Alan R. Cohen & Alan Freedland, writers/producers of Due Date, American Dad – :
Making people cry is easy. Making people laugh is hard. Teaching people how to make other people laugh is even harder. Keith Giglio does it in a straightforward and humorous way!
Tom Martin, two-time Emmy Award winner for Fox TV’s The Simpsons – :
A must-read for all comedy writers. It’s entertaining, inspirational, and packed full of valuable information.
David Breckman, writer/producer, Monk, Saturday Night Live – :
Breezy, accessible, and — above all — useful. Giglio’s book won’t turn you into a better lover (sorry, Mom), but it WILL help you become a better screenwriter.
