Calling yourself a fan of comedy is like saying you're a fan of oxygen. Everybody loves to laugh.  But if you're like me, you're always interested in uncovering the "why" behind the laughter and to trace the lineage of the performances that have us rolling on the floor today.  I can't wait to dive into this six-part series on comedy in America. The series features performances and interviews with everyone from Will Rogers to Stephen Colbert, so if you think it's funny, odds are, you'll find it here.  Part One airs Wednesday, January 14th at 8pm (in HD) on WTCI.
