Well that certainly clears things up!

Sitcom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I am not sure what you are trying to prove with that link either KAB and i frankly don't want to put the other readers of the forum through anymore of this---whatever it is..

I have always enjoyed your posts and respected you but I see no point in arguisng over this.

I'm trying to say that not all 1/2 hour comedy shows are, or never have been "sit com"s which is a nomenclature that started in the late 60's. I consider sit-coms to be live audience, three camera productions that take place on one or limited sets, IE, Cosby Show, Three...men, Lucy, All in the Family....etc. HH and even better MASH (sans laugh track) was a single camera comedy, shot on multiple sets/locations. I used to be in the film (tv commercials) business, so I might have a biased opinion, but that's what I have. HH was NOT a sit-com. OK, I'm done.

Hmm. Based on that big bang theory isn't a sitcom. But I'd struggle to put it in any other category.

It is... shot multi-camera on soundstage.
