Re: [TV orNotTV] CBS to sell Television City?

the majority of North America will not object to "live from Hollywood, CA" statement if the actual shooting location is within a 30 minute drive (without traffic) of actual Hollywood. Like, really, what freakin intersection is declared as Hollywood? I was watching Thursday night football on CBS

[TV orNotTV] flashback - Bizarre

Dunno if those in USA saw this when it was fresh in the 1980's, but since it was CANCON (Canadian Content) it was shown prime-time on CTV (9pm? 10pm?). It was the spring-board for Super Dave Osborne. The show featured John Byner, who I never knew before. I think it was shot at a studio/theatre
