‘Yes, and’ is about agreement. Agreement doesn’t necessarily mean you literally say the word yes all the time...In fact, you more often probably do say no. Agreement means I’m agreeing with the improviser, not that I’m agreeing with the character… Agreement is I’m agreeing to your premise.

Don’t just call something out as wrong. Give reasons for why. The comedy is in the details.
