George Bernard Shaw criticized 'The Importance of Being Earnest' for not having any real substance, believing it lacked deeper engagement with important themes. He felt that comedy should provoke thought as well as entertain. Shaw's emphasis on meaningful commentary reflected his differing approach to drama compared to Wilde.
