My mom put on a show earlier today, and while I didn’t look at it, I heard it. The first few seconds played, and I could instantly tell it was a sitcom. A little later, of course, the laughs started rolling. I’ve subconsciously analyzed sitcoms so much I can distinguish them now, basically instantly. Probably not that impressive because of the sitcom plague going on, but this is new to me so I was a little surprised.
