[QUOTE="Snarky Oracle!, post: 440674, member: 57984"] But the shows you mention aren't canned laughter tracks -- they're actual live audience response. In fact, the "sweeteners" brought in to add fake laughter to sitcoms often had to [B][I]delete[/I][/B] audience laughs from MARY TYLER MOORE and LAVERNE & SHIRLEY lest the episode ran too long. They had to do the same with the curtain rod moment in CAROL BURNETT's 1976 [I]'Went with The Wind'[/I] sketch (when the laughter went on for several minutes). [/QUOTE]
