 * Ok, two days have passed, with no response. I'll start the process.  J- stan  Talk Contribs 02:17, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Due to the lack of sources, I have concluded that it would be less controversial to redirect to Sugar substitute.  J- stan  Talk Contribs 02:29, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

Is this really the thing a person is most commonly looking for when they search this? 65.78.144.186 (talk) 08:45, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Source of Two and a Half Men and The Big Bang Theory using sweetening?
Current citation of the claim is dated 1994, and probably won't cover shows produced in 21st century... Also, this article says : Most producers claim to add no laughter to their shows. Chuck Lorre, the man behind Two and a Half Men, Mike and Molly, and The Big Bang Theory, is unequivocal: “I do not, and have never, sweetened my shows with fake laughs. I’ve always thought it was a pretty hateful and self-defeating practice.”--Qria (talk) 13:07, 8 September 2014 (UTC)
