Is it so you don't feel stupid laughing alone? Is it like a cue to laugh?

I think you are on the right "track" with your follow up questions. Here is what Wikipedia had to say:

It's all mental. Laughter spawns laughter. And the more you laugh, the better you'll think the show is. The better you think the show is, the more you'll watch it and tell your friends to watch it. The more people that watch it, the more advertisers will pay to place commericals during the show.

Alot of shows are taped before a studio audience and they just play the trac from that.

no, it's just that what the producers think is supposed to be funny, most people dont laugh, so they have a recording and plus, they dont have a live audiance. they are just *** holes. DUH!!
