Plenty of great comedies have laugh tracks. Alan Partridge, The IT Crowd, Mr. Bean, Black Books, Only Fools & Horses, Blackadder, Red Dwarf, Fawlty Towers, Father Ted, to name a few.
After a couple decades of watching movies and shows without laugh tracks I tried to watch Blackadder and the IT Crowd and the audience laughter killed my enjoyment. They were funny, but not funny enough to get past the audience getting in the way of the humor.

The IT Crowd didn’t use canned laugh tracks, They recorded audio of audience responses.
