Re: Looking for 66 Batman at WB Studios

this was very cool, but the show rarely filmed at WB. The vast majority was at Fox Century City and in/around Culver City. A few rare sojourns to Fox Western Ave. in Hollywood.

Re: BREAKING: BURT WARD’s Hollywood Walk of Fame Ceremony Set for January

Regarding the Seinfeld sets - the reason the ceilings are so low in the photo you shared of "Jerry's apartment" is actually beacuse it's a recreation of those sets that Hulu produced as part of a fan-experience installation at Milk Studios in Hollywood - ironically Milk (a studio i've act...

Re: VIDEO: The future of The Culver Studios

You may be right about the standing sets staying at Culver. It's been a while since I've read the book and talked to the archivist.

Re: Fourth Season Myth
