3. Sweet! I'd love to hear about your experience at the show.

I've been to sitcom tapings before, but I imagine this is a little different

7. Since the show is live.

once it's on, it is ON. I can only compare it to sitting at home watching only w/ steroid HD. One of the writers warms up the audience; theme music is cued; Bill walks out & starts his monologue. Their are no wings like a stage so the initial interview is standing on stage waiting for his cue to join Bill. Where I was sitting the main camera blocked my sight line of Sullivan But there was a huge flat screen I could watch as well as the overhead monitors. There was a brief scramble getting ready for the internet 'after show'. I haven't watch the program at home yet so I don't know if the happy 50th birthday acknowledgement to Rob Lowe was broadcast or not.

The show is broadcast from the 'Price is Right' stage @ CBS. I really enjoyed it. I had never been to any TV show production. Hope to go again. My cousin has been about a 15 times, so I hope he calls me again when he gets tickets.

4. Salman Rushdie is a dream guest

His grasp of English is pure Oxford and his sense of humor is outstanding. He's funnier than Maher is when he really gets going.

5. I was happy to see he was

a guest. I really enjoyed Seth McFarlane too.

It was a fun night.

6. Yesterday's panel was great.

Good topics and all of the guests were intelligent. It was nice not having some irritating conservative bomb thrower on. I really hate those guests (like Coulter). They make the show unwatcheable.

8. He would be insulted..

He's a Cambridge man actually...
