I posted earlier today that the old NBC Studios in Burbank were largely empty, at least the last time I visited there…and so were likely to be demolished soon. I am embarrassed but also somewhat happy to say I was wrong. Our pal Rich Fogel informs me that the videogame giant, Blizzard Entertainment, has moved in there and done extensive fixing-up…and the place is now very much active and unlikely to be replaced by a Costco. That's good to hear…
…but I'm a bit ashamed to admit I didn't know that. Why? Because I'm working now for Blizzard. In fact, I was I in the midst of a script for them ten minutes ago when I got Rich's message. I should know these things.
Anyway, that's another thing that could become of CBS Television City: Some big company could move in and make it theirs. But CBS is more in the area where you might want to build a big condo/retailer complex than NBC is.
