It's All in the Delivery: Pregnancy in American Film and Television Comedy
Victoria Sturtevant
Pregnancy and the politics surrounding it are serious matters, but humor has been a revealing and transformative means of engaging the subject. This book argues that representational breakthroughs were enabled by comedy’s capacity to violate restrictive norms, introducing candor, courage, and critique into popular notions of pregnancy on-screen.
