I'm pretty sure they actually had a live audience. If I recall correctly, on the extras on the dvd's, they actually had to try and stop the amount of laughter that was going on on-set.
when you have to resort to racism to get a laugh you know it must be a pretty bad show
LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!
Pfft, the fact that you prefer spenny over kenny just proves once and for all that you have bad taste. spenny is a loser pure and simple, kenny rules

**** you Channel 9. Advertise the season return for Curb for Wednesday Night at 12, but decide to play an hour of Gilmore Girls instead.
Unfortunately for you (or fortunately, not sure how you people tick), it would appear that the general consensus in this thread is that CYE is a great show.
Now do the honourable thing and slit your wrists.
Season 7?
i doubt it. I don't think it's supposed to air in the states till september. It should be pretty, prettaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, pretty good.
Now THAT'S funny, getting you all riled up to see your show, only for them to show Gilmore Girls HAHAHAHAAHAHA champagne comedy. Well done channel 9
Lol. I forgot about this thread.
As soon as someone makes an "old chestnut" remark, they're reaching. Thank you for acknowledging such. And childish? Look at your last post. Pot, meet kettle.
No, it's just that people that make fun of themselves and/or their race don't take it to heart, and probably don't take themselves too seriously. Unlike yourself - clearly.
If you think that's the only way the show generates humour, you have no idea what you're talking about. It's just one of many examples.
Please provide actual quotes with analysis. Then provide an example of a Year 10 drama class' script, compare both, and conclude as to why the latter is "better".
It's not that at all. You really think after coming off a show which followed the traditional sitcom format, that he was "too lazy" to do the same again? Absolutely ridiculous.
Try and watch people actually having conversations in the real world. I'm sorry, but I know which follows that more accurately, and it's not heavily scripted dramas or comedies where it's just back and forth, back and forth.
You're living in a fantasy land if you think that's the case.
You're not providing any analysis whatsoever, you're merely continuing to state your opinion. You can say you think it's "amateur" all you like, and I can disagree, but until you prove otherwise, your argument is baseless.
I can link you to a dozen articles that praise the show's "final product", but again, that's just popular opinion. If you're trying to argue its artistic merit, then you'll have to go into a bit more depth than this.
Many shows now follow the single camera format, and CYE was one of the first comedy shows to do it. A lot of shows don't have a laugh track, anymore. Perhaps the first example of this was The Larry Sanders Show. But I suppose without the audience, and thus bad production values, that show wasn't good, either, right? Yet, it's also very critically acclaimed. But yeah, bad production, though.
If that, plus shooting on location, equals dodgy production, then I don't know what you want. Things are moving on from three cameras, an audience that laughs on cue, and set designs that need to be recreated and rebuilt over and over.
Where is this "good improv" that flows? Whose Line Is It Anyway?
Yeah, and I, like the majority of people here most likely, have seen every single episode, I'd say, at least ten times over. Maybe more.
And yet, you seem to notice things we haven't, yet. Hmm.
Fabrication? Lol, so now you're going to argue that you don't hate the show? Unbelievable.

Excellent - the four Seinfeld cast members will appear as their characters in five episodes in the next series.

Interesting to see how Larry gets out of this one. And I like how the Seinfeld reunion will be eventually tied in.
Worth the wait thus far, no doubt.

I doubt it, Ch 9 were just trying to promote the fact that CYE is coming to GO! and used the Seinfeld connection to promote it. They will be playing season 6 next month and (knowing how shonky the network is) most likely won't continue straight on with season 7
anyone watching the new season 7 now available on the interwebs??
"I think you blew him!"
Gold.
"I think you blew him!"
Gold.
Just pre-ordered the entire 7th season through Amazon for $25.99USD (given the aussie dollar thought it was a pretty, pretty, pretty good deal).
CAN. NOT. WAIT!

I lost my shit when he said that.
I haven't laughed that hard at a TV episode in a while. Was classic.

Wow the first couple episodes of the new season have been nothing short of brilliant.
