The Bear billed itself and still does as a comedy and has won all its Emmys in that category. But to me, watching The Bear is as tense as watching The Pit, and that's not a casually chosen reference.
There's been this kind of minimizing of comedies in terms of their significance and their cinematic value, but we were all raised on comedies that felt incredibly cinematic.
I got in my suit with the helmet off stage and I pedled onto the stage in the car like knees to chest driving it and got out modeled my suit got back in and and tried to pedal but you know like it the floors were slick. So as I'm pedaling the tires are moving but the car isn't moving.
