Friends - No Laugh Track 1 (Ross Invited Them All to Watch)
Рет қаралды 3,106,073
11 жыл бұрынAfter the mixed reviews I got for spouting my opinions on The Big Bang Theory being unfunny when the laugh track was taken out (or left in for that matter), I was challenged by some people to do the same thing to Friends and see if the show still held up. I'm probably biased, but I still think it's funny, so you guys be the judge! Is Friends still funny with the laugh track taken out? Stay tuned for plenty more clips from this show as well, as I have about 20 scenes written down I'd like to take the laugh track out of.
(Blah blah copyright, don't sue me please. You know the drill.)

Honestly prefer this. The pauses are slightly too long, but at times that also makes it feel more real. "Tennis is more believable" actually made me chuckle, because the pause made total sense.

yeah this actually made me laugh a couple of times, but the pauses for the laugh track were fucking weird. Certainly wouldn't have had me laughing as often as the laugh track would have suggested, the audience laughs like a pack of sycophantic hyenas on nitrous.

@@tafferchuck1349 I dont care if I’m laughing at a show and I miss another joke. I would much rather have that than pauses like this. That just gives the show replay value. You can come back a year later, watch the same show, and pick up jokes you missed on your first watch through. And the more jokes there are, the more replay value it has because it gives you more to re-watch.
@tafferchuck1349 3 жыл бұрын
@@PtylerBeats YOU are talking about yourself. Friends wasn't meant for your generation. If I recall friends started around 1993. It clearly didn't intend to be groundbreaking, nor was it expected to be such a hit. However it followed the same format fraiser or Seinfeld had. Because the format was meant for a generation much older than you and I. Laughing at it would be like laughing at VCR. "So stoopid, it didn't even had touch screens" meanwhile it's the precursor of many stuff you watch everyday.
