View Full Version : Laugh Poll Georgia's on my Mind 03-01-2002, 07:07 PM What is your opinion on The Audience Laughter in Sitcoms. Czas na Zywiec 03-01-2002, 07:15 PM Well, most of the time it doesn't bother me, but like in those shows where they don't even say something funny, and the laugh track goes off, then it can be a little annoying. I like it when its live though, then people don't laugh in unison and sometimes you can hear one person just bursting into laughter and that what makes you laugh, like on The Golden Girls, even though I think that they used a laugh track. Do you know if they filmed it live ever? Hollow 03-01-2002, 07:22 PM I dont matter to me LucyFan 03-01-2002, 08:04 PM It depends on what sitcom it is . . . Kay Scarpetta 03-01-2002, 08:46 PM Doesn't matter to me :) Especially on Designing Women... Julia just kind of looks at the audience. Hysterical. FOLrocks1 03-01-2002, 09:09 PM I LOVE the laughter, except for the laugh tracks!:lol: -*Forever*- 03-02-2002, 02:21 AM I love it on Three's Company cuz the ppl have the FUNNIEST laughs!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But on shows like... lemme just pick one.... Brady Bunch... it's ANNOYING! Mossopp 03-02-2002, 11:26 AM It depends on the show. If it's a show that's actually funny and I enjoy watching then the laughter track really doesn't bother me. However, if it's a show that's just not funny in the slightest and the fake laughter is going on all the time, that really gets on my wick!! But what bugs me the most is laughter tracks on cartoons - like 'Scooby-Doo' and 'The Flintstones'. It's a cartoon for God's sake - do they think we're that dumb that we're gonna believe there's a live studio audience there???

Of course then I usually don't watch the show. Sometimes it bothers me when the laugh track is "off". Sometimes the laughter is too loud or comes in a split second too early, and those times it really bothers me and is distracting. And I agree with Mossopp....laugh tracks on cartoons are totally lame....musta been a 70s thing... Lynn 03-10-2002, 04:24 AM I don't usually mind the laughter. What really bothers me is when a kid on the show says something cute and the audience goes "Awwwwww". That is so annoying! :rolleyes::rolleyes: lnpkrules09 03-10-2002, 10:49 AM Originally posted by goddess936 I dont matter to me Same here. ClassicComedyFan2 03-10-2002, 10:57 AM I love laugh tracks, recorded or live audience. I think its cool on cartoons as well. In fact, I wouldn't mind if some comedy movies had a live audience/laugh track. But, that's just me. :) |
