It's 1000 times funnier than the Big Bang Theory if only because there's no laugh track.

Actually, the overuse of the laugh track is probably the only funny part of BBT.

Not that I'm defending BBT, but they're taped in front of a live audience, so it's not technically a laugh track.

[jrochkind1]

Plenty of shows taped in front of a live studio audience still sweeten it with a laugh track. But I have no idea if BBT does.

edit: wikipedia says yes. "Sweetening has been used in a number of television series, from older shows like Happy Days, Taxi, The Mary Tyler Moore Show, to newer sitcoms Two and a Half Men and The Big Bang Theory" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweetening

There must be a 'LAUGH' sign - because they are on cue even when the joke isn't remotely funny.
