Amy Poehler Criticizes Oscars for Undervaluing Comedy

Amy Poehler, known for her work in comedy, is upset with the Oscars.

She feels the award show doesn't give enough credit to comedic performances.

She believes comedy is hard and shouldn't be overlooked.

She discussed this on her podcast, Good Hang, with Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman.

Historically, comedy, alongside horror, hasn't been highly regarded by the Academy.

While some films with comedic elements get nominated, comedic performances often aren't recognized.
