Seriously, though, mojo: what about Ellen Degeneres? I think she's funny in a kind of funny odd way. And...though you may not get Saturday Night Live reruns...there are lots of funny women there! Well, a couple of them, at least.
Yeah we don't really get SNL here. I think there are still a couple of satellite channels that show it but its not exactly regular programming here. I'm sure there are a lot of funny women write for SNL. After all both Tina Fey and Julia Louis Dreyfus, whom i mentioned in my post, have SNL backgrounds.

I'm not an Ellen Degeneres fan though, i have to admit.

And I agree! Pheobe was the worst Friend.

Chandler FTW

Y"ou think I'm funny don't you? What do you know? You're a door. You only like knock knock jokes."
Actually, i think that the majority of writers on Friends over the years were women. I could probably pull a statistic from somewhere on the net to back that up if i could be arsed but I am reasonably sure that it's true.

And Lisa Kudrow was the worst Friend? No way. Courtney Cox was rarely all that humorous but Jennifer Aniston really matured on that show I feel. Especially in later seasons, she really did become a much better comic actress.
