I was in the audience for the Daily Show once as well as some standup comedy special by John Oliver for HBO (this was years before his current show). There were no laughter/applause signs, I assume because the shows were funny enough that they weren't necessary. I don't remember a formal "conduct briefing" per se but both shows had a warmup set by a comedian who was not in the main act. In the Daily Show, Jon Stewart came out after the first warmup set and joked around with the audience for about 10 minutes, and he established a couple inside jokes with the audience that he could come back to during the main show. The filming doesn't take much longer that the show itself, though in the case of the John Oliver special they filmed the whole thing twice, the second time had a slightly different roster of comedians but many of the same ones, who told the same jokes, which was a bit strange. Everyone still laughed at them the second time. There are no pee breaks, you really aren't supposed to get up at all, at least on those shows. The John Oliver one had cameras sweeping over the audience constantly but the Daily Show didn't film the audience at all. Both shows had nice seats.
