Laugh ... now!
By Todd Stadler · Tuesday, May 28, 2002 11:59pm
Not too long ago, I found myself once again drawn by the proverbial siren song that is Television Preview, the event wherein you watch crappy television and in all likelihood are tested for your response to commercials.
I have always enjoyed the lousiest of television programming because it rates so well on my patented Entertainment Scale.
The Entertainment Scale works like this: imagine an infinitely long axis, stretching from negative infinity to positive infinity. Shows fall along the scale based on their quality (cable access is close to negative infinity, the Simpsons are close to positive infinity), but their entertainment is determined by the absolute value of their position. Thus, cable access and the Simpsons are highly entertaining, although they vary greatly in quality. Most sitcoms, on the other hand, are neither bad nor good enough to make them bearable.
As it is difficult to find television that ranks high on the Entertainment Scale, I have traditionally sought out more lowbrow stuff. Thus did I find myself eager to attend the Television Preview evening a few weeks back.
The last time I attended such an evening, there was crappy TV in abundance. Indeed, I saw a show that I would later characterize as "the worst thing I ever saw on TV, hands down". Which, you can imagine, was highly entertaining. What new treats would this second evening of consumer rating offer?
It turns out that it would hold nothing new. It was the same stupid program, consisting of the aforementioned stinker Soulmates and the disinterment of Valerie Harper that is City.
So why did I stay and watch these shows after I found out that they were the same ones I had previously watched? Because I'm a scientist, dangit! And also because I have a perverse sense of fun.
I managed to keep myself entertained while watching psycho-stupido-action-drama Soulmates by making all sorts of snide comments to my friends (who, it should be noted, had not previously attended this program, but desperately wanted to after hearing my description of it). It's what all the kids are doing these days.
However, the sitcom City didn't lend itself to such cynical entertainment, and I was thus forced to try something different.
I vowed to laugh along with the laugh track of said sitcom, both in frequency and amplitude. That is, I tried to match the canned audience guffaw for guffaw and chortle for chortle.
I will say right now it was not an easy task. Indeed, I grew rather tired of the activity within the first five minutes of the show, simply because the laugh track fired off every other line.
My brain found it particularly difficult to laugh so frequently when it clearly wasn't warranted. The only thing that kept me going was realizing the absurdity of my chuckling, which itself was far funnier than most things the show's writers had come up with.
I mean, when was the last time you heard anyone laughing as heartily as a show's laugh track? [Huh ... never really] Don't you think there's something wrong with that? [Yeah, that is wrong!]
Why do we tolerate crappy TV simply because a clearly biased fake audience is enjoying it? [Hey, good question! Maybe TV isn't so great!]
And how is it that we find nothing unusual in entertainment that tells us how and when to react? At least the most maudlin of movies abstracts its emotional manipulation into a really obvious music score. But imagine going to a movie where there are crying and gasping sounds being piped in at crucial moments. Wouldn't that annoy you? [Yeah, it would! Most American entertainment is awful!]
[Let's go do something more productive with our lives than watch television!]

"Exactly why I always liked the show M*A*S*H. Has anyone else noticed that sometimes someone would crack a joke on that show without having canned laughter to promt the audience to notice the humor in what was just said? Which is a good thing with Alan Alda on the cast, as otherwise the giggles and chuckles would be continuous."

"Check this out:
http://www.jumptheshark.com/
"Jumping the shark" refers to the single moment where it becomes clear that a TV show has worn out its welcome or exhausted it creativity. The term refers to an episode of Happy Days where the Fonz water-skied over a pool of sharks.
Anyway, there's a section called "Stump the shark" in which people send end questions about old TV shows. Look at the archive- it's an amazing gallery of awful television. "

"I was pointed to that web page a while back. I was annoyed by its lack of authority - with the hoi polloi allowed to determine for themselves when a show jumped the shark, the concept was diluted.
Still, I was reminded of the concept of shark-jumping when I caught a part of the sweeps-week craptacular that was the Cosby Show reunion (minus cutie-pie Lisa Bonet, who either had too much pride to take part or is still in hot water with Cos for Angel Heart). The Cosby Show undoubtedly jumped the shark with the addition of moppet Raven Simone.
But reading over the Stump the Shark archives, I was forced to consider many old shows that had always seemed like my personal secrets: The Mighty Heroes, Mr. Merlin (starring that guy from Tron), Doctor Doctor (starring that guy from Max Headroom), Double Trouble, and My Two Dads (starring all manner of folk).
Shows I still have never found anyone to talk about with since they aired include Pandamonium, Filthy Rich, It's a Living (oh, Ann Jillian!), Blue Thunder (starring a pre-SNL Dana Carvey who inspired me to name my bike after his attack helicopter), and what I consider to be the most improbable TV show of all time, Benji, Zax, and the Alien Prince, which was filmed near my hometown of Dallas.
I just thought I'd share that."

" Well i just think lil- raven on the cosby show was so cute.i still watch the re-runs of it. I doo this so i can see that face she makes.I would of liked to see that close up in person.
If i meet raven 2day i would say i don't know what i would say 2 her.I probly would say uhhhh.. um.....well....
I would frezze if i acually goto talk to her.
What would you do if you got to meet Raven Symone?
I just want to know how many people would stutter when they meet her.
----------------------------------------
Going off topic for a minuet
----------------------------------------
If i meet Eddy I would faint because as a movie star he's hot very hot.
Back on topic
----------------------------------------
If i met Raven like i was saying I would stutter 4 so long she would walk a way.
I would also like to get a piture with Raven.
to be respectful i think Miss symone has a crush on Eddy. Like a big time crush. But the one thing i like about Raven is she likes to help out with the parks and the commuity.
I would like very much to do what raven does for the commuity.
Well i got to say what I wanted to say aboot her at this moment........"

Turn off your sets, cancel your internet service (your contributions are really, really disturbing),and go back to school.
Sorry, Todd Stadler, for the rant. And thank you for applying yourself to the burdensome task of watching really bad TeeVee so that others might not have to. You know, the only sitcom I can watch these days is "Arrested Development" simply because it doesn't shoot rounds of canned laughter at my feet.
By the way, your cartoons (and attendant disclaimers) really crack me up. Thanks."

It is my dream to meet you, You and I both like to shop. I love to sing and so do you. My good friend is Chelsey just like your's. I think you are beautiful, I'm not sure if you're bi-racial but I a'm. My mom calls me her little Halle Barry.
Love Charissa "
