That does prrrecious little to assuage my carefully cultivated, angry irascibility(but thank you for trying ). Wouldn't "This is a recording" work as well?

Often, they would also tell you that the show was filmed before a studio audience.

I can live with that - but when they say "filmed before a 'live' audience" I just get irascibler and irascibler (I know, it's sad ). And they are sooo fkng flippant and unthinking that they even made that announcement at the beginning of a recording of a Greatful Dead concert - IT WAS A DEAD AUDIENCE!

And, Larry King makes me irascible also. "Larry King Live", HA! I can't count the number of prerecorded episodes of "Larry King Live" that I suffered through!

I think that when Larry King dies, his tombstone should bear the inscription "Larry King Dead".

This was so that you didn't think there were voices in your head laughing at the show.

Uh...ohhhh...geez, that's a relief for my concerns. Thanks Cash!
