The Nobel Peace Prize has become hopelessly politicized. I think it cheapens the prize itself.
Everybody says how hard comedy is, but, when it comes time to honor things, whether it's on a weekly critical basis or whether it's award time, at that time of the year, comedy is the poor, dumb child of dramatic work.
