CBS Studio 33
Rob Searson
GSSN, it was obvious they were both taped in CBS studio 33. I saw the
telltale red-and-white curtains out in the audience in both shows, and I
recognized the audience seats and control booth from all the studio photos
folks have out on their webpages.
(An aside; they had a couple cool camera angles going into commercial on
Ray's FF.... I liked the shot from deep in the audience where you could see
the entire set including some of the stuff off in the wings and the ceiling
lights. Also enjoyed the other one where they had a camera up next to the
answer board just as it started spinning around.)
Obviously MG Productions has kept CBS studio 33 hopping over the years....
What are all the gameshows that were/are taped there? Were there any
non-Goodson games taped there?
I can come up with;
The Price is Right w/ Bob Barker
The nighttime Price is Right w/ Doug Davidson
Match Game 7x
Ray Combs FF
Bob Eubanks Card Sharks
I'm sure there's more.

He said "non-Goodson" games, RUBDUMB. Last I heard, NYSI doesn't
fit that criterion.
Anyway, to answer the question:

All of the sets can be broken down and wheeled out of the studio.

And for fun, let's throw in a couple of non-game shows:
The Carol Burnett Show
The TV sequences in That Thing You Do!
Did any other CBS variety shows from the 1970s tape there (Sonny & Cher, Tony
Orlando & Dawn, The Jacksons)?

I seem to remember Dick Clark and Denise Miller talking about Archie
Bunker's Place being taped in the same studio as Pyramid, so if that was
33 at the time, then ABP was there as well.

The Smothers Brothers were in 33. Before the '70s, Jack Benny and Burns and

before 31 and 33. It's strange to think that 33 was converted to color just
eight years before TPIR came along.
You may find this link of interest:

Of all the New York theaters that were converted to color, perhaps the Sullivan
theater is the only one still in use?

Elvis Presley made his television debut on Ed Sullivan, it was at Studio
33. When Sullivan would do his West Coast Specials, he used 33. Didn't
Dave Letterman use 33 when he went to LA? ALso Dennis MIller uses 33 on
Friday nights.
That's all I can think of for now.

years ago.

For the life of me, I still fail to see the fascination with 33.
The facilities there are comparable with the other soundstages at
Television City as well as those at ABC Television Center, NBC
Burbank, Tribune and Hollywood Center. Moreover, since nine save
for CBS 33 and NBC 1* and 3 have permanant seating, it's much
easier to include the audience as part of the set.
*WL is shot at studio 1 in Burbank, but Robinson has her back to
a flat which obscures part of the permanant seating -- the
audience you see sits in folding chairs at the opposite end of
the stage from the permanant seats.

Laugh-In, and Studio 5 was split between Entertainment Tonight ripoff "Access

Arsenio Hall's and Magic Johnson's shows)
By the way, Match Game '98 and Hollywood Squares tape at Studio 33 as well.

No, Letterman taped at the new TV City Annex on the same lot across Genesee
Ave. As for Miller, I'm pretty sure he tapes on another stage.
chris319

The built-in audience makes it fairly useless for a soap opera, but very useful
for game shows, talk shows, variety shows and some sitcoms which require a
studio audience. Other than that, there's nothing that makes it any more or less
useful to do a game show there.
Letterman used 36 when he was in L.A.

But in the earliest years of All in the Family, when the show aired on
Saturday Night, you first saw a blank screen while a voiceover announced:
"From Television City in Hollywood".
Then came picture and "Boy the way Glenn Miller played..."
Actually, I don't think TV City is in Hollywood anyway, but rather Los
Angeles proper. Think of the address on the ticket plugs. But then again,
Johnny Carson used to be "Frommmmmmm Hollywood", and that was taped in
Burbank.

To be perfectly accurate, Hollywood is part of the city of Los Angeles. And,
though the neighborhood is best known as the Fairfax District, I believe the
studio is just on the edge of what would be considered by city planners to be
Hollywood.

Both shows taped at TV City but used other studios.
For those of you wondering, the second season of 70s "Name That Tune" (the
first Tommy Oliver season) was taped at CBS.
