    Are there any comedy TV Series that didn't rely on laugh tracks for it's humor? I found laugh tracks are quite distracting because they simply overlaid the fact that the comedy are tragedy.

    Using laugh tracks just makes sense. Human social instincts make us laugh more whenever we hear laughter.

    Sounds like something a robot would say. Your profile pic concerns me.

    If you don't mind animation, F is for Family and Big Mouth are funny as Hell. Both are on Netflix.

    Harmonquest is really funny as well. It's Dan Harmon (creator of Community, Rick and Morty) and 3 friends playing D&D in front of a studio audience with a guest comedian every episode. They switch between the people themselves playing their characters and animation of said characters.

    I haven't watched the later season - started getting really bored - but the first three seasons are great. You should give it a shot if you have not seen t yet.
