Here’s the scary part…I’ve never seen THAT clip. I only saw 3 others without laugh track that were much worse than that one in terms of how much of an ass he was.
Holy shit, this is much better than the original!!! Damn, I should rewatch the series like this. Where can I find all of it without the laugh track?
Edit: I have to add, the long pauses make it a bit annoying. With the laugh track the pauses aren’t noticeable (to me at least; my girlfriend did notice the long pauses even with the laugh track, and it was annoying to her).
The pauses are there because it’s not a “laugh track”, it’s a live audience. That’s not to say it’s 100% genuine laughter, but they’re pausing so the laughter doesn’t bury the dialogue.
Timing and pacing are inherently different when there’s a laugh track. You can’t just silence the laughter or cut the time range. In some cases, you have to rework the joke.
You aren’t necessarily wrong. Have you ever seen Friends without a laugh track?
Friends without a laugh track is 1000% funnier.
Especially Ross…who becomes basically a serial killer vibe.
In The Big Bang Theory without the laugh track, Raj becomes just a huuuuuuge asshole.
To be fair, with or without a laugh track, TBBT is depressing as fuck. I feel incredibly sorry for the faith of most characters.
Oh man you weren’t kidding, at least drunk Raj becomes an unfunny asshole if nobody is laughing.
