There's your problem. Just keep the laugh track on and it stays funny.
Same deal with Friends and also a fair amount of standup.
If your jokes aren’t funny without putting fake forced laughter behind them then they shouldn’t be said.
That’s the entire premise of ‘Kevin can f**k himself’ essentially spitting in the face of these feckless sitcoms covering shit writing with laughtracks.
This show had a character that physically could not speak to women without being intoxicated. I think they eventually created a pharmaceutical drug to resolve this.
If I recall, they literally just dropped it one episode and acknowledged it with an "oh well."
He eventually got over it, but yeah it was forced and uncomfortable.
Friends I never understood. I didn't have a problem with most of it. It just... Sucked. It wasn't good. I had more of a problem with Seinfeld but accepted that it was superior.
I’d rethink any opinions you have of Jerry Seinfeld. He thinks the phrase “Free Palestine” is worse than the Holocaust.
Don't get me wrong, he sucks. But his show was better than friends.
Hard disagree. People still laughing cuz he wore a poofy shirt and it’s not even a cohesive joke. He just wore a shirt. Woopdeefuckindoo.
“Airline food. What is the deal with that?” Why are people laughing?
I’ve read 5 yr olds put together more cohesive story with crayons. Dude was just lazy.
Do you think Larry David is funny?
Not op but nope. Same with office as well.
There are just some people that enjoy watching others be uncomfortable and I think it’s correlated with having less empathy.
When I watched the office, I just felt bad for Michael.
A lot of those shows just focus on punching down.
