The worst thing I can say about Jerry Seinfeld is that he appeals to the widest American audience.
Like the Big Bang Theory.
Wait, do Lemmites dislike TBBT, sometimes I forget this isn't reddit. It feels more active every day for me it has surpassed reddit. Didn't take long.
I'm technically not on lemmy but I will enthusiastically throw my vote behind the TBBT-is-shit cause
To be honest though it's still just a shit TV show. There are plenty of those around. It's not woth giving them much thought
I particularly don't find TBBT to be worse than the average show of its kind.
Yeah, it's a bit of a meme I just lean into.
Psst, I actually like it, but don't let anyone know.
I'd be arrested and kicked off lemmy.
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.
I'd have a lot less of an issue with TBBT if people I know didn't expect me to like it because I'm "a nerd" (I wear glasses and know how to use a computer). Also its just not very good.
