Is it just me, or is the "staged" feel of family and couple humor starting to ruin the genre? I feel like I can predict exactly when the "reaction" or the "clumsy husband" moment is going to happen. Anyone else noticed that the irony hits way harder when it’s actually spontaneous real-life drama and not just a setup for the camera? What do you think—is there still room for authentic humor, or is it all just a performance now?
