If you are familiar with it - you can kind of tell the difference? Roseanne and the Connors were a studio audience, as are most of the family sitcoms. Cheers was in front of an audience. All the late night talk shows are, as is Saturday Night Live - that's taped in front of an audience. In the industry they are called single camera shows. I think it is single camera. And actors love it - because it is similar to theater - you have an audience and you have the people on stage. And a camera. Very few American situation comedies are filmed without an audience. Shifting Gears has one for example.

The documentary style ones do not have a studio audience - Abbot Elementary doesn't, The Office didn't.

Animation doesn't - such as The Simpsons.

Dramas are all filmed without an audience. Dramas tend to be multi-camera affairs.

The Bear isn't filmed with any audience and on location for the most part.
