Hi all, I find Amy Schumer to be one of the more interesting comedians working right now, and her show is quite good as satire. She probably isn't ready for the Mark Twain Prize, but Hal is right, ratings are central to that enterprise. And wouldn't have Sam Clemens (who was real) been very interested in the ratings of enterprises related to Mark Twain (who wasn't real)? Speaking of which, the Mark Twain Prize TV Extravaganza for this year airs tomorrow. I don't remember any discussion of Eddie Murphy being awarded the prize, but I am intrigued to watch. http://www.pbs.org/mark-twain-prize/home/ Best, Tracy On Sun, Nov 22, 2015 at 2:15 PM, Hal <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > She will probably be awarded the Mark Twain Prize any year now, > ironically..= > .
