Ever wonder what it was like to sit in the studio audience of one of your favorite sitcoms? We would pay big money to go back in time and watch a taping of an episode of I Love Lucy. 

Luckily, we can save our money for the time being. A video recently posted to YouTube showcases what it was like to sit in the studio audience watching Lucy, Ricky, Ethel and Fred work their magic.

The video appears to be a promotion for the classic sitcom. It starts with the audience filing into the Desilu Playhouse to watch the action take place. The camera pans around to showcase the large studio and focus on the camera operators setting up for the show. 

"Now this is television," one man exclaims. Why yes, sir, yes it is.
