I didn’t remember it having canned laughter but only in certain scenes? (Usually involving the Barman, the purser and the doctor). Sometimes they seem to press the laughter button too early before the ‘funny’ line has been completely delivered.Quote:

Some channels now show MASH with the laugh track on and it doesn't work at all. Ruins it. They aren't too good at judging when it should come in either.

The BBC are re-running the 1990s Pride and Prejudice (the one with Colin Firth), which we're binge-watching over a couple of evenings while it's pissing down with rain. It stands the test of time well, although the writer/producer Andrew Davies was over-used on adaptations of classic novels, which got more and more OTT and anachronistic as time went on.
