    Authenticity.

    Shows with a laugh track are basically telling you that the writers producers think certain jokes are funny. And fuck that noise.

    Shows without a laugh track generally get laughs because an audience is having fun.

      Just because a show was “filmed in front of a live studio audience” that doesn’t meant it didn’t have a laugh track as well. Lots of shows filmed in front of a studio audience ALSO added tons of laugh track
