In response to "Thanks ML for that Vulture link" by con_carne

Yes, Thanks ML. That really is brilliant.

I kept reading it and hoping certain things would be on it, worrying they wouldn't only to be reassured when they were listed.

The list is great at dissecting why something was fun, it's relevancy at the time and why it's important going forward.

ST made me start to really look at what makes things funny. I can even pinpoint the joke, Dignan's, "If he thinks all I'm going to do to him is..." joke. I spent more time than I care to admit figuring out why it was funny. Then the Cockneck Incident. Those two things from ST really started me thinking about what makes something funny. One of the colleges here has a course on comedy which I'd like to take.

So, again, thanks for the link.
