Entertainment Weekly Alynda Wheat
Casual fans of funny need not apply. It's the hardcore--those who care how comics write jokes, what inspires them, and whether they play well with others--who'll dig this tour show. [11 Nov 2005, p.64]

Los Angeles Times Paul Brownfield
The six-episode series is carved up into half-hour films that are at once droll and subtly revealing of character; in fact, compared with NBC's low-rent contrivance "Last Comic Standing"... "The Comedians of Comedy" is practically "Jules et Jim."

This show provides great insight into being a road comic and into the process behind writing jokes. I should know, I've seen Comedian.
