An accomplished actress, Tatiana Maslany is well-known for her roles in television shows like "Orphan Black." She commended Amy Poehler and Tina Fey, two significant female comedians, in one interview. The way society perceives female comedians has changed significantly as a result of these comedians.

Consider a stage where male performers were customarily given the spotlight. Because audiences expected them to conform to certain stereotypes, it was frequently difficult for women who wished to be perceived as serious actors or comedians. But by defying conventional notions of what a woman in comedy should be like, Poehler and Fey upended this status quo.

Maslany praises their efforts because these women have succeeded in producing humor-focused content rather than gender-focused content. They made it apparent that an actress or comedian's gender shouldn't overshadow their abilities. Because of this, audiences are now more receptive and accepting of a variety of comedic voices, regardless of gender, and the presence of women in comedy has become more normalized.

They also refused to be used as mere props to be the subject of jokes or to shine alongside male comedians. Rather, Poehler and Fey developed their own stories and characters that are self-contained. Not only in comedy, but in many other fields where women are frequently marginalized or relegated to supporting roles, this has been inspirational.

They have cleared the way for upcoming generations of female comedians who aren't constrained by the standards of earlier times thanks to their hard work and achievements. Maslany is grateful that their efforts have made it simpler for viewers to enjoy comedy without obsessing over gender.
