I know where the laugh is supposed to be...it just ain't funny. I don't know why the audience is laughing that hard...I mean, other than they "have to".
I was much younger and and not terribly aware of what happens to sitcoms in later seasons. I think this was the first show that I had started watching that I got to see it from interesting new show...to really really good in first few years...to wait, why isn't it as funny as it once was? I tended to see this pattern repeat with so many shows...Frasier, Wings, It's Always Sunny, Big Bang Theory, Modern Family, The Office, etc etc.
Typical junk food filler show. Not the best meal you'll ever have...but hey...we have to eat SOMETHING.
