response to cue the fake laughter

Laugh track: a hacks tool  

                A hack is a person or persons that produce poor quality products just to make money, usually in the film industry.  Some notable hacks are Adam Sandler, Rob Schneider, and Kevin James. 

                Laugh tracks are used whenever a comedy show is not funny and the writers, producers, and actors are too big of hacks to fix it.  As you said the laugh track is only there to bring a not funny scene to kind of funny but there is a less obvious reason they do this.  It all comes down to economics.  It is easier and cheaper to write something that is either only slightly or not at all funny than what is actually funny.  Since they can force humor that will make them the same amount of money as ligament humor, there are no incentives for these hacks to invest time and money into good writing. They are scamming the world in a legal scam, which people are willingly buying into because they don’t realize that they are being focused to laugh.  Laugh track are used by a talentless hack.

                I have never been a fan of any form of in comedy expression that tries to tell me when to laugh, it cheapens the comedy.  Live audience is better than laugh track because it forces the show to be funny but still it seems that if a show is funny enough for a live audience to laugh than it is redundant to have them.  The silent movies are great examples how of comedy does not need sound to make people laugh.  A good comedy relies on the humor and clever jokes.
