The humor spectrum puts the different types of humor and arranges them by way of how intelligent or sophisticated one has to be in order to understand the humor. It puts the likes of slapstick at one end of the spectrum (that most anyone can understand) and dramatic irony / dark humor (e.g. Cat's Cradle) at the other end.
