The essays in this collection explore taboo and controversial
humour in traditional scripted (sitcoms and other comedy series,
animated series) and non-scripted forms (stand-up comedy, factual
and reality shows, and advertising) both on cable and network
television. Whilst the focus is predominantly on the US and UK, the
contributors also address more general and global issues and
different contexts of reception, in an attempt to look at this kind
of comedy from different perspectives. Over the last few decades,
taboo comedy has become a staple of television programming, thus
raising issues concerning its functions and appropriateness, and
making it an extremely relevant subject for those interested in how
both humour and television work.
