If you're a reporter...
If you're a reporter and you're doing an article on a comedy troupe or comedy performer and you think it'd be clever to say at some point that the troupe or person is, "serious about their comedy" or that their "comedy is serious business"...
Don't.
It's lame. It makes you lame. It makes us lame. It makes the world lamer.

funny you should mention that. a local paper once did a story about us with the headline: "Comedy is Serious Business For Improv Troupe"
Sounds like the same types of reporters that come to stunning revelations like "Bam! Pow! Comic books ahave grown up!"
I bought the Corner Gas season 2 DVD (starring Vancouver improvisor Nancy Robertson) and they had as a bonus two clips that E Talk Daily did. Both had the intro, "And now a story that's gone to the dogs, Dog River that is". Both!
