I love comedy, but I am very picky about what I classify as comedy. Much of what is out there I don't consider funny, and a lot it not even worthy of noting as entertainment.
I am not a prude, I was a big fan of George Carlin and Richard Pryor, but I don't see the need for too many foul words to comprise an act. In fact, I believe it lowers the person by using four letter words when there are others that fit there just as easily.
Humor takes on so many forms - the slapstick comedy of Abbott and Costello; the animated cartoons antics of Heckle and Jeckle; and the comedy skit of Johnny Carson. They were clean, but brought more belly laughs than most of what you see on the Comedy Channel today.
I would like to share one example of good, clean comedy - at it's best. Check out these websites:
