Eugene Levy delivered a perfect Emmys joke about The Bear being nominated as a comedy

Comedians and father-son duo Eugene and Dan Levy (Schitt’s Creek) took to the stage to host the 76th Emmy Awards on Sunday evening, celebrating the very best in television from 2023.

One of the expected big winners of the evening is The Bear, the hit series on FX that was nominated for a record-breaking 23 comedy awards.

There’s some debate, however, whether the Jeremy Allen White restaurant epic is truly a comedy, something Eugene Levy touched on that during his monologue in the most perfect and hilarious way.

“I know some of you might be expecting us to make a joke about whether The Bear is really a comedy,” Levy said dryly. “But in the true spirit of The Bear we will not be making any jokes.”
