What was the point where these stopped being normal?
Weird how old comedy stuff seems so much shitter now because it has a laughter track even though it was the norm back then.

you could hire yourself out as a live laugh track. Always funnier watching stuff with someone else who’s laughing
Just audible ^thises
You’d need one of those contagious laughs though, would be shit if it was Jimmy Carr or something with you
Usually an audience isn’t it? Not canned laughter and canned laughter is what I assume you mean by laughter track.

Canned or live I don’t give ashit
I don’t like it when people are critical of laughter in TV shows that are literally filmed in front of a laughing audience. I also think there is a real talent in dealing with that laughter in comedic performances.

If memory serves the League of Gentlemen dropped the laugh track for the third series. A load of people then complained it was too dark and stopped watching.

See when things that normally have a studio audience go outside but there’s still laughter? What’s going on there, just the video being played to a studio audience?
I like that Monty Python sketch about “now we’re on film” when they go to external shots and “now we’re on video” for internal stuff.
I like xylo too
