How come in older tv shows, it's such a big chore to go answer the door? No one wants to answer it and wants someone else to

Times have changed, thanks to the pandemic. 😅

Exactly!

That's classic comedy-. The gathering around the knock sets up other jokes- It's from Vaudeville, and it's cheap to do.

Because we did not have over load of social media

In the old days, people were lazy about answering the door. When I lived at home, I answered any knocks. I live in a studio now with one door and my brother hollers at me if I don't ask who is it first. Old habits die hard and fast

I’m the opposite…I’m like “Nobody move!!! And be quiet…maybe he’ll just leave.”😂😂😂 That’s what happens when the majority of the visitors either want your money or wanna sell you something😂🤦🏻‍♂️ Although there haven’t been as many in the last 12 months.
