Adult comedy is a genre of humor that targets an audience of older teens and adults, often featuring themes and content that are not suitable for children. This type of comedy frequently includes explicit language, sexual innuendos, and mature situations, aiming to provoke laughter through relatable yet risqué scenarios. Common formats for adult comedy include stand-up routines, television shows, and films. Notable examples include The Hangover, South Park, and the works of comedians like Dave Chappelle and Amy Schumer. These productions often explore social issues, relationships, and personal experiences, using humor to address complex topics.
