Who's brilliant idea was it to fly a drone in and out of the fireworks? Totally ruined it. That's all I heard folks talking about. Pathetic. Not to mention a safety hazard. All I can say is we didn't get what we paid for and we won't make that same mistake again. Boooooooo to CBS and the chamber. read more

Nice studios...of course!. Really impressed how smoothly everything went with checking in so many people for shows.

You guys are crazy talking about Danny, I haven't seen not one of you guys in the audience teeth whiter than his..

The new season of The Talk is better than ever. I am loving the new set and the changes in the format of the show. The ladies of The Talk seem to be more revealing of themselves this season and they still play off each other beautifully. Bill the warm up guy is still the best in the business. I want to thank Danny, and his staff, Elliot, Zane, Ethan, David, Tawny and Stacy for always being pleasant and accommodating. You are the BEST! There is a change in the dress code. It is now upscale, business attire. Don't panic, just put on nice outfit of any color, some makeup, and jewelry and you are good to go. Also, cell phones are allowed to be in use up until the time you enter the studio, thank you for that perk. Just follow the instructions they e-mail you and you will have an awesome good time. And of course they still give away awesome gifts from time to time. YEA! read more

What was once a fun day has become a boring snooze fest. My friend and I loved going to The Talk. That was then, this is now. One boring C list celebrity after another. Their audience prizes are a joke compared to other talk shows. The worst one we received was a coupon for a frozen dinner. Where it was once very hard to get tickets, now the staff calls and sends email asking (begging) for audience members. read more

4th of July celebration, awww first and last time , $20 ?? I am still trying understanding what for , food very expensive, great fire works ,, well ONLY if you are lucky to find an spot ,, very poorly organized for the actual viewing of the fire works ,,( unless you pay another $20 to go to the VIP roof top ) only then you'll be able to see them ,,,,,,,, money wouldn't be a problem at all ( since is to help a good cause ) is that ,they make sound like it's the best festival , and is nothing like it ... I wont tell that we waited over 35' completely stopped at the parking lot at 3rd floor trying to exit ,, again very poorly organized ... Imagine hundreds of car running ,parked , and not moving for over 35' ,inside the structured parking ,,not air to breathe ...... Last forget about doing picnic ,,,unless you want it do it over a hot street cement ,, you"ll save $$ on the food ,,but if you want a beer or glass of wine ,can't bring yours ,, go to stands wait another 30 or more minutes ,pay $7 and you can have it ..... Yes , i am very disappointed,, sorry read more

I love this studio. show "THE TALK" WAS AMAZING EXPERIENCE FOR ME .It was awesome feel just seating in the audience and watching this show alive .Plus you walk away home after show with prices .isn't it cool? OMG beautiful feel!!Being just few steps aways from celebrities is so great ! read more

So my aunt came across these tickets to watch "the Talk" and invited me to join them. I was excited to visit the studio and check out the talk show. The moment we get there I noticed the traffic to get inside the parking structure. We got there in time and were escorted to our parking spot by a parking attendant, and were given instructions to meet with the rest of the audience in the garage area. So far so good, everything was moving quickly and well organized. Once it was our time to get checked in, my aunt forgot one little detail regarding our visit. One of the party whom I replaced was unable to make it to the taping. Because my aunt failed to give that information to the people who are in charge with the seating, they did not let me in. They gave us 2 options which both did not guarantee that id get a seat. They didn't even cut us some slack {its not like we were trying to bring in an extra person}. We were a party of 4, and my name wasn't on the list. So because we didn't want to separate and going home wasn't an option, we stood as stand by and waited for everyone to get seated. Eventually they broke the news that there wasn't any seats left {shocker} and they'd give us tickets to another show in March, blah, blah, blah,. I was not happy. 3 stars go for not the actual experience, but because the studio looked pretty neat and the employees were all perky and what not. I don't see myself going back there again, but at least I can say I tried. read more

We attended the taping of Last Man Standing staring Tim Allen December 11, 2018. The show taping was scheduled to begin at 6:00 p.m. They allowed us to enter the parking garage at 3:45 . We went through the security line, checked in with Audience Unlimited personnel and we were given a number. About 5:00 p.m. they lined us up in number order and walked us over to the studio. There is a golf cart available if you can't make the walk. We were seated and the show began promptly at 6:00 p.m. The entire cast was introduced and Tim Allen took the microphone and thanked us for coming. The taping was enjoyable and moved along quickly. About half way through we were served a slice of pizza and a bottle of water. The Audience Unlimited personnel were very cordial and helpful. The taping was finished at about 8:15 p.m. I would highly recommend attending this show at CBS Studio Center. read more

Went to an event hosted here this weekend. Awesome location for a large gathering!! Definitely recommend for fun party events.

Really enjoyed the fireworks display - thanks!!!

I had a lot of fun watching Who's Line Is It, Anyway? Try to sneak in some snacks and a drink. I saw some people do it, but I didn't because I thought they didn't let you. They do NOT let you in with your phones, so just leave it in your car or you'll be sent back out. A lot of people were leaving the line to take all the phones from their group back to the car. One girl in front of me was able to sneak hers in, somehow. Oh, and it was (easy) street parking. Fun night, but takes a little prep. read more

This place is huge! It helps to know where you are going before-hand and get there early incase there is a large casting and the parking structures are full! read more

I thoroughly enjoyed the show and fun atmosphere that the staff create for the audience. I will be planning another visit to the show in the near future. read more

I have been on a variety of lots in the LA area and most of them are cold, impersonal, and make me nervously search for my cool card at the front gate. On the opposite side of the spectrum is Radford, a cozy little lot near TJ's that you probably never even knew was there. I worked at this lot for about a year and was fortunate enough to be ensconced in a bungalow on My Three Sons Ave (which the locals call "Park Street"). Most of the lot is quite scenic and if you get the opportunity to cruise around on a golf cart and see where much of the programs you know and love were filmed, do grab it. While most lots give me the uncomfortable vibe that a scene from Swimming With Sharks could be playing out anywhere at that very moment, most peeps on this lot are relaxed and congenial. BTL dudes tool around on beach cruisers and greet you by name. If you're a VUP (Very Unimportant Person), you will be parking in the free-for-all that is the top of the monolithic parking structure, but if you take the time to get to know the security peeps, they may be able to help you out with a better spot if you ask nicely. Also fortunate about my location was that I was just a couple of buildings down from the commissary. My major gripe about the commissary is that they never change their menu and one gets quite sick of the same food every day, but at least you could plan your calendar around it. I recall that Wednesday breakfast was Huevos Rancheros and Thursday lunch was Veggie Enchilladas, and no one had better get in the path of the food to my face on those days. The breakfast burritos were magnificent, the salad bar was great value (though my explanation to the chefs that raw cubed tofu is unappetizing and needs some marination or other pre-prep fell on deaf ears), and everything was quite inexpensive. If I came in at breakfast, often the chefs would let me choose the veggie soup of the day. The staff was very nice, particularly Jaime, who would flirt with the girls and draw little pictures on their takeout containers, sometimes on the inside so you would have a little surprise. Just be sure he knows if the food you are picking up is for your boss, as some tend to find it disconcerting to open their cowboy burger and see flowers and rainbows waiting for them inside. read more

Awesome. I love the lot here. This is what used to be called "The Mary Tyler Moore Studio". Some great history here.

The CBS Staff/Crew/Security/Everybody are superb. I always enjoy being on their Stages and Sets. Every time I touch bases with them, I have a memorable experience that I wouldn't ever trade the world for. read more

Came here to see THE TALK in late June of 2011- my experience was fine. Loved the free parking garage on the lot for the audience. While on our way to the studio I spotted the ET anchor/ reporter black bald guy... forgot his name. Sharon Osbourne, and the lady from King of Queens came out to the audience to say hello after they were done filming. Overall, it was a great experience. read more

This place is really nice and I enjoy a lot of shows here from celebrity name game to Americas got talent to a number of sitcoms on mainstream Tv. Though they produce the best shows on tv their staff is incredibly rude. Treat you like animals. If you want to have a good time make sure you bring your own portable toilet and snacks because they don't let you move once you're in. read more

Went to "The Talk" taping on yesterday (7/31/14) & it was the season's final taping. All of the staff that I came in contact with, including parking lot security, the greeters, individuals that checked me in, staff in the audience room & studio, even the camera men were friendly & engaging, but the show's hosts Sharon Osbourne, Aisha Tyler, Sara Gilbert, & Julie Chin were distant & not personable at all! During breaks, Aisha was yawning, when the camera wasn't on Sharon, she was checking her jewelry & looking at her nails, Julie was into all the staff catering to her, & well Sara looked like she wasn't even there! The only one that showed any interest & interacted with the audience & the runner was Sheryl Underwood. She was wonderful & quite entertaining compared to the others. I wasn't expecting them to come down & have conversations with us, but at least they could have looked at us & say hi when the cameras weren't on them. Also you could hardly hear Julie's voice when she would speak, so although the runner wanted us to be excited, how could we when we couldn't hardly hear. Would not recommend going to anybody at all.

We went to the live taping of the talk today, It was a no make up show. We had to wait in an extremely hot room for about 45 - 60 min. We had to walk in the blistering heat and humidity a very long way, with no water or anything available. Then we stood outside in the heat for an additional 30 minutes before entering the actual studio. If that's not enough once finally inside, we were not able to even hear what the host were saying and we were in the 2nd row! What a waste of our time! read more

The Talk has been my favorite daytime talk show. I have appreciated their discussions, and, unlike another women's talk show, they are respectful to each other and do not interrupt. However, as an audience member on Wednesday, March 5, I was quite disappointed and felt totally disrespected by the ladies. There was a segment of the show that had been prerecorded, so there was about 12-15 minutes where the audience sat there waiting. This was disappointing because we drove quite a distance to see an entire show, but understanding show biz, we were ok with it. However, while this waiting period by the audience took place, the ladies, except for Sharon, sat back on the couch with their heads down as if we weren't even there, texting on their cell phones. It was rude and inconsiderate of their audience - their fans. We have attended various other shows such as Queen Latifah and Craig Ferguson. These celebrities interact with the audience during commercials/breaks, and they make the audience feel appreciated and welcome. Not so with The Talk. Please note: Sharon Osbourne was very nice. I sat in the second row, and we made eye contact. She gave me a nice smile!!!! Thank you Sharon! read more

OMG Just got home from The Talk 2016 Halloween Show taping. We were required to dress up (I spent $60 on my costume). They required us to be at the studio no later than 1:30 p.m. We were in the studio for 8 hours!!! The show was good, but we all felt a bit used. We were only given "emergency" potty breaks throughout the 8 hrs of taping. We were given water, one banana and one granola bar. No big deal with the food as we were allowed to bring our own snacks as well. BUT, seriously, everyone DRESS up BIG TIME to help the show have a successful taping, we were there for 8 hrs. (10 1/2 hr day with driving) and NO GIVEAWAY at all!!! Boo to the producer who must think The Talk has arrived and no longer needs to give their guests a token of appreciation. Good luck finding people to participate next year as on the bus ride back the the parking garage everyone said, NO Way will they not only never come to the Halloween taping again, but some (me included) are completely done attending the show. Big mistake The Talk! BTW, Sheryl was the only one who actually thanked the audience for being there so long and helping support the show in this special taping that took so so so long. read more

Okay so myself, my mom and my 2 aunts drove to Studio City for our first THE TALK live taping. I don't even know where to begin! As we were waiting to park in the parking structure of the studio, a staff member by the name of Danny was so RUDE when he saw our confirmation to THE TALK and told us we needed to read and follow directions because we aren't allowed to park here. When we tried to ask him a question about handicap parking he gave us the hand and said he couldn't help us and we needed to read our confirmation. Frustrated we dropped the 2 handicapped passengers off and went to find the parking for THE TALK a half a mile away and we ran back to the gate because apparently the bus to take us to the studio had just left and it would take 20 minutes to get back according to the staff member at the pick up location. He advised us to walk if we wanted to make it on time. Needless to say we ran because we didn't want to be late. My aunt was calling us saying Danny the RUDE staff member said if we arrive 1 minute after we won't get in. So we get there in time and we wait in line as they check you out up and down to make sure you are dressed according to their dress code. I understand they have a dress code and everyone is informed of the do's and don'ts BUT there is no need to be RUDE about it or belittle people. So you can't wear black or white above the waist and my aunt was not wearing either color but her patterned blouse was a mixture of purples and the lavender was too light so they classified that as white which means she had to sit separate but still gets to go into the studio. That's fine but when we got inside the studio it made no sense since the camera never showed our section anyway!! If you go on a double taping make sure to take a lunch. We could tell who had been there before because they packed lunch. THE TALK provided a banana, granola bar and water in between tapings which was a nice gesture. The hosts were cold and did not interact or even look at the audience except for Sheryl and Sharon. During commercials Sheryl interacted with us and the staff member who entertains us and gave us ques on our duties as an audience and Sharon at the end of the day thanked the audience. The only reason I gave this show 2 stars is for the gifts that I received but I won't be going back. read more

I was at the taping on 11/3/2014. They do validate parking. The wait was about 30 minutes to get cleared and go through security. Once that was done they give you a number and they ask to take a picture of you with your number. Then you go to a waiting room and wait for an hour if not more. I suggest you bring a sweater since that room is cold. Then a shuttle bus takes you to the studios. You line up in numerical order and walk about a mile to the actual studio. Once at the studio you are seated. The hosts are not engaging at all. They are there just for their paycheck. They do not make the most minimal effort to acknowledge the audience. Big disappointment. Not going back. read more

I must say WOW!!!!! So much fun in the audience.!!!! I was invited by a friend and decided to go. We had so much fun! The atmosphere was upbeat and energetic. Here's the best part.... Fortunatly, I work. So i am not able to watch day time T.V. With that said, I had no idea who the hosts were, nor did I have any clue about the show. I honestly came in with a blind eye. Then to find out that Sharon O. Is one of the hosts!! I LOVE HER!!! Oh wait is that Darlene??? Holly WOW! I still watch Rosanne on late night and it still makes me laugh! (Child hood stars do grow up and become adults!) P.S. I agree with several of her opinions on topics in the show. then Aisha Tyler..... I know I've heard the name...on several occasions........hmmmmmmm?? OH WAIT She's on one of my favorite shows GhostWhisper!!! Dang I watch her almost every day too!!!! WOW I had just sat down in the audience and was already excited!!! OK, NOT GONNA LIE, Didnt know Sheryl or Julie, but I have learned (since Ive only been introduced to this show a few weeks ago) that Sherly is HILARIOUS!!!!!! I now know she a comic ( i love stand up!) She makes me laugh!!! Funny Funny Funny!!~! Thanks Sheyl! And Julie so pleasant and happy.....and has the best gifts for the audience!!!!!!!!! NICE! THUMPS UP JULIE!!! I now DVR this show becasue I enjoy these ladies and their converstaion!!!!! P.S. Sarah or Aisha, Don't worry! I'm not givin up my Rosanne or GhostWhisper! Thanks Ladies for the great experiance! read more

Went to the live audience taping of "the talk" this morning, if it wasn't for the awesome live performance by Stevie Nix the show/talk would have been boooooring, I went expecting to see one of my Favs - Holly Robinson Peete along with Sharon Osborne and I was soooooooo disappointed to find out that Holly has been replaced!!!! But I was there so, I went in with an open mind....well, I loved the set, the round table was okay but if not for Sharon, it would have flopped! The interview with Stevie Nix was (lost for words) it just didn't flow, a few jokes thrown in by Cheryl Underwood and the beaming personality of Sharon O salvaged the otherwise boring - typical - less than ordinary interview. If the show is going to survive they have got to do better !! At the end if the taping Sharon stated she would be gone for three weeks! So, after the show I immediately went online to see what the heck is happening here-- well, I don't like what I'm reading but we shall see what the ratings hold.... read more

Wanted to see The Talk with my friend. We received email letting us know that the dress code had changed. I asked what the dress code before was just wanted to get an idea they wrote back "like I said in previous email I will send it when we get the updated one". RUDE TO SAY THE LEAST. Then a 3 page "rules and regulations" list comes. OMG! With all the rules you'd think your going to the White House! Dress: Upscale Business Chic... I'm retired those words are not in my vocabulary let alone in my closet. We are told park 1/4 mile down the street however parking is NOT guaranteed. Substantial standing in line and no going to bathroom while standing in line. Also the bus is not affiliated with the show so it may or not be there so walk. It was sad to read that the host's of the show do not acknowledge the audience with a thank you for coming. After rereading the rules we declined because we think CBS/the production staff are rude and SNOBS. I was so fed up with questions from them. They do not care that we are driving from over 50 miles one-way. The privilege is NOT ours...the privilege is theirs to have us there but they've seemed to forgotten that. I stopped watching the show too. I do agree that Sheryl is the best one on the show! read more

LAME, LAME, LAME and LAME! Complete waste of a day, took work off to attend this = LAME. There was no guest to interview, they plopped a previous taping of "How I Met Your Mother" in for us to re-do the laugh track = LAME!!! Then some random chef came on and we didn't even get swag...the least they could have done was give us a cookbook. SUPER LAME!!! Don't waste your time. read more

My two sisters and I attended a taping of The Talk on 11/11/15. The parking was great, nice to ride a shuttle to the studio. The waiting time was not bad, it was fun to take the pictures in the picture booth. But......Danny the one that seats the guests was so RUDE!! We were # 27, 28 and 29 in line, so we thought we would get pretty decent seats. He put us up in the balcony. When we questioned him about having to sit in the balcony, he told us it was his job to put the most enthusiastic guests in the front. As we were walking toward the balcony he actually yelled at us "ATTITUDE DOES NOT WORK HERE!" I truly have never been yelled at by someone like that before, I cannot believe he is even employed by the The Talk. Rude. Rude. Rude. When we sat down, we thought we actually did have pretty good seats......until the show started, cameras blocked our view, we had to pretty much watch the monitors to see anything. Sheryl Underwood is the nicest of the all of the women, she talks to the audience during the commercial breaks. None of the others even look up from their phones during the breaks. Antonio Banderas was scheduled to be there, but they had actually taped him a few days before, so we just watched on screen. Not the best experience. Maybe we were just there on an off day! read more

Went there for 4th if July. $20pp was such a waste if money. Food was disgusting and, if course, overpriced. Kids fun zone is so dirty. Basically, there was nothing to do. We came at 6pm and my daughter begged to leave. At 6:45 we left. We didn't get refund. read more

Ok had the dryest experience of going to "The Talk Show" @ CBS. Get ready to walk a mile for the bathroom, then a country mile to the studio!!!. Then you can't even hear the ladies when they're talking topic. The monitors sucked!!! We Thank Cheryl Underwood for keeping us entertained. You could hear her without a mic..She was very funny & approachable while Everyone else on panel seemed aloof & to self absorbed to wave to the audience. in other words its a Boring show!!! Will nor be returning.. enjoyed Underwood tho.. read more

My sisters and I attended a taping on 11/11/2015. Boy...were we disappointed. The featured guest wasn't there, the seating was "bad." And the person that seated us was VERY rude. Needless to say, I won't go back. I can spend my time doing something much more memorable and be treated with respect as a guest. read more

Julie Chen is a phony. Did not acknowledge the audience at all. No thank you. No handshake. No appreciation of fans. Also, the show is stale, scripted, and not organic. AWFUL EXPERIENCE. LOST A FAN. read more

Who is The Talk kidding with their new dress code? Business chic, think nice dinner or fancy brunch...Are they forgetting who their viewing audience is? Are they forgetting how the audience voted "Best Audience" was dressed? That's right, last year's dress code. It comes across as nothing more than pretentious. The day I was there this week, it didn't escape my attention that I didn't notice anyone from the older crowd down in the front seats. Having a younger, upscale audience doesn't change the fact that this once great show has been reduced to a gossip show with mostly B list guests. In closing, the audience producer, Danny, gets more pompous and rude with each season. In the waiting area, he humiliated people by mentioning articles of clothing being unacceptable, which they had on. read more

I am looking for audience seats for Dancing with the Stars on 4/23/12. Does anyone know if going to the CBS lots and standing in line, would help get tickets or does calling the live number work. I'm coming from Canada and desperately want tickets. read more

Fucking rude people who work here. I come here for tv shows as an audience member. You treat us as a shit!!! No cell phones, no restroom when we need it!!! read more

is it me or is CBS television out of control with the LACK of control on the volume of their broadcasts? The dialog on any show is sometimes so low that you can barely hear it and in the next instant there is a sudden loud noise that nearly blows you out of your seat. I know that there are electronics that are designed to control the level to tolerant levels. CBS should wake up to the fact that not everyone enjoys such a wide variance blasting in their homes. We have had to turn on the closed captions just to be able to understand what the actors are saying and not be shaken by a closing door or the police siren that sounds like it is in your living room. Get it together CBS. You have some of the best shows being broadcast today, but that doesn't that mean that you are given carte blanch to sit on your asses and do nothing about controlling and monitoring the quality of your sound output. read more

My friend and myself attended the December 8, 2015 taping in NYC. We were on the line at 12:30 pm but didn't go inside until after 2:30. We were the 7th and 8th in line. It was a very cold day to say the least. The studio in NYC is right off the Hudson River. After we finally went inside we were hold up in a room where our pictures were taken and than finally taken into the studio about 4:30. We thought that since we were there first we would at least get to be seated down on he floor near the hosts. But no, we were seated all the way up top and the folks who got to the studio later were given the best seats. This was the holiday week shows so some audiences during the week received great gifts but the taping we attended got nothing but a voucher to see the play Matilda. There were so many blackout date restrictions that it didn't make sense to even try to get tickets. The hosts never interacted with the audience before or after the taping. They were very impersonal. They give off a difference appearance while on camera. Sheryl did shake hands with some folks seated on the floor. I was very disappointed at the way we were treated. It seemed that we were just a fill in audience. I still watch the show but don't feel the same way about the hosts as before. read more

While the studio staff, crew etc. were really helpful and kind to all and the warm-up man (Alan) was amazing (top of any I have ever seen) it has to be said that the parking attendant was one of the rudest individuals I have ever encountered in my life and nearly caused us to walk away from the day's event. We had international guests and, while we all worked in the industry and of all people, understand about over-runs, felt that the rudeness of this guy, his inability to give clear instructions and his arrogance needed to be pointed out. Had he been on one of my productions, he would have been fired for the appalling public relations coup he dealt the show. The actors were all sweet and patient and, for a prime-time comedy, they needed to be as there was an incredible amount of 'hey kids! Let's make a show!' aspect to something that should, at this stage of production, have been far better worked through. Glad the policy in the USA is to iso everything .... (ulp!). read more
