Binged 'Friends' again and it didn't click like before

I used to think 'Friends' was the perfect show to binge, but on a rewatch, the humor feels stuck in the 90s. The laugh track is too loud when you're watching episode after episode, and it broke the flow for me.

I switched to The Office after my last Friends rewatch. The mockumentary style has no laugh track, so it flows better for binging. It just fits how I watch TV now.

But what if the laugh track helps you relax? It sets a steady rhythm so you don't have to think, just laugh when prompted. That comfort is perfect for rewatching a favorite show.

Laugh tracks can get old fast when you're watching a lot at once. The Office just feels more natural without that constant cue.
