Well, for TV, there's a reason some things are done with a live audience. To the extent that the remote audience has similar responses to the live audience, the live audience serves as a proxy for the remote audience.

Even the one-point-cheaper Appearance is now easier to use, since it works for things like film or even photography.

Which is why stars spend lots of money buying or maintaining Appearance, its very useful. Voice, likewise. Lots of what people think of as "charisma" in the real world is Appearance, Voice, or social skills in GURPS. Charisma in GURPS is narrower than in casual conversation.
