    The show doesn't have a laugh track and honestly, a lot of viewers seem to need a signal to tell them when they should be laughing. AD is an intelligent show. It just is. A lot of jokes are in-jokes, clever puns, and it'll go over a lot of people's head especially since there isn't a laugh track to help people along. It is a harder show to get into than most but it has a cult following. I think the show is brilliant though, and those in-jokes are ten times funnier than anything else on television. I love it when they take jabs at Fox and their lackluster support of the show. The show can be deliciously snarky sometimes.

    Edit: I haven't watched tonight's episode yet, but from what I gather, they did a parody on the fact that Medium and Will & Grace had live and 3-D shows earlier this year. I don't think it was actually live, and they were just poking fun at some of the ratings grabbing stunts other TV shows have pulled.
