TV programming has progressed immensely in the last decade. What used to be a majority of shows that merely entertained people when they were stuck in the house without anything better to do has now transformed into a billion-dollar industry that has people setting up viewing schedules, even to the point of cancelling appointments to be able to watch their shows. Even when technology has allowed for recording shows as they are aired.
Surely anyone who has ever been a fan of any TV show would delight at the idea of being able to visit the places and sets that literally set the stage for their favorite shows. Aside from an obligatory photo with The Hollywood Sign, if you’re a great big TV fan and have the time and capacity to visit the sets for your favorite shows, you might want to swing by these awesome Hollywood studios:
