Viewers discuss whether Seinfeld should be released on DVD without the laugh track, with mixed opinions on whether the track enhances or detracts from the show.
When Seinfeld comes out on DVD, do you think its creators will be merciful enough to rid it of that awful laughtrack. It's the one thing I don't like about Seinfeld and it would be perfect w/o it. I haven't purchased any sitcoms on DVD, so I've not a clue. Thanks.

It'd be nice to have a choice. I bought a tape of Red Dwarf where the laugh track was removed. Was pretty good, but the laugh track doesn't bother me so much anyway.

I think it works. Mash no. Seinfeld yes.
Did Seinfeld have a laugh track for all 9 seasons??? It seems, maybe around season 5, they started to get that big sitcom audience applause when K (or others) would make their 1st appearance on the ep, then, it seemed to stop. I remember hearing it was stopped intentionally... Maestro

I would love it without the laugh track. But I think we'd notice that it was missing. A lot of times the actors pause to let the laugh track finish.

I hate canned laughter, but genuine studio-audience laughter is fine with me. I do agree with the original poster (10 years ago!) that an annoying laugh from one individual that cuts through the general laughter like a machete can ruin the episode for me. There's an obnoxious lady laughing in "The Slicer" as well; maybe it's the same person.
