While other books give you tips on how to write funny, this book offers a paradigm shift in understanding the mechanics and art of comedy, and the proven, practical tools that help writers translate that understanding into successful, commercial scripts. The Hidden Tools of Comedy unlocks the unique secrets and techniques of writing comedy. Kaplan deconstructs sequences in popular films and TV that work and dont work, and explains what tools were used (or should have been used).

This book is essential for anyone wanting to learn the nitty-gritty of comedy! The way it covers the serious aspects of being funny is both enlightening and entertaining. I’m glad I picked it up!

Not What I Expected at All
I was really disappointed with this book. It arrived with a dented cover and didn’t provide the insights I hoped for. Some sections felt rushed and not well thought out. Would not recommend.

Some Great Tips, But Tiring at Times
I enjoyed parts of 'The Hidden Tools of Comedy,' especially the sections on timing. However, some chapters felt a bit repetitive and dragged on. Still, it has helped me refine my routines, so it’s not all bad!

Interesting Concepts but Lacks Depth
I had high hopes for 'The Hidden Tools of Comedy,' but I found it didn't go as deep into the subject as I wanted. The ideas are there, but I wish there were more examples and exercises. It was still a decent read, though.
