For more information and rules, visit NBC's official show site. One thing you won't see there is the unwritten rule of thumb that you really need a scheduled appointment if you want to have any chance of advancing. For most of those standing in line for hours upon hours, you're just a face in the crowd. You may wow them. But most of the slots probably already will have been taken by professional comedians with agents and managers who got them around the line for a scheduled appointment. Talent scouts or no talent scouts. This is TV, remember. Don't let me stop you, though. Unless you're younger than 18. In which case, you're too young, anyhow. Them's the rules. Officially.
