Excuse the nitpicks:

The first season of "Happy Days" and most of the second season were not filmed in front of an audience. Neither was the first season of "The Odd Couple", and neither was the last season of "All in the Family".

There are a bunch more that were done in front of an audience, since that was the format of choice during the 80s and 90s. During those decades, I'd say that the majority of sitcoms were done in front of an audience, and it's probably easier to list those that weren't.
