William Shakespeare, in Hamlet, uses humor in creating Polonius. He is comical as he tries to keep tabs on Laertes and Ophelia reminding us that fathers can not be trusted to watch over families.
Polonius arrives in the last moments before his son needs to leave for France and greets him by urging him to leave already, stressing the importance of Laertes' immediate departure.
This is then followed by Polonius ranting on and on, giving every piece of advice that pops into his head, and generally stalling his son until the latter cannot bear it anymore.
He gives himself and his opinions and advice greater importance than they merit in general, and he is anything but brief. All in all, he is a rambling old man.
In different productions he has been made more or less comical, but there are two main reasons why he tends to look foolish.
1. He has a longwinded style of speaking where he goes on and on without any apparent point. In his scene with Reynaldo he actually loses track of what he is saying. In Act 2 Scene 2 Gertrude in her pithy way tells him to stop blithering and get to the point: "More matter with less art". Gertrude here is being used as a foil to point up Polonius's amusing style of speech.
2. Hamlet spends a fair amount of time making a fool of him, and directors and audiences tend to want to accept Hamlet's view of anything. If Hamlet says Claudius is a drunk, he must be a drunk. If he says Polonius is a fool, he must be a fool.
Polonius says it, but he does so in a long-winded way.
In Hamlet, Reynaldo is obligated to follow the instructions given to him by Polonius because Polonius is his superior Polonius sent Reynaldo to Paris so he could spy on Laertes for him..
Peter jokes with the musicians in Act 4 Scene 5. The jokes were probably funny then, but seem pretty lame now. We know it was intended to be comic relief because in one early printing of the play, the actor's name Kempe (Will Kempe, the comedian) is inserted instead of the character's name Peter.
Hamlet mistakenly believes that it is Claudius who is hiding behind the arras instead of Polonius.
