Jake in Progress: A Sitcom or drama? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Isn't this show supposed to be a drama? I don't see how it's a sitcom at all. Love it though. The first episode with John without a shirt on woo!

I would say it qualifies as a sitcom. So far, it hasn't had enough serious moments to qualify as a drama.

Where's the auidence?

I can't believe there is no laugh track on this show. It's like a drama turned into a sitcom.

A lot of sitcoms are going this route anymore.

laugh tracks are overrated, most of the funniest shows of the past decade didn't require a studio audience to tell me when to laugh

I'd say it's more of a sitcom, too. As far as the laugh track, I'm glad we don't have one with this show.
