Changes
A '''laugh track''' is pre-recorded laughter played in a repetitive manner to create the false illusion of other people laughing at jokes during a television show. It is designed to have a [[Pavlovian]] effect on viewers, particularly dimwitted ones.
Over time, a laugh track has a deadening effect on the intelligence of the real audience. [[Liberals]] rarely object to it, although it is not used in many sitcoms created by established liberals, including [[Tina Fey]] (''30 Rock''), Larry David (''Curb Your Enthusiasm''), [[atheist]] Ricky Gervais (''The Office''), Mitchell Hurwitz (''Arrested Development''), Greg Daniels and Michael Schur (''Parks and Recreation''), and Dennis Leary (''The Job'').
