Went to Warner Brothers Studio for a taping of the Conan show and had a blast! WB is really organized and we got to walk through the studio a little bit before the show which was awesome. A longer wait process before the show which was a little frustrating, but I understand that its not a fast process. (Arrived at 1:30pm for check-in, made it inside the Conan set around 3:45pm, and was back at my car around 5:45pm). Conan's stage was small and fun; I was sitting in the second row from the back but felt as though I was right up front. I love Conan, I love his show, and he was GREAT =) Can't wait to see another taping. read more

We loved the Warner Brothers Studio Tour! Our tour guide, Vanessa was wonderful. She was very polite and knowledgeable with an answer for every question. She never rushed us crazy fans as took a billion pictures. We drove past many facades and stages of current shows, walked through home sets, seen real movie costumes, and learned a little about tv/movie stage magic. We truly loved every minute of it, but our main favorites were the city of Rosewood from PLL, Justice League costumes, Harry Potter memorabilia, the Friends Central Perk set and Ellen's stage! At the Friends set, visitors re-enact a scene from the show. My sister and I were chosen with speaking parts. That was a blast. Luckily, Ellen was not taping that day, so we got a special treat and was able to visit her stage, sit in the audience (Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep have their own seats) and take as many pictures as we could in 15 minutes. It was truly amazing and the closest thing to seeing her. The gift shop had plenty of souvenirs from many of the shows. The entire process from checking in to exiting was well organized. I highly recommend the studio tour for fans of any WB shows or films. read more

We did the "2 Broke Girls" tapping show. They are well organized, you are given a number, and they tell you where to sit. Beware the staff gives out conflicting information in regards to when to take your phone back to your car. I arrived super early, 1:30 pm, brought a book and just hung out. The wait was in the underground parking area, with benches to sit on, and near a bathroom. They allow about 175 people, plus VIP folks. They will turn people away once they have a total head count of 200. Warning - you definitely can NOT take your phone in with you. They will allow you to take it to your car, but you need to verify with your neighbor in line that they'll save your spot. They provided a 1/2 sandwich, on white bread, a 4 oz water, at about 8:00 pm; some small candy pieces about 10 pm. About 6 cupcakes to selected folks. Six people were selected to go behind the scenes. We got out about 11 pm. Suggest you bring in snacks, drinks, or anything you want to carry with you. They check you bags. It was a blast, the host & DJ were great and entertaining. My suggestion to WB - provide better food, and don't feed us so late. Stop bragging about us getting some of those yummy cupcakes, since you gave out 6 total. Love the show, and they were all great. I would do it again, but now I know what to expect. read more

I have been to the Ellen Show live taping concert for No Doubt and Conan O' Brien Show live taping as well!!! Both were really fun! It was such an awesome experience, especially the Ellen Show Backlot Concert with No Doubt! It was right on the lot of Gilmore Girls. Pretty neat seeing it! The staffs were all very friendly! And Conan is just the best! When i see him, i cant help but smile! I cant wait to go to another taping! read more

Warner Bros Studios - Video/Film Production Near Me - Burbank, California

This is my 2nd favorite tour (Universal is Tops especially if you have kids of any age) Warner has it all and they show it. We got to see the Ellen show set and an Awesome display of the Batman cars. Must see! read more

I had an appointment at 10:30am at the Post Production office and parked at Gate 3. Security was tight, your name had to be on the list and you MUST have a current ID. Before you walk in your purse/belongings will get checked and they make you walk through a metal detector. Once we were inside it was a very a long walk, because the Post Production offices were way in the back and beside the WB water tower. I didn't know this, but the ELLEN DEGENERES Show was filmed there. On our way to the Post Production office we met up with some MISS USA contestants featured guests on the Ellen show and I got to meet MISS OREGON! GOOD LUCK!!! I didn't get the VIP tour, but I got to go behind the scenes and saw what goes on after a filming a movie. Totally cool, awesome experience! Oh, and by the way - I missed Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher by like 10 minutes.. Poor me : ( read more

Unfortunately, I found out that the Animaniacs do not live in the WB Water Tower. Sigh. For work, I get to check in at the studio every now and then. Yes, I keep all my temporary visitor badges for proof that I was indeed there. Someone gave us a quick tour (not the "tour" tour...but a behind the scenes tour) of the lot and we got to ride a golf cart! Was pretty excited about riding a golf cart...but riding a golf cart through the lot!?? Craaaazy. One moment we're in the middle of a forest with a creeepy run down cabin, the next, we're breezing through Carrie Bradshaw's New York neighborhood, complete with her adorable stoop. I love love loved the museum. I got to try on the Hogwart's Sorting Hat, and landed a spot with the Griffyndor. Score! My mom's gonna be so proud. I guess you have to get used to the environment if you work here. We were eating at the cafeteria, and I noticed a guy with blood gushing all over his face. "Oh my God!! Is he okay!??" Our guide quickly looked up from his meal and said, "Yeah, he's fine. He just came from the ER set." "Oh. CooOooOOool.." Anyway, great experienced, great place :D read more

Very cool place to visit if you're out of town or even born/raised in LA but want to try something new (ME!) Tickets are $54/person for a 2 hour tour of the WB lot. Our tour guide Kyle was great and funny, though our group was less enthusiastic so it made for a less exciting tour. Big Bang Theory is one of my favorite shows so our tour guide actually brought us onto the set! Very cool to see the stage and props. We also got to go onto the Conan show stage AND the set of friends at the cafe! Because it is Batman's 75th anniversary, we also got to walk through a small batman exhibit where batmobiles, old and present, are displayed. The tour is concluded with a visit to the WB museum consisting of Batman movie memorabilia (old and present) and Harry Potter movie memorabilia. My gf and I had a great time here. GPS had no problem locating WB studious and there are enough signs around to guide you to the parking lot. Fortunately I was lucky enough to find street parking so I didn't need to pay the $7 parking lot fee. hehe PRO-TIP: The tour is only as fun as you make it. So if you want to visit any of your favorite shows' sets, speak up! Our group only visited the big bang theory and Conan sets because my gf and I said we liked those shows; no one else in our group spoke when Kyle asks what we liked.... read more

Just went on tour 4/26/19 with our guide Dan. Dan is beyond full of himself and constantly made statements that were so obviously wrong it made the rest of the tour long and boring. It is not a 3 hour tour. Ours was 1 hour, 45 minutes. Then you get dumped off at the Central Perk (Friends) look-a-like coffe stop, for a self guided tour that took us 15 minutes and we took our time and took pictures. Our total time at WB was just over 2 hours. We would occasionally bump into other tour groups and their guides seemed much more informative than Dan. According to Dan we were told several time that he had 20 plus years in the business and he was ahppy to share several examples that had nothing to do with the tour and were not informative or entertaining. read more

Was here for the Produced by Conference 2014. Not sure what to review. The lot? Well, it's just your typical studio lot. A lot of sound stages, theaters. All those stuff. Parking in lot 3 is a breeze, that's where I parked. That's it. :) read more

Security is kind of mean. I know they have a job to do, but I felt one of the guards was almost rude to me because didn't know where to check in. I went with my boyfriend and we gave the guard at the booth (not the rude one) our ID.s My boyfriend got his pass no problem, but she had nothing for me. It turns out my last name was misspelled and that's why I couldn't get my badge. That's my two star review. I'm giving it an extra star because my mom (on a different day) went on the VIP studio tour and LOVED it. read more

Just being able to step foot inside of a place where you know many famous actors were at, or world famous movies were shot is an exciting feeling! On our trip to LA, we went to the Conan show and we got to walk inside Warner Brothers Studio. It is just building after building and inside you can see the sets, and on the outside there they have the names of all the films that were filmed there! It was really interesting and at the same time exciting! While we were waiting for the Conan show, we actually saw the batmobile! Now that is cool!! read more

Very enjoyable tour with clearly set rules. Highlights were Harry Potter set props (no pictures unfortunately), Mentalist scenes, Big Bang set (no pictures due to it being a live set) and Ellen stage (live set again). Well worth a one time visit. read more

I am sure the guy at the WB is looking at these and not caring one bit but I feel like I need to add my voice to this cause. First buying the rights then shutting down a game for no reason? that just makes you a heartless corp...not honoring turbines promise to the players of giving the game to us to run our own servers...thats just a lack of ethics to me, and now you shut down something that brought a lot of us real happiness for what reason? was it taking money out of your pocket? no. where we hurting any one? no. Just seems like a big company pushing its weight around to me not caring about the thousands apon thousands of Asheron's Call fans..I used to watch a lot of WB tv shows but now I will not watch or buy anything with the WB logo on it till you honor the terms Turbine told us...and will continue to spread the word of this what I call an Injustice. read more

Took a VIP tour of the WB Studios today. It was awesome. On the website it said the tour was 2 hours but it definitely went over some. Which was great because it doesn't feel rushed or like you're on a set schedule. I'm sure that depends from tour guide to tour guide but ours was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable (which I'm sure they all have to be!) and really nice. The studios were very nice. Loved the tour and the behind-the-scenes. We tried to get into the Conan show with stand-by tickets (that our tour guide had told us about) and we didn't get it. So we sadly walked back to our car. What a bummer. We were really hoping to get in but I guess it just wasn't our time... we were SO close. Maybe next time. I would definitely recommend the VIP Tour. read more

So my friends and I frequent WB Studios quite frequently. Mostly for tapings of Conan (TEAMCOCO ftw). I absolutely love WB Studios and the people who work there. Everyone is so kind, unlike Paramount. There are so many studios all with plaques that show what series have been taped there. My friend loves walking by Studio 24, or the "FRIENDS" studio for those of you who are die hard "FRIENDS" fans. On our most recent visit we passed by the studio filming "The Big Bang Theory" and got a glimpse at Kelly Cucuo. She's so pretty. Oh and I love the show. The offer tours so definitely check those out also. read more

Came here to see a taping of the Conan O'Brien show. While I made my way through the studio lot, I walked past the studio where they tape Two and a Half Men, Ellen, Lopez Tonight, Shameless, Big Bang Theory, and so much more. Next time I'm going to take the V.I.P. tour so I can get a picture in front of the house that was used to film National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. "That there is an RV Clark, don't you go fallin' in love with it, cause we're taking it with us when we leave next month." Good Times! read more

Cruzing around Thursday we saw Rebel Wilson hanging out right outside of a sound stage. I like Warner Bros. Been here for several shows. Seen quite a few celebs. It's always fun, lots of activity. Hung out at Perk Central for a little coffee, snacks, emailing and shopping. Extra Good time when you score Swag and a return visit for a show. WB always leaves my guests with a memorable fun experience. Thank you WB! read more

ive taken the tour and walked around the lot myself. Both were pretty awesome experiences. I suggest taking the tour at least once because the tour guides know so many little tidbits about the studio!! You get to walk around the sets, see all the sound stages and if you are lucky, run into some stars!! definitely check out the museum, especially if you are a harry potter fan!! they have so much cool stuff and you are even able to get sorted by the sorting hat!! plus, stuff from the final hp films will be arriving at the museum soon! read more

My last time here was for CONAN taping and that is my biggest draw but I also love Ellen and I took the super long tour to see Stars Hallow and all the Gilmore Girls information. I love GILMORE GIRLS! Anyway, I got to lunch at the inner cafe and they did have yummy vegan options, it was great. It brought my inner-child to the fore to be surrounded by the history of it. read more

Classic Hollywood. No need to take the tour, cause I grew up on the lot over the years when my dad was on a new show here. It's a great lot. The western set ruled as a kid. I use to hangout here when my day was shooting or in dailies. Security knew me and it was a no brain-er. Mind you this is 20 years ago and times have changed. Doubt they would do that now. In the days when my friend Garth ran the studio and locked up all the writers WB was a finely tuned machine and still is, but ridding on the back of Robert Downey jr. now. (Cha Ching $$$). Thank g-d for Robert! Did I mention the best eating holes are all around here! read more

I've only been on the lot twice for non tour purposes and both have been for taping. With that said, the staff has always been friendly and the trips enjoyable. read more

Went here for a show. Parking was good. Was given some granola while waiting. Clean facilities.

Very cool tour! You get an awesome view of the studios and great stories! I love the history and the little stops that remind you of the greatest shots in blockbuster movies or popular sitcoms. I wish I couldve seen more, but I went for an event so we only got a little peek. I will return next time to get the full experience and maybe meet a star :) read more

The Warner Brothers 'campus' is quite large. It was cool to see some recognizable back drops and all of the staff milling about. It was amazing to see how much security and how many security guards they had all over the grounds. They required ID to get in, then bag and metal detector checks at another point inside. It was as if I were trying to get in to the Federal Reserve Bank! I got the chance to watch a movie here in one of their screening rooms. The room was fairly large. The seats were comfortable but not much pitch, so a tall person in the row in front really hindered viewing. However, each row of seats is curved in a slight concavity, such that it was easier for the people seated on the ends to see the screen without distortion - great idea! Acoustics were nice as well. This was my first time here and I hope to be able to go back and spend more time! read more

Definitely the best studio tour around, and it keeps getting better. My parents & I visited this past weekend and had a great time -- we saw the sets of Supergirl (the awesome cave), Pretty Little Liars, and Big Bang Theory (we were lucky to see three sets as most tours only see one or two). The museum with the Batman & Harry Potter memorabilia was cool, where you can get sorted by the Sorting Hat; the Batman vehicles exhibit would make movie and car buffs drool; the prop warehouse had all sorts of awesome trinkets, perfect for antiques lovers; and we had our photos taken on the set of "Friends" and also experienced the green screen effects firsthand at the "Stage 48" area. Two years ago I went on the Paramount Studios Tour and Warner Brothers was definitely better -- slicker production, more sets, more high tech, though Paramount has a lovely nostalgic feeling. I had also gone on the Warner Studios tour many years earlier and got my photo taken with Vince Vaughn while he was filming "Starsky and Hutch" there (he happened to be taking a break in shooting when our cart drove by, and was nice enough to pose for photos); although we didn't see any famous actors this time, the overall experience was so much improved. Must do for anyone visiting the LA area. Tip: If you can visit on a weekday, go to tvtickets.com and sign up for a TV taping (you should register at least 2-3 weeks prior to your visit if possible). We went on the Warner Studio Tour in the early afternoon and then watched the very funny "Mom" (starring Allison Janney and Anna Faris) TV taping that night also at Warner. What a wonderful day!! read more

So much fun.. if possible catch a tour with Jonathan super funny and makes the tour that much.. he does impressions and is always on a look out to see if he can spot a celebrity! You get to visit sound studios and go on the set. We were lucky to see PPL (Pretty little Liars) set go through rosewood highschool hall way and saw the dinner of two broke girls. Towards the end of the tour WB has a nice Gift shop and shows you in detail how the green screen works. Highly recommend this for people who enjoy sitcoms and WB movies! read more

What a fun place... I'm sure it's more fun if you do the studio tour and you're not just sneaking around like I was... Just like Universal Studios you can walk through New York... or whatever... There is a museum of sorts I somehow managed to wander into where they had stuff from the movies displayed... The sorting hat was there as well as other fun stuff from the Harry Potter movies... I also managed to wander off and find a nice empty sound stage to take a nap in... Sssshhh... read more

We have Bob here giving us a tour. Its been a fun tour (although a bit too over the top at times). But really fun really none theless. We got to learn a lot and sit on the friend's couch. Also see all the original sets for many movies & shows. read more

Warner Bros Studios - Front - Video/Film Production Near Me - Burbank, California

We had a great tour of the studio for Broke Girls, studio artifacts, museum for Harry Potter and Batman and sound stages too. It was a great tour and I would highly recommend it for anyone in the area. Next time I will try to get tickets to watch a show being filmed LIVE - which would be worth seeing. The tour is done via large group golf carts, so there isn't much walking really. read more

We came to the Warner Brothers Studio Tour in celebration of my daughters 13th birthday. She is a huge PLL fan, so she was excited to see all of their houses, the high school and church. Our tour guide, Amanda, was very accommodating. She was very friendly, informative and funny. Seeing the Ellen set was a big plus for us mommies. The new interactive tour was also very educational and fun for all of us. The Green Screen was exciting for the girls to try and all of the employees were genuinely kind and helpful. We had a GREAT time! read more

Warner Bros Studios - Having fun at the Central Perk. - Video/Film Production Near Me - Burbank, California

I may not completely agree with the views and business practices of Warner Bros. Studios but I am a huge fan of the studios themselves. Ive been lucky enough to visit the studios through the tour and private events, and they really are a remarkable place. The size of the studios themselves are impressive but what is inside is what is really amazing. Everything can be so realistic and life sized you wouldn't believe its not real. If you have the opportunity to take the studio tour or visit the studios some way don't miss the opportunity to do so. Its worth the visit and the price. Plus its fun for the whole family, people travel from all over the world just to check it out. Universal Studios theme park is another cool place to check out how the studios are but its not quite the same thing. Few more details I could add is that security is tight but very friendly, it really feels like a tailored experience vs just walking around a studio. read more

If you are planning a trip to California you have to go to Warner Brothers Studios. It was AWESOME!!!! Coolest tour ever of sound stages, prop buildings, studios etc. We went on the set of Friends, Pretty Little Liars, Gilmore Girls, Two Broke Girls, a new show called Rush Hour and a few more. Our tour guide Matt could have been the president of Warner Brothers because he knew everything and more. He was smart, witty, polite, funny and so much more. He made the tour fantastic. Thanks Matt. Highly recommend Warner Brothers Studio tour. AAA++ read more

Warner Bros Studios - Video/Film Production Near Me - Burbank, California

I've been here a few times and got a special tour of the studio lot from an employee. We were able to see all of the back lot and sets for shows like Pretty Little Liars, The Mentalist and more. It's so cool seeing where all the shows are filmed and the fake lake where characters drowned in was only two feet deep, the fake jungle and houses that were only facades. Be sure to check out the set where Blazing Saddles burst out onto the lot. One time we saw that Chuck was filming and we saw the actors. Pretty cool. I even got to hold a giant piece of prop rubble. We had lunch at the cafeteria and Starbucks. Definitely more fun than the average tour. read more

We were lucky to get tickets to the taping of one of my favorite shows, "The Real." We were instructed to be there about 2 hours early if we wanted to get in. Once there, you stand down in a garage waiting...and waiting. About 8:00am the staff came and began checking people's tickets...and then more waiting. The staff then began to give us instructions. Everyone was issued a number which determined which side of the next line you'd go to, after walking through a metal detector, and then...we waited. They thoroughly checked all bags and purses, checked our ID, had us to sign a release form, the staff took a photo of us..."it was as though we were about to board a plane" and yes, there was, you guessed it...more waiting!!! Then they began to call out numbers and we were led in groups of about 25 - 30 people across the street into the studio after about a long 30 minute walk!! After we landed we were led into "The Real" sound stage, we took photos of the set, each other, the audience. At this point their Master of Ceremonies who is there to keep the crowd lively, got us clapping our hands, standing up, they threw out t-shirts and candy into the audience - that was fun. I was a little disappointed on the day that we went there were no guest, no grab-bags, MAI Picks, Spin the Wheel, Match the Socks, Find Money in Pants, Finding Items in the tub of Balls & match them or Pay Your Bills. The gorgeous ladies did the entire show by themselves. They all looked sexier in person than when watching it from home. The one thing I did get out of going and seeing them in person was seeing "my favorite" of the ladies, Jeannie Mai, she is so super energetic and seems to be a really fun person to hang around...would I do it again, "don't know." read more

I want to start off this review by saying I have attended a total of 4 sitcom tapings and all of them were put on by audiences unlimited, and we're GREAT experiences, however this past experience was what prompted me to write this review. We attended a taping of The Ranch at Warner Brothers and it was a disaster from the beginning. The minute we walked up to the check in area, the page's didn't even care to listen to any questions we had, instead they told us to go sit down in the unorganized line that had ZERO rhyme or reason to it. we had to ask the people around us what show the line was for and if we were in the right area....after being ignored twice when trying to inquire where we are supposed to be from the page's, one woman page finally gets to us and checks our tickets. She noticed we were holding VIP tickets (I'll spare the details of the last nightmare of when we tried to get into the taping months before) she pointed us to the VIP check in and told us to "hurry over there, because we were in this line for nothing." once we reached the VIP podium and handed the page our tickets, we were greeted from a woman that opened with "you guys are lucky you made it in time and I didn't give away your tickets." EXCUSE ME?! This is after YOUR company told us to sit in the wrong line for a half hour because you didn't want to even the acknowledge our presence and pretended to not even notice us when we were trying to get your attention. Once we lined up and were paraded into the Backlot like cattle, we were screamed at every 2-3 minutes to "STAY IN THE CROSSWALK LINES." (really guys, it's just a studio, calm down) we were handed off from page to page, like it was some sort of obstacle course, and the threatened to use the restroom at the next page stop, and how that would be our only chance. (oooo so scary) once we reached the page where we were supposed to use the facilities, they kept walking and when questioned, told us that there would be no bathroom stop. We then reached the sound stage and were ushered in.. to the BACK ROW of course.... but that part is just what it is, cant control that. To end the evening, they were giving out cold, left over pizza slices at the end of the taping and asking you to "grab a slice" on your way out. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR..... Go down the street to CBS and attend a taping. they are more organized, aren't on a power trip, will be much nicer to you and it will be a much more pleasurable experience. read more

This is one of the best studios I've worked at. The commissary provides so many food options and a lot of regular corporate workers are very friendly. Definitely the friendliest people I've seen work at a studio. The Starbucks is inside the gift shop across from the commissary. New York Street always stays busy with productions filming there. What I love about Warner Brothers is that a lot of the facades actually have insides built into them that get modified depending on each production. The massive amount of movement that goes on with the Ellen show is incredible. The audience is held right by the parking lot till they walk them across the street for the show and they walk into the sound stage from the outside of the studio through a small door. I guess it speeds up the security process so it's not inconvenient for people trying to get into the studio for work due to long lines. Very efficient. read more

This review is only for the 2 Broke Girls taping. The taping started at 5pm and we got there around 3:30 because they state that they don't guarantee a spot for you. The parking structure is at Gate 8 and you wait on the 1st level of the parking structure. There's a section of benches where you wait. There wasn't a lot of people for 2 Broke Girls. We stood in line and they ask for the paper that you print out for the taping to check their list and they give you a number and they write it on your paper. Then 2 more people will check your ID (passport, license, etc) and give you a stamp on your hand and they'll take your paper. They will also tell you to leave your cell phones in the car. If you don't, they will hold it for you when you get inside (seems like they don't like to do this but they kind of have to for those who are here on vacation and/or didn't come by car). There's restrooms where you wait but it's at the other side of the parking structure. After waiting for 30 minutes, a person who works there, takes people by groups because we have to walk across the street (where there's a light) and you go through metal detectors. They do look inside your purse and you do have to take everything out of your pockets. After your group is through, they will take you to the sound stage. When you go inside, you go through another metal detectors and they do a really thorough search of your belongings too. They will almost open every pocket/zipper in your purse. If you have a cell phone, this is where they will take it and put it in a bag. After going through the metal detectors, you go upstairs and you tell them how many people in your party. They will seat you based on how many people are in your party. The taping itself was fun. It took about 4 hours for the whole taping since we started exactly at 5. They showed an episode (without commercials) while the cast and crew got ready. They have a guy to keep you entertained in between the breaks while taping like when the actors change their clothes, changing the script, etc . You can ask him questions about the show and he'll mention things about the show that you wouldn't know. They did give out snacks (rice krispy treats and a bunch of candy), a half sandwich, and a mini bottled water. They have a loud sound to tell you when they're taping so they won't let people in or out of the sound stage until they finished filming a certain scene. If you go to the restroom during the taping, they have a person to take you to the restroom so it's only a few people at a time. However, if you go to the restroom and they start to tape while you are gone, they will not let you back in until they finished the scene. So you can miss a few minutes if you don't go at the right time. Even though it was a bit long, it was a good experience. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to see how they film shows in Hollywood. I would definitely do another taping. Note: To all those Big Bang Theory audience members, come earlier! Because the show is very popular, a lot of people come here early to stand in line to get in and like I said above, they don't guarantee a spot. There was more people waiting for this show than 2 Broke Girls and their taping was later than 5pm on the day I went. read more
