Sitcom Do's and Don'ts
 
Alright, let's say we're an official NPF Sitcom, what would be some important Do and Do Nots to apply to it to make it funny and successful?

I guess that would be a lot like "The Big Bang Theory" but with 10x the cast size and more "gamey"

So, dont's:

1- No guest stars
2- No canned laughter

that's already being off to a good start

canned laughter?

1. No stereotypical stupid male figure that loves sports. Instead, lets give him a REAL job and make him an intelligent human being, or very sarcastic... You can choose...

A what?!

You must visit TVtropes.

Canned laughter = A laughtrack that plays whenever you're supposed to be laughing. Unless I'm wrong.

Translated sitcoms here in Brazil tend to have a laughtrack even when the original one didn't. Seriously.

Oh yeah I would agree, no canned laughter...

I always thought that the Flintstones used a laugh track ironically, becuase, who would belive that the cartoon was filmed before a live studio audience?

I see The NPF Show being somewhere along the lines of Scrubs with lots of crazy vivid day dreaming.

Quote:

Aesop (also spelled Ęsop, from the Greek Αἴσωπος—Aisōpos) (620-560 BC), known only for the genre of fables ascribed to him, was by tradition a slave (δούλος) who was a contemporary of Croesus and Peisistratus in the mid-sixth century BC in ancient Greece.
So, only anciet gay slaves. Got it!
