It’s been several years since I’ve been to LA – and even longer since I was at the Disney studio – so there may be new service that didn’t exist when I was there. I hope there is. When I was there, the subway ridership mostly consisted of mothers and their baby carriages, not commuters like here and NYC and every place else with a subway system.
One important question: When does the bus stop running? Is it after 10 pm, or preferably even later? Because the filming of shows usually goes past 10 o’clock. The 2 times I went to Disney, the closest bus was the 96. Riverside drive? I can’t remember. Anyway, it was at least a 15 minute walk to the studio entrance from where the bus lets you off. And, of course, a 15 minute walk back – in the dark – and unlike here, the streets of LA are deserted at that hour. In other words, there are zero pedestrians. Even worse, the bus stopped running at maybe 8:45 or so, so I may have had to leave the show early. Using public transportation for Warner Brothers and Studio City after 9 isn’t easy either, but at least it exists and there are no long walks in the dark.

There are also peak-hour City of Burbank shuttles from North Hollywood Red Line Station and from the Metrolink station that have a stop at that same corner. The latter also stops farther south on Buena Vista adjacent to the west gate of Disney.
