Return of the Critic...
Opinions of all kind -
"... that could be dangerous. Try refraining from ..." to
"... do you know what you're doing?"
and more. But I guess I'm beginning to give my thoughts a shape, a form - an identity soon.
I'm not sure if I've ever been truthful to myself before, but this once I am! I guess I'm getting far too many accusations about how I'm changed these days.
Am I? Have I? Are there reasons behind it? Far too many questions, and my head goes blank within seconds of self-interrogation.
Hence, I'll start to shape them out - here. I'm surely going to need your help to understand what the average human thinks! So, keep me posted with your comments/queries/ suggestions.
Thanks.

To laugh or not to?!!
I am pretty sure sitcoms like 'Friends' and 'How I met your Mother' are pretty popular shows, and they're getting very popular in India as well. But I do not know how many actually have wondered what it is that makes these very popular!!!
Very recently, it hit us hard (my Bro & I) that sitcoms like 'Friends' often make the best use of the virtual audience in the episodes... When I mean 'virtual audience', the studio audience is what I mean, who give us the "Background Laughter" during the episodes.
Just how many of you have actually wondered what effect it has on you, a viewer??! Loads... The difference, you can make out, when you watch "SCRUBS". It has no virtual audience, and if you actually observe carefully, you'll find that even if it is very funny, you really won't have a huge laugh about it. And our ears are more trained to the virtual laughter, that it responds better to it, than an actual joke!! Man.. Am I really moved by the levels they get to in order to get their ways.
I'd say that could be the case with most people, and they have actually excelled in creating a niche market through psychological manipulations, which are not definitely obvious!
Next time, please do make sure to check out if this is true with you as well. If so, then I think I'd love to have your comments, so we could delve more into this...
