alt Hacker Newsi could do with the jokes and watching it passively as a timesink, but my genz brain just can't get used to the canned laughs and claps. doesn't even matter which show, it feels soooo weird to see actors freeze for 1-2 seconds after every joke, like non-stop, repeating 4th-wall breaks.
i think i get you. i feel like you guys grew up with netflix type shows. im millennial and also never got into sitcoms, i find it hard to turn off my brain lol.
i prefer the higher quality of modern shows that have richer narratives and are more immersive?
but sitcoms for me have a sentimental value. my dad would come home tired after work and my parents would watch everybody loves raymond, and before sleep me and my dad would watch fresh prince of bel air and cosby show.
big bang is the one of the last shows before my parents moved on to forming a youtube vlogs addiction.
