Naked To The World…Studio 33, CBS Television City

After all these years of seeing Red Skelton, Jack Benny, Carol Burnett, The Smothers Brothers, ‘The Match Game’, The Price Is Right’ and probably a thousand more shows on this stage, it’s nice to see it in it’s natural state. It always looks so intimate on television but this shot gives a different perspective on it’s size. The studio is 66′ x 110′ and seats 300.

    Tom Hanks used Studio 33 in “That Thing you do.” It was called the City of Broadcasting and is where the Oneders (Wonders) performed on national TV. They brought out the Norelco’s and made it look accurate for the period.

    I saw a taping of the Price is Right there about 10 years ago …a truly unbelievable studio!

    See here for a floor plan of 33: http://www.cbstelevisioncity.com/stages# In the upstage left corner you can see the special cyc that was added for The Price Is Right.
