"情景喜剧成功的秘诀在于不幸的人。"
— Matthew Perry
Simplified Meaning:
TV shows that make us laugh, often called sitcoms, usually feature characters with a lot of problems and who aren't very happy. Just picture some of the most famous comedy shows where the characters are always having a tough time, like in "Friends" where Ross keeps getting divorced, or "The Office" where Michael Scott is constantly messing things up at work. These characters face difficulties, misunderstandings, and sometimes just pure bad luck. This makes them relatable because everyone has bad days, and we can laugh at their troubles since they tend to be exaggerated or presented in a funny way. When you laugh at their chaotic lives, it can make your own problems feel smaller for a bit. So, a great way to create a successful TV comedy is to show characters dealing with lots of frustration and mishaps.
