Question of the Week

Comedy or Drama?

Marlene Babcock, 62, dental insurance appeals specialist

Allegedly laughing through the pain at 19 Last Laugh Lane, Scranton, PA

Comedy. I have enough drama in my life without paying fourteen dollars to watch somebody else's marriage collapse. If I want two hours of emotional devastation, I can call my sister and ask how Thanksgiving went.

Russell Pritchard, 56, municipal parking enforcement supervisor

Allegedly confronting the human condition at 404 Tragic Ending Boulevard, Akron, OH

Drama. Comedy encourages people to believe things will work out. Drama prepares them for reality. My favorite films end with everybody miserable and at least one person staring silently out a window. That is what I call an honest evening's entertainment.

Gloria Nettleton, 73, retired church organist

Allegedly awaiting the final curtain at 8 Mixed Emotions Circle, Peoria, IL

I prefer a comedy that gradually becomes a drama. That is how life works. Everybody starts out laughing, somebody makes a questionable decision, and before you know it the family is gathered in a hospital corridor discussing who gets the good china.
