1) Count the number of laughs that the show gets compared the the rounds of applause. Applause doesn't indicate comedy, but rather agreement with an OPINION. If I was still in college, I would do a media analysis of his shows to see how this trend has progressed.

I can only coherently disagree with this point in my sleepened state.
Applause isnt always an agreement thing.
Applause has moved its way into stand up comedy. When someone makes a joke that isnt all too funny; meaning not funny enough to laugh at, people clap. Watch stand up, there is lots of clapping.
I dont think the audience is agreeing with the racist joke George Lopez just said, either.
