I was right. “Big Bang Theory” Is Not Funny. Here is a heart breaker / mind blower. Shows are taped in front of an audience. The audience is shown applause signs. The people oblige the studio and applaud regardless of what is in front of them.

The Big Bang Theory is a good example. I always thought the show premise was idiotic, and pointless. If you take out the applause sign motored laughter, this is what you get.
