[–] HornedMeatBeast@lemmy.world 52 points 1 year ago (5 children) I saw some clips on YT where they removed the laugh track. It's really hard to find the show funny when they take out the bit where it tells you when to laugh. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 10 child comments replies: [–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 36 points 1 year ago I hate laugh tracks. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Kraven_the_Hunter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 1 year ago (1 child) I watched and enjoyed TBBT, but I don't rewatch it. I saw one of these videos with the laugh track removed and was honestly surprised at how awkward the show was without it. It didn't change the fact that I liked it when I watched it though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 27 points 1 year ago (1 child) It's mostly awkward because suddenly you have long times of silence normally occupied by the laugh track. If it was intended to be without a laugh track there wouldn't be awkward silence. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dalekcaan@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago (1 child) Yeah, I've wondered what it'd be like if someone did one of those laugh track removal experiments, but re-edited to remove the quiet parts permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago This is kinda off topic, but there's a show called Kevin Can Fuck Himself that plays around with sitcom tropes, wife and I enjoyed it a lot. permalink fedilink source parent [–] simplejack@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago Fun fact. That show was filmed in front of a studio audience. Although I don’t know if they augmented the audience with canned laughter in post. permalink fedilink source parent [–] AWittyUsername@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago Same with Friends and most shows with laugh tracks permalink fedilink source parent [–] rugburn@lemmynsfw.com 1 point 1 year ago I've seen that.
