hey all, I am a funny person (looks as well as personality to all who know me) but when it comes to putting my humour into a sitcom i sometimes struggle- anyone offer any advice as to a better way to convert my raw humour into total sitcom quality?
thanks

Maybe you could join a theater or improv group and try to act out traces of humor as you act out characters. Hope this helps.

I don't know if this is the sort of advice that you are looking for, but it seems to me that some of the funniest routines involve those that find humor in everyday situations.

You might find that you can really connect with an audience if they can identify with you, and say to themselves "yeah, he's right! I've done the same thing myself!"
