1. Sitcoms

   A sitcom, a portmanteau of situation comedy, or situational comedy, is a genre of comedy centered on a fixed set of characters who mostly carry over from episode to episode. Sitcoms can be contrasted with sketch comedy, where a troupe may use new characters in each sketch, and stand-up comedy, where a comedian tells jokes and stories to an audience. Sitcoms originated in radio, but today are found mostly on television as one of its dominant narrative forms. A situation comedy television program may be recorded in front of a studio audience, depending on the program's production format. The effect of a live studio audience can be imitated or enhanced by the use of a laugh track. Critics disagree over the utility of the term "sitcom" in classifying shows that have come into existence since the turn of the century. Many contemporary American sitcoms use the single-camera setup and do not feature a laugh track, thus often resembling the dramedy shows of the 1980s and 1990s rather than the traditional sitcom.

   Jobs like this( ‘ The Kennedy’s - After Camelot ’) and writing … they are more interesting to me, he told us. I don't even know how many episodes of sitcoms I’ve done, but I’ve done a lot of them and this stuff is more interesting. The actor said he took on the role because it posed a challenge. I took this job because it scared me. I read the first four scripts and the portrayal scared me.

2. Robert Thompson:

   These investigative stories may not appeal to you at all in the first place. I think there is nothing wrong with the many, many people who just don't like that, like some people don't like sitcoms, I think there's nothing inherently wrong with someone who doesn't like' Tiger King.'.

3. Jennifer Talarico:

   There’s a reason sitcoms have laugh tracks. Seeing and hearing other people enjoy a thing leads us to enjoy that thing.
