And when the show's producers submit it as a comedy, the fact that it is so well-respected and carries such weight means that it tends to blow away shows that are just out here trying to make you laugh. Actual comedies like Hacks and Abbott Elementary, and that has all kinds of knock-on effects, right? Because we live in a world now where the lead actor in a comedy category is probably going to be Jeremy Allen White from The Bear competing against Martin Short.
