I want to know what it's like being in the audience of a live tv show. How do you get tickets? Is there a conduct briefing before filming starts (i.e. "Those of you in this section don't make faces because you're in view of the camera. Pee breaks every 20 minutes and you can't leave before then. If you got kids you have to sit in this section.")? Are there still laughter and applause signs? How long does filming actually take? I noticed the live audience on Top Gear all stands up. Do they get to sit down, or do you have to stand up for the duration? On shows where some of it's prefilmed (SNL, Daily Show, etc), does the whole audience watch that segment for 3 minutes while the host just stands there straightening their tie? What shows have you been on and what's it like?

Thanks everyone, this is exactly what I have been wondering about. It fascinates me.Crabby Abby posted:I was in the audience for the filming of the first TopGear US pilot back in 2008. We stood for the entire time and by the end my feet were killing me. I can't recall exactly, but I'd say the whole thing took 4 or 5 hours. That's exactly what I imagine when I watch it, and I kept telling myself, "No way in hell they do that, surely there's a bunch of chairs in the next room over." Sounds unpleasant.
