It explains why laugh tracks are so popular. The stupid demo's need to be told when to laugh.

Whereas with Community, your full attention is given, and there's still stuff you can miss (the first time I actually noticed Abed delivering that baby...whoa!)
It's just so hard to win when the best rated shows are somewhere between simpleton and pure idiocy. If they fixed the archaic Nielsen system, perhaps it would be better. The people with Nielsen boxes are probably all idiots. It's so easy to gauge these things using social media, but nooo.
