Description
Sit-coms are the most popular form on television and provide more work than any other kind of writing. The best comedy writing in the entertainment industry is done on sitcoms. But sit-coms are NOT jokes. They are comic short stories, and they have unique, highly-structured forms. The trick is knowing the sit-com story structures that actually produce the laughs, writing comedy from character, and playing with the ongoing web of oppositions.
