[QUOTE="ClassyCo, post: 440646, member: 7"] In older shows, it has never bothered me the use of a laugh track or a live studio audience. I can watch anything --- I LOVE LUCY, THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW, GILLIGAN'S ISLAND, MARY TYLER MOORE, LAVERNE & SHIRLEY, THE GOLDEN GIRLS, DESIGNING WOMEN, and so on --- and never be annoyed by the canned laughter or audience reaction. It adds to the atmosphere for me. Meanwhile, the newer shows that have laugh tracks and live audiences sometimes feel fake (yeah, I know it's TV) and corny. I guess the newest show that I actually like that used an audience was REBA, but even that show isn't particularly "new" when you think about it. Sure, there are others I had to have liked, but they're escaping me right now. I've never liked THE BIG BANG THEORY, so I've never even bothered with the spin-offs. [/QUOTE]
