Headline: Amy Poehler slams Oscars for overlooking comedy
Caption: In the latest episode of her podcast Good Hang, the actress was joined by Oscar-winning actress Olivia Colman. During the interview, Poehler expressed her frustration at the Academy Awards for failing to recognise funny films. ”Every single year at the Oscars, everybody (in comedy) gets blanked and all the serious people get up and accept and accept. It's some hot bulls**t! Because comedy is not easy.” Poehler broached the subject after Benedict Cumberbatch called in during the episode. Cumberbatch joined the conversation to discuss his new comedy drama The Roses, which also stars Colman.
