When I was a kid, my parents would watch All in the Family. One of the main things I remember about it was how much the opening impressed me.
See, it stated that "All in the Family is filmed before a live audience," and I thought that was amazing.
See, I understood that people had evolved millions of years ago, and so I couldn't figure out who was making the show if it had been filmed before there was a live audience. I mean, I figured that, okay, the writers and cameramen and stuff might be dinosaurs, but how did they get actors who looked like humans? And, for that matter, how did they know what humans would LOOK like?
Eventually, I figured that it had just been filmed before anyone had come up with the idea of a "live audience", and, back when they were filming All in the Family, they just packed the auditorium with corpses for some reason. I couldn't figure out WHY they would do that, but it made more sense than the "dinosaur" theory.
