Yesterday I went to a live taping of a show at Warner Brother's Studios in Burbank, CA. This is the 3rd live taping of a show I've been to and have tickets to watch Craig Ferguson later this month. The show I went to go see was called Mike & Molly. Never heard of this show before and never seen one episode but got invited by a friend to go with her. Show sucked as it's not my cup of tea but watching a tv show getting taped live is always fun and interesting especially when they mess-up a line but it's LONG as hell. They started at 6:30PM and finished around 9:45PM for ~22min of show time with tons of downtime. Definitely something everyone should experience as it's very interesting to see it live. Being in the audience you can definitely mess up a take as someone sneezed very loud in our audience and they had to cut and re-do the take.

I went to Red Green once. It didn't take them long to finish, since most stuff is done elsewhere.

I went to see The Hour with George Strombolopolis at CBC last year. Got to meet George. One of my college instructors was friends with him. Was definitely one of my best experiences. He had Shawn Ashmore on. I actually have a picture of me with Strombo.

I've also worked on live radio programs as an intern. Mind you it was news radio, and considerably less exciting than the Phil Hartman show made it seem. Well most days. :p
