On a recent ‘cast you complained about the laugh tracks used on Big Bang Theory. Did you even bother checking if this was true? They don’t use one – see image:

Wow . . . what a racially and culturally diverse audience.
Sorry, not fair. I’m sure other shows show similar disparity in distribution versus the general population.
As a side, if one looks at the extras for Season 2 (the Gag Reel) it’s obvious it’s filmed live.
