Not a good look showing a commercial for that book on a day that TCM fired one of the authors.

My other problem is if you are going to ignore human nature in a comedy, and you absolutely can in comedies, then you need a fantasy setting: Fredonia in Duck Soup is the only reason we accept the absurdity.

In it posits the 2nd-richest man in America will accept a homeless man in his mansion, take orders from him, be bossed by him. The script works hard to make the excuse that he puts up with it to save his family, but no person that rich would EVER do that.

"He hunted quail while he was drunk." Apparently her father was a member of the Ale and Quail Club....
