Luigi Thirty posted:The objectively correct method? Once they took the laugh track out of the show it was 1000X better, but removing it from the earlier episodes hosed with the timing - there'd be scenes of jokes being cracked and none of the cast reacting because they're meant to be taking the situation seriously, but a gap was left in for the audience to laugh.... only there is no laughter, so all that follows is this weird and kinda painful silence before Hawkeye would continue on talking. That's how I feel when this guy Paul calls, he sits there and kind of robotically lists out the comedic things/situations going on in Chikara, allowing pauses for laughter/applause/reaction and more often than not it's just dead silence from Bryan and Mike because describing the situation alone doesn't really get across the fun that he is obviously getting out of initially seeing it.

Jim is great, and I'm always creeped out by Ed from San Antonio. Mike asking about the furry stuff was hilarious though.

Bryan told someone to send in a mailbag question and to put "Bryan you promised you'd read this" in the subject line He then immediately caught himself and was like AND NOBODY ELSE DO THAT OR YOU'RE BANISHED FOREVER

Vince basically thinks he's Cecil B. DeMille and runs WWE like a movie studio in the 1930s, so of course he doesn't understand that the rest of the world has moved on and won't put up with the poo poo that goes on in wrestling. I think a lot of WWE's current creative issues come from Vince using his company to fence himself off from reality.
