I never watched this when it was on TV, but I've seen a lot of clips on YouTube that are funny as hell. I don't get the hate for it.

I'm watching it on HBO or MAX.

I will say Sheldon grows on you. Once you understand what and who he is. They never actually say he's autistic but he is very high functioning autistic in the show with a mix of savant syndrome. Obviously its grandiose for tv though.

Just a typical turn ur mind off and veg out Chuck Lorre production.

I did a ctrl-f for 'laugh' and sure enough 10 years ago people were complaining about the laugh track... it's obnoxious.

I've never started Big Bang from the beginning, but just seeing random episodes it seemed like it was just okay.... I just reached the end of Young Sheldon and found that show to be quite a bit funnier, but will probably give BBT a shot one day.

I'm quite sure BBT was filmed in front of a live audience. There's one really funny scene in particular, where Penny gives Sheldon a napkin autographed by Leonard Nimoy, that you can hear somebody in the audience with an obnoxious laugh so loud that it was distracting. No way that was part of a laugh track.

As for Young Sheldon, the commercials for it annoyed me enough that I've never watched a minute of it. That kid is like fingernails on a chalkboard. Of course, I'm a cranky old fart who's never had any kids, so pretty much all kids are like fingernails on a chalkboard.

BBT is a great show. SMART people navigating life. Johnny Galikie's looks are amazing.

No one is without issues. Adding the girls added a better dimension. Raj should have tried harder with the redhead.

Once in a while shows bring in professional laughers. This may have been overboard.

Yes, it is a thing.

It was a funny show. I can't believe they'd bother with that. There was just no need.

They do use a live audience. But they also edit the laugh track by adding and removing noise to fit their needs. Which results in a very overused canned format that is insanely annoying once you notice it. Lots of sitcoms do the same thing, but this show just hammered it mercilessly. You start to notice the actors stopping dialog for no other reason than totally pointless laughter.

I guess I never really thought about it, but that does make sense. I've seen those scenes on YouTube and it's definitely kind of jarring to hear them without the laughter.

Maybe it's because I'm used to it, or conditioned by decades of laugh tracks, but it just doesn't really bother me. I've seen clips from M*A*S*H that don't have the canned laughter, and they just seen wrong. I'm also not really a fan of modern comedies that don't have it.

No laugh track.

Funny as hell.

MASH had some canned laughter, but never in the OR.
