Community, IT Crowd, Arrested Development, 30 Rock, Scrubs... The 00's had a lot of great sitcoms. We didn't know how good we had it.
My name is Earl
(Since you're including things that began barely in the 00's, I'm going to include things that ended in the 00's)
Friends
Frasier
Both riddled with laughing tracks. Neither is funny either.
Laugh tracks usually have nothing to do with how funny a show's writing actually is, but studies regularly show that people have a more positive experience with TV comedies when they have a laugh track. I assume it's probably something parasocial.
Community had less than half a season in the '00s, so calling it an '00s show sitcom seems a bit of a stretch.
Oh wow, in my head I pictured it starting around 2006 or so.
Probably because of that gas leak
Yeah it was easy for me, because I recall that I first watched it in 2013, and binging all 4 seasons that then existed in a pretty quick timeframe. So I knew it had to be pretty close one way or the other. It ended up extremely close to that "less than half of a season", with 12 out of 25 episodes of season 1 being in 2009.
