  • Surreal humour, also called absurd humour or nonsense humour, is a form of humour—and constitutes the comedic genre of surreal comedy—based on violations of causal reasoning with events and behaviours that are logically incongruent. Constructions of surreal humour involve bizarre juxtapositions, irrational situations, and other displays and expressions of nonsense. The humour itself arises from these conditions causing a departure from what the audience expects, so that amusement is founded on creativity and unpredictability, separated from any usual logical analysis of the situation. Surreal comedy as a genre has roots in the nonconforming, nonsensical nature of the surrealist movement in the arts. Common elements of surreal comedy include the non-sequitur, in which one statement is followed by another with no logical progression and the placing of otherwise logical constructs in different contexts where they become ludicrous and bizarre.
  • El humor absurdo, también conocido como humor surrealista, es un tipo de humor que se vale de las situaciones disparatadas o incoherentes para generar la risa en el público, su comicidad se basa en la irracionalidad. Es un humor totalmente alejado de la realidad pero que a la vez nos sumerge en lo esencial de ella. Cabe destacar al grupo humorístico británico Monty Python, que actuó entre 1969 y 1983, como pioneros de esta corriente humorística, siendo una influencia clara para numerosos humoristas de todo el mundo. En España, destacan el dúo cómico Faemino y Cansado, muy populares en los 90 y que lograron llevar su propuesta humorística a la televisión pública. En la actualidad, cabría destacar el gran éxito de series como Muchachada Nui. De Argentina puede mencionarse a Alfredo Casero y Diego Capusotto con programas como Cha cha cha o Peter Capusotto y sus videos.
