Much like music, comedy can be so technically good, that it's not funny. Some comedians who are known as "comedian's comedians" are actually doing comedy jazz. The audience might not get it, but the comedians backstage are rolling around laughing.
"I don't really think this comedian is funny."
"Well it's comedy jazz, it's a bit over your head. They're more of a comedian's comedian."
The style of comedy that 90 percent of American comedians, talk show hosts, and late night hosts think is humorous, characterized by every other joke being about Donald Trump. It's really played out, unoriginal, and not the slightest bit funny.
I haven't been able to watch Stephen Colbert since the election. It's nothing but Trump Comedy, so I watch Adult Swim instead.
A movie made and advertised as an action or disaster movie with more comedy dialogue than serious, making people wonder if it's supposed to be funny or if the script writers failed. Movies like these are usually critically panned but box office successes.
Deep Impact is a good example of a hidden comedy. It seems like a serious film about the end of the world and the survival of humanity, though quite a bit of dialogue sounds more like it came from a Mike Judge film.

The Divine Comedy is a british pop band from Ireland that is led by the only ever-present member, Neil Hannon. The Divine Comedy is also an epic poem from the 14th century that is about heaven and hell.
Usually Hannon hires an orchestra in his songs, and its sounds really awesome. Listen to 'Die A Virgin'.
The Divine Comedy had a song in the beginning of "Hitch-hikers Guide to the Galaxy" entitled "Thank You For The Fish".
