Default Filmed in front of a live audience?

If so, starting this thread in case there is a way to get tickets!!
It would be absolutely awesome to be a part of the first show!

I hope so too. I live in Cali as well and it'd be nice to go down for a showing.

I think it should be mandatory they start with only a couple dozen people like the original had the first season.

It'd be cool if they let all the TG nuts be the first audience.

Sorry if I'm wrong, but hasn't it already been stated that there won't be a live audience?
I think it would be dumb if they didn't, but I think I did read that on some website recently.

^ I could be completely confused or something, but I'll try to find it. Perhaps I'm thinking of a different show.

edit: Well I skimmed through a couple websites and didn't find anything about it, so I'm probably wrong, but if I learn anything I'll be sure to post it.

OT, but I remember my old man always being amused be the phrase "filmed in front of a live audience", as if there are some shows filmed in front a dead one.

He thought it should be "filmed live in front of an audience", and I have to say I agree with him.

Carry on.

I hope they film in front of a live audience. Jeremy's interaction with the audience can be hilarious sometimes and the reactions/responses of the audience can add to the show during segments like the cool wall.

Well that fucking weak! I was already starting to dig up websites with info on tickets to tv show pilots.

Erm, Top Gear is taped in advance too so that doesn't mean anything on it's own.

Hmm, now that I think of it, they may not do an audience. They may go for that 3-guys-in-a-garage feel. Then again they did say they were looking to duplicate Top Gear as it works so well...
