  I haven't watched that in a long time. Was the laugh track always so obvious? Sentence. Ha ha guffaw ha ha! Sentence. Ha ha guffaw ha ha! Sentence. Ha ha guffaw ha ha! Sentence. Ha ha guffaw ha ha! It's like trying to watch the Mary Tyler Moore show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihLJrcS8lsg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihLJrcS8lsg

    It's filmed with an audience (which Colbert regularly speaks directly to). I don't think it's a laugh track.

      I swear they have a "laugh" sign behind the camera that said "audience" has been trained to follow.

        That's just a typical US TV audience, the crowd freaks out at the slightest thing. The people who make the shows are probably grateful for the padding, but it's grating for viewers who aren't used to it.

          Dunno if it is only US. I swear i have noticed this with British shows as well.
