it refers to an audience that heckles a performer, they occupy the cheapest seats and eat the cheapest snack - peanuts

The phrase originated with the Howdy Doody Show, which aired live on NBC from 1947 to 1960. The children who got tickets to sit in the ground-level audience (the best seats) were called the Peanut Gallery. They had the honor of answering Buffalo Bob's question, "What time is it?" by screaming, "It's Howdy Doody time!"
