A tour of the CBS Broadcast Center

[@lewismusser7184]

I was working at the CBS Broadcast Center on the set of "As The World Turns" the morning the Challenger exploded. And of course,CBS News was in the same building. I'm still amazed by the cast of the soap that day, which included Julianne Moore, and how they somehow professionally finished taping the episode. Because we were all in a state of shock because of the news.

Excuse me. Btw, I'm interested to apply for a job on CBS can you give me a tip or a help on how apply for a job there?

[@lewismusser7184]

@@RonaldMelgazoJr hi Ronald. Living in New York City is major advantage because of all the CBS outlets there. I do know that WCBS- News radio 880 posts employment notices on-air, non-specific, but that's a start-up possibility. Best of luck and don't give up.

@@lewismusser7184 can I apply online?? Do you know their business email address?

I love the "catacombs". I'd love to see more of that area.

CBS Broadcast Center in NYC is also the home of the flagship station for CBS WCBS-TV, and Long Island Independent WLNY.

Damn I wish I worked at that building lmao I’d always be exploring. I love buildings like that and the history.

As the World Turns and Search for Tomorrow were taped at the CBS Broadcast Center just across the hall from the studio 43 of CBS’ NFL Today.

Wow. This is awesome. Would love to see this in person. Mo, you wanna fly me out to NY and give me a tour?

Fantastic studio! You need to tour CBS Television City in Los Angeles!

+Joseph Pratt Do they have catacombs, too?

[@JosephPratt1986]

I'm not sure. They also tape "Inside Edition" at the CBS Broadcast Center.

Geraldo Rivera's syndicated talk show was also done there in the '90s (they first originated at the original Times Square Studios).

Fun fact: Julianne Moore sort of reprised her dual soap opera in “Benny And Joon” (1993). In that movie, she played a former slasher movie actress that played the dual roles of sisters. One was the killer, the other a scream queen victim.

[@radiogoodguy6287]

Quite an impressive behind the scenes tour! And my favorite show as a kid came from here! Captain Kangaroo!

[@JHollowayNetwork]

Broadcast Center is the East Division of CBS's Operating center (West Division is Television City in Hollywood) it is the home for news operations (CBS This Morning, CBS Morning News, CBS News Up-to-the-Minute (formely CBS News Nightwatch with Charlie Rose), Sunday Morning, Evening News, News updates), sports operations (NCAA Pre-game show, NFL Today Pregame and Postgame, CBS Sports Spectular) as well as soap operas and sitcoms. Also yearly-affilate promo briefings launching image campaigns (CBSpirit, Share the Spirit, We've Got the Touch, Great Moments, Reach for the Stars, Looking Good Together, Looking Good etc...) were done in the studio as well.

[@danieldougan269]

It's not as exciting or glamorous as 30 Rock, but it's still important.

Well Rockefellar Ctr is more iconic because of the architecture and location on 5th Ave.

I was wondering where this place was - I watched Last Week Tonight w/ John Oliver (Mar. 15) and I didn't know he did his show from here. - But not this past weekend as this damn virus infected one-or a few who work here. Fascinating video though.

Too bad the soap opera industry in NYC died with the cancellation of As The World Turns. I wonder how many other soaps were taped in this studio

[@johnd9664]

adelgado75 Love of Life was for sure, and Guiding Light for a time. I'm not sure about any others.

[@tommyparkerparker]

Search for Tomorrow was also taped at the CBS Broadcast Center. When Search for Tomorrow moved to NBC in 1982, for the first few months on NBC, Search was still taping at the CBS Broadcast Center even though the show was aired on NBC.

[@tnate6004]

@@johnd9664 Yup, you can see Love of Life director Larry Auerbach walking out of Studio 41 at the end of the last show of the series that aired Feb. 1, 1980. I'm guessing that The Secret Storm and perhaps Love is a Many Splendored Thing and Where the Heart Is were taped there.
