The thesis working title, "From Madwoman to Funny Women: Excess as Resistance in Comedy Produced by Women" aims to analyse excess in women’s comedy as a mode of feminist intervention and develop a deeper understanding of how humour acts as a form of female resistance and identification. The project aims at deciphering how personal markers of identity and experiences of women in relation to performance and production of humour evolve into a political stance or statement deflecting the dominant forces of social constructs. The thesis wants to explore these emergent and deviant ideologies represented through humour across TV series as a prominent genre, which highlight excessive women and their tryst with ambivalences in identity and perspectives. The thesis also attempts to encompass different kinds and functions of excess through humour using a global perspective hence broadening understanding of humour in a larger cultural context.
