Always makes me think of that vid of big bang theory without laugh tracks... Big Bang Theory does overuse laugh tracks, but that video is also a bad example. Timing is also an important part of humor. When the people who made that video removed the laugh tracks, they didn't just remove the laughs, they removed time and put all the timing off. They didn't remove the time lol. By removing the laugh track it shows certain people who might not otherwise realize it how stilted and unnatural the comedy of that show really is. Same thing happens to any comedy that is paced with time for the laughter, not just bbt, wah wah etc --- Take me for what I am -- who I was meant to be. And if you give a damn, take me baby, or leave me. <cite>Clench281 posted [p:886608814] in How do you...
