In real life, comedians aren’t funny (Michael Showalter Quotes)
I just made a movie. There’s a kind of a banter that some people might recognize as being screwball. There are no cell phones, no DVD playersit’s set in a timeless Brooklyn. Hopefully, it’s a good, old-fashioned movie (Michael Showalter Quotes)

I tend to a lot of improvisational ranting, and that’s fun. For me, stand-up has been, performance-wise, a really good outlet (Michael Showalter Quotes)
I like the comedians that go into detail and tell longer stories (Michael Showalter Quotes)
Love is such a confusing word. You think I’m joking but I’m not (Michael Showalter Quotes)
In my perfect world order, it is cold all the time. Everyone wears sweaters and drinks coffee. People don’t speak to each other; they read the newspaper. There is no loud music, and cats are in charge (Michael Showalter Quotes)
I think narcissists are endlessly watchable. The way they view the world and the way they interact within the world (Michael Showalter Quotes)
I knew that if I was going to write a book, I was going to have to read one, too (Michael Showalter Quotes)
A lot of my humor centers on the act of telling jokes and I think this can prevent certain audiences from suspending their feeling of disbelief. It might piss a few people off, but I can’t help it (Michael Showalter Quotes)
