A 30 minute show can take 1 to 2 hours to tape. Go potty prior to getting in the studio, as once they start you cannot leave. You get to see the actors break up, so that's pretty funny. The cast will usually hang around and sign if you ask them to. It's very interesting to watch them work, so have a great time.
