The hilarious Ana Fabrega and Julio Torres take a serious approach to comedy, a philosophy echoed in their advice for other writers and performers: do what you like, and only what you like. \u201cCreatively, if it\u2019s not fun, stop doing it,\u201d says Julio. \u201cYou should be enjoying what you\u2019re doing at all times,\u201d agrees Ana.\n\nThe two comedians are the co-creators and stars, along with Fred Armisen, of HBO\u2019s \u201cLos Espookys,\u201d the Spanish-language comedy following a group of friends who launch a business specializing in supernatural horror services. Ana starred on and wrote for \u201cThe Chris Gethard Show\u201d and is featured on \u201cAt Home With Amy Sedaris,\u201d while Julio served as a writer on \u201cSaturday Night Live\u201d and last year released the HBO special \u201cMy Favorite Shapes.\u201d This episode is brought to you by HBO.\n\nTo hear more about \u201cLos Espookys,\u201d check out Julio\u2019s interview with costume designer Muriel Parra on Backstage\u2019s The Slate: https://bit.ly/3gEfWnd\n---\nBackstage has been the #1 resource for actors and talent-seekers for 60 years.
