Like many here I used to read Ken Levine’s blog and he decried the single cam sitcom in the days of The Office and Parks and Rec, harkening back to the days of multicam. Then I heard a Maron interview with the show runner of Fresh Off the Boat. She said she broke into TV writing for Nickelodeon and she said she hated what Multicam sitcoms turned into. The network was demanding a laugh every 30 seconds which meant the script was just setup-punchline with no chance for plot or character development.
