Women in Comedy

We have recently seen exponential growth of women appearing in Comedy, TV, and Movies. This year alone, Amy Schumer, Ellen DeGeneres, Samantha Bee, Maya Rudolph, Leslie Jones, Tina Fey, Julia Louis Dreyfus, Melissa McCarthy, Kirten Wiigand and Amy Poehler starred in movies and TV shows with great success. Will this growth continue in Hollywood -- have the floodgates opened? And, are women of today funnier than in the past? Or is it just a matter of quantity of today vs. quality of the past?
