Been watching a little bit of the IT Crowd

I hate the shakey camera work of shows like the office much more.

Plus The Office isn't funny.

I like how this guy thinks.

The Hurt Locker shouldn't have won BP for the overuse of shaky cam alone, not just because it was a sub-par movie wrapped around a great performance.

Laugh track? never noticed it. some of you guys are just too sensitive or let little insignificant things bug you.

This too. Seriously, did a laugh track take anything away from shows like Seinfeld and Cheers? Give me a fucking break, it's high-time NBC finally started using them in shows once more, maybe I'll even start watching again if they did because shows with the dry, non-laughtrack humor do less than nothing for me.

That's kind of the point, if the show was better I wouldn't notice the laugh track. I have seen every Seinfeld episode at least twice, probably more, but never even really realized it had a laugh track. It's noticeable in the IT Crowd because the show is not very good.

That and the fact that volume is jacked up on it and it is done several times as much. Compare:

Personally I never really noticed the laugh track in the IT Crowd, but I can be kinda oblivious to such things when I'm watching a movie/tv show.
