The thing that I keep noticing every time I re-watch these clips (which is often) is the laugh track - by rights, it should ruin the whole thing. Every rubbish sitcom from the 60s through to the 00s had canned laughter and it sounded terrible, so surely it should sound terrible on Partridge too...? AND YET! Somehow it actually ADDS to the hilariousness of it all! I can't explain how or why, but it just does. It's almost the magic ingredient that raises IAP (or the first series at least) to the heights of perfection that it undoubtedly does reach. Fantastic.
@peteandurnot4 жыл бұрын
It does add, maybe for the fact that its not canned, its genuine laughter at a much loved (as in we love to hate him and we love him for that lol) character and his total ineptitude and lack of communication skills.
@WallKenshiro4 жыл бұрын
Looking at it now, all these years later, when canned laughter in a series like this is practically non existent, it kinda adds to the absurdity of it. Making it even more hilarious. Especially when the show is still blatantly ahead of it's time. It's almost seems deliberately meta.

2:40 - the joke about evolution - revolution - evolve - revolve is interesting. Revolution originally had one meaning only - turn around an axis. It was only after publication of Copernicus's "On the Revolutions of the Heavenly Spheres" (1543) that it gradually took on its second meaning of important change (perhaps forceful).
