A profile of Ze Frank in today’s New York Times:
All the feedback started Mr. Frank thinking, and he decided to turn his show over to his viewers. He offered them no guidance, and promised to perform their script faithfully, so long as it was under three minutes long, and required no nudity….
Clay Shirky, an adjunct professor at New York University’s interactive telecommunications program and another writer for Fabuloso Friday, said the script began to reflect what he called the two truths of comedy writing: “Most people aren’t funny, and most funny people are not funny most of the time.”
Via Waxy.org. I haven’t actually seen the “Fabuloso Friday” in question, but the show, in general, is pretty good.
