I try not to think of TBBT, but just about any show with a laugh track isn't actually funny.
Did you know the British airing of MASH didn't have a laugh track cause the brits find it weird and it was forced on the writers by the executives. A laugh track was almost forced on The Simpsons as well.
Interesting, as IT Crowd is one of the very few British comedies I have ever seen, and it has a laugh track.
Different eras of tv I guess.
IT Crowd had a live audience. The laughter is real.
A laugh track on The Simpson would help me know when to laugh too.
