    US sitcom series - so fucking DUMB!

    serious ... i DO enjoy sitcom, but whats wrong with US series? i mean, i KNOW when to laugh, so WHY is there ALWAYS laughter from the off when smth funny happens/is said? really ... are US folks too dumb to know when its "time to laugh"? or is it annoying to you too? or, is it just like that: you need to be told

              I don't even hear the laughs anymore...seriously, when I see a good new sitcom, I have to think afterwards, if it was there or not. It only bothers me when its too loud, but that was only in the 90s.

                          Actually to me, if I just watch the show and don't pay attention to it, I'm ok, but if I take the time to notice it, it drives me nuts. It's like there's laughs after EVERYTHING they say, even if it's not remotely funny.

                                  100% of shows on TV feature laugh tracks now, its been used since Johnny Carson, he was against it, but was forced to start using it too.

                                  Laugh tracks cause people to laugh, its a sheep thing.

                                  And it works.

                                      Thats the funny thing...the real laugh is then removed and a fake one is added. I think I saw one show with "real" laughs, don't remember the name, but it was surely fresh.

                                                          a useless factoid:

                                                          hogan's heroes was the 1st show to get the green light due to a laff track. tests audiences who viewed the show without the laff track didn't get it.

                                                              Although I believe sit com and the fake laugh is originally a US genre, there hasn't been anything worse then local Euro (trash) "sit coms".

                                                              I guess you can't expect too much, but those are so bad they couldn't work even if tested in mental asylum, the least demanding monkeys in the zoo would shake heads in embarrassment.

                                                              I remember I used to be quite a fan of The Cosby show, I also remember Anthrax playing in "Al Bunda", some were not bad, and laugh won't harm if there's actually something funny.

                                                              Lately I kind of enjoyed "The Family" and that sitcom about the IT nerds, both British.
