Sitcoms without laugh tracks

[Designer]

I think some people find them amusing. Or at least entertaining. Speaks volumes about the typical viewer.

No matter what you say I'm still standing firm in my stance that BBT and most American comedies I've seen are not amusing

Would adding yakety sax help?

Couldn't hurt.

Are you kidding me? That big bang clip was hilarious, even without the audience laughing.
That show is amazing.

Laugh tracks are there to let the people that were born with no sense of humor when to fake it.

Just because she fakes it, does not mean I don't enjoy it. Huh? off topic chat

Wow, you must be easy to impress, lol. That minute-something clip was the most I've seen of the show, and it told me enough to know that I'm not missing anything.

Yeah but what does she think of it. Never know you might be the laugh track.

Um..I...I find the American version of The Office to be...um...a lot funnier than the British version (don't hit me). I think it's an exception though. Usually the USA butchers British comedy.

I don't know if these count as sitcoms per se, but I really enjoy Community, Modern Family, and Parks and Recreation.

Yeesh, shows how terrible the dialog/writing is.

But The Big Bang Theory is not a "laugh track" show...it is and always has been filmed in front of a live audience...which is where the laughs come from...the people in-studio...see the vanity card Chuck Lorre did, addressing this same idiotic allegation.

Is The Big Bang Theory shot in front of an audience? - Movies & TV Stack Exchange

Seems like the YouTube guy who makes a hobby out of removing the laughter in TV comedies might have gone off of his meds.

The point wasn't where the laughter came from it was that without it the show seems idiotic.

So? If you take any joke you've ever told in your life, videotaped it, and then cut out any laughs that followed, the viewer would assume your joke was a flop and that you were unfunny. "Oh there was an awkward pause after his joke but no laughing, what a moron."

That doesn't prove anything about how good the joke actually was.

Someone cue the laugh track.

Big Bang Theory doesn't use a laugh track. It's shot in front of a studio audience...
