.
Jason Dolley
Image
It goes without saying that 'Buncha Losers' comedies speak to tough times. The massive unemployment of the Reagan years gave us 'Taxi,' 'Cheers' and the genre-defining 'Night Court,' a show you could never admit to watching without making people feel sorry for you.
Rob Sheffield
Image
I'd love to become like Bill Murray, who was so funny on 'Saturday Night Live' and has gone on to do some of the landmark comedies people like. And then to add this whole other phase to his career with 'Lost in Translation' and 'Rushmore.' I always felt to be able to have something similar to that would be great.
Will Ferrell
Image
Female roles in comedies are usually quite silly, I think.
Naomi Watts
Image
I regard romantic comedies as a subgenre of sci-fi, in which the world operates according to different rules than my regular human world.
Mindy Kaling
Image
If you purposefully look to shock people, it isn't funny. That's what 50 million dollar Hollywood comedies do try to be shocking and dirty.
John Waters
Image
I don't have the body or the face for romantic comedies, so I've never been offered those. The challenge is that a lot of people see you only as your last character, so you're constantly competing with whatever your last movie was.
Glenn Close
Image
A lot of people are doing television now. Great, legendary actors are doing movies on cable and stuff now, and you can't blame them, because they're still doing adult dramas and adult comedies on those stations.
