Definitely an editing mistake when they go over the next line a character says. There's a lot of them in Big Bang. But when done right, the actors pause for the live audience to laugh or for canned laughter to be added in post. Someone took an episode of Married with Children and took out the laughing and it completely changes the tone to hear Al, Peg, and their kids insult each other, stare for a few seconds, then insult each other again for like five minutes straight. You feel like you are about to witness a triple homicide and it is only a matter of who gets the gun first.
@@deplorabledegenerate2630 yeah, Big Bang Theory was almost all in front of a live studio audience. You can tell when they were not in the studio because they have better acting and comedic delivery lmao

"I've never been a fan of Steamed Hams" Crowd laughs nervously and a few grunts are heard from the back seats as people edge closer to hear the punchline. "Why not? Don't you like hamburgers?" The crowd suddenly stands up, aware that they are about to receive what they came for. People slowly edge closer to the set as Seymour prepares for his next line. Sweat is clearly visible on his brow and his mouth is quivering in anticipation as he readies himself for what is about to happen. "I just prefer steamed clams because, like the clam, I am solid and unmoving." The crowd suddenly surges forward as the words escape Seymour's mouth. They are so powerful, they almost shake the very foundations of the FOX studios. He watches as, in what he perceives as slow motion, the crowd moves toward his fragile body. He has been preparing for this moment his whole life. This is his moment. This is his Emmy. This is his Golden Globe. This is even his Oscar. The crowd converges around him so quickly they ignore the trampled cries of Chalmers and Agnes, who now lie shaking on the floor, their bones crushed by the sheer mass of the crowd. Seymour stares back at the eyes around him. What he sees are no longer people. What he sees is the human psyche stripped down to its core. Their lives, what they were before this moment has been forgotten. Ravenous. Hungry. They want one thing from him. Seymour closes his eyes, clears his mind and relaxes his body. What happens next depends completely on the next few seconds. The time between this and what he mutters next feels like an eternity. Slowly, he opens his eyes. He looks at Chalmers, then at Agnes, both lying lifeless on the floor. Without a second thought, he says with resounding conviction... "Aurora Borealis" In a split second, the crowd pounces on his ready and waiting body. Man, woman, child all at once. Seymour cries out in complete ecstasy as they consume his flesh. He stops suddenly, as he drifts into eternal slumber. Peace at last.
@@DanielSchmidt94521 It started as a show about nerds. The jokes were actually intelligent and, in many cases, required knowledge to be properly understood. But then, when the girls started showing up, it was turned into a run-of-the-mill sitcom about relationships and stuff, and the characters were much more "normal". A shame for us who liked the original premise.
@@ironcito1101 very true. Penny wasn’t a nerd. And Bonnie who had blond hair they threw on glasses to basically say she’s a nerd. The whole arranged marriage thing with Raj was old and outdated. And him ending up with an Indian woman was disappointing. Out of all the characters I didn’t like Amy. And. They really tried too hard with her. I don’t know why Sheldon couldn’t have just remained single or have been gay? And then you have Leonard and Penny jokes they got old real fast.
Recommended 6 years later cause I still watch Steamed Hams vids. ANYWAY. This is less BBT and more if Steamed Hams had laugh tracks only at specific punchlines. Sitcoms with live studio audiences/laugh tracks generally have moments of silence to give the audience a moment to laugh. In a classic Simpsons clip including Steamed hams I'm not joking when I say the video's length would more than double if you edited in a pause at every punchline (there were more than what was edited here). To make it like a BBT scene and not say Friends or Seinfeld, I don't know what you can edit except maybe an occasional Sheldon cameo or something.
If this was Big Bang, it would've been the audience "oooh" for drama every other instance. And one of them would've tried to jump in the other one's pants.
Only seen like 3 episodes of Big Bang Theory, and that was years ago, but the “laugh track every 5 seconds” thing is perfect for these sorts of edits in general. So beautifully obnoxious.
do people don't know that basically every sitcom does this and not only Big Bang Theory? it all started with seindfield and it has been like this since then
all this time, so many rewatches, so many poops and recuts, and I've only just now questioned why skinner didn't turn off his already-smoking oven before fetching the burgers
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand The Big Bang Theory. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Sheldon's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike The Big Bang Theory truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Sheldon's existencial catchphrase "Bazinga," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Chuck Lorre's genius unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a The Big Bang Theory tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.
So to clear something up, The Big Bang Theory does not actually have a laugh track. A laugh track is pre-recorded laughter that is inserted into the show during the editing process. The Big Bang Theory has a live studio audience, meaning it's shot in a theatre full of people who laugh at the jokes as they're being recorded. Now, that being said, I've been to tapings of similar shows, and they do have either a sign or the producer directing people when they're supposed to big laugh, small laugh, applaud, ooo, etc., and they do record a few bits of laughter to fill in gaps for when they cut the episode down to show length. I can also confirm that a lot of jokes are actually much funnier in person than on TV, just because of the actors' natural charisma and the energy of being part of a real audience. So I'm not saying BBT isn't disingenuous either. Just that it doesn't have a laugh track.
I know this video is made as a criticism of The Big Bang Theory, but I actually laughed in some of the moments when there were the fake laughs. Also, I kinda like the show, I don't think it is that bad
Actually the scene should be twice as long for the pauses the actors make when the laughing happens.
Occasionally, but alot of the time, the laugh track goes over the characters, which I noticed was a nice reference
Came to comments to say the same thing. The pause for laughter is a hallmark of these shows.
Definitely disappointed
