Each of the six one-hour episodes--including "When I'm Bad, I'm Better - The Groundbreakers" and "Slip on a Banana Peel - The Knockabouts"--focuses on a particular comic style; the nostalgia-inducing series offers interviews with legendary comedians such as Larry David, Bill Maher, Carl Reiner, Jerry Seinfeld, and Lily Tomlin, as well as classic footage from the funniest movies and television shows of the past century.
