Chuck Lorre hates that he now has to use a laugh track on B Positive and his other CBS sitcoms

Entertainment Weekly

Lorre's comedies are the first multicamera sitcoms to shoot without studio audiences due to coronavirus protocols. So he's had to rely on laugh tracks. "I've never been fond of that," Lorre said about using laugh tracks to enhance the studio audience. "We never sweetened a show. If anything we very often would take laughs out because we couldn’t hear the dialogue. Adding a laugh to something that is not funny is self defeating. It doesn’t make it funny. It makes it annoying, if anything."
