If any of you ever attended a live filming of a TV show,
you
know they have "Laugh" and "Applaud" signs.
They actually work. If you fake a laugh, you actually
start
laughing.
So bring it home. When a joke is told on a sitcom, flash:
"LAUGH YOU IGNORANT SWINE!" or some variation of that
on the screen.
I'm not kidding, if the lines were varied, somewhat
interesting and funny, I'd probably laugh. I do think it
would have to be insulting though or it wouldn't be
funny.
OK, the person walks in and you hear this...

Replace the entire TV show and in fact the TV set with a flashing sign. |

I can't watch any show with a laugh track. It irritates the hell
out of me. The tracts don't even sound like the way real
people do when they go haha. |
|
| |
The home sign might get on my nerves as well. I don't like
being told what to do...EVER. Maybe not a good idea for me. |

Ever watch the old Lucy show with Desi Arnez (the guy who
played Ricky Riccardo) laughing on every laugh track loop?
He had a very distinctive laugh and it was constant
throughout the show. |

Rather watch a flashing laugh sign on acid. Probably funnier. |

One comedian from the 80s pointed out: "Those people laughing in the laughtracks? They're all dead now..." |

| |
For [Bliss] the sign could say "KEEP A STRAIGHT FACE. NO GIGGLING" |
