Alan King: Inside the Comedy Mind is an interview program hosted and produced by comedian Alan King for the American cable channel Comedy Central.

Guests included George Carlin, Jerry Seinfeld, George Burns, Buddy Hackett, Dennis Miller, Mel Brooks and Joan Rivers. The series is regularly shown in the United Kingdom on Information TV, and its sister channel Showcase 2.
