The Slow Decline of Comedy Movies in U.S.

Making edgy jokes is extremely risky for an aspiring comedian or producer of entertainment. It can be career-ending if one makes the wrong comment or scene.

The comedy will need to be tailored to the new โ€œNerf ballโ€ and โ€œsnowflakeโ€ generations.

Is comedy a victim of woke culture? Give us your take in the comment section below.
