Though I have a different opinion regarding the scope of dramas, I tend to agree with Irish on his view regarding comedies. They should at least try to be funny. If they are not funny(to me) then they are are not comedies(to me).
So then "comedy" is by your definition a positive criticism of a film; it is not a description. That means if you call something a comedy, it's automatically funny.
And so if it isn't funny, what is it?
To me, it's an ineffective comedy. But it's still a comedy.
