The specs of Soundstage 31 (B&B's now former soundstage): (x)

  • 10,000 sq. ft
  • 130' x 110' (dimensions)
  • 26' ft (height)
  • 25' to Grid (clear height)
  • 14' 8" x 14' 5" (door; WXH)
  • (6) 200 amps (power)
  • 117 tons (AC)

My guess, looking at the stage spaces at the Las Palmas location, they're likely to occupy Stage 6 (11,276 sq. ft) or upgrade to one of the larger lots, like Stage 10 (15,822 sq. ft) or Stage 11 (16,645 sq. ft). Or possibly even Stage 3/8 (19,900 sq. ft), the latter of which would nearly double their stage space and would clearly allow for what McCook referenced as enlarging the sets.

In January 2015, for the 7,000th episode of B&B, the Stage 31 at CBS Television City was officially dedicated as the "Bradley P. Bell Stage 31".
(The 7,000th episode aired January 23, 2015. The party for the 7,000th and dedication ceremony was held the week before that.)

I can't remember how big Errol said the stages were at the new studio

The studios at Culver Studios would be the logical move, but it'd also depend on studio space; I do believe Y&R holds two stages at Television City of considerable size, while B&B held one. And while spaces at Culver are considerable, they don't look as flushed/substantial as what they presently have at Television City.

 

That’s another studio in Culver City, CA. The official Sony Pictures Studio address is: 10202 West Washington Boulevard Culver City, CA 90232. It has a lot of room and is very state of the art. 

Tours are done for the public on that studio lot because it’s rich in history having been the former MGM lot where much of their classic library was also produced. Sony houses most of their TV production on that lot, so whenever Y&R’s TV City lease is up, they’ll probably want it housed there unless they want to pay to lease another space (Sony is notoriously cheap so I think their own lot would probably produce more efficiencies). But definitely a few years away to your point.

After all the tenants (including Y&R) eventually leave CBS Television City, and the building is completely emptied, what will the new owners do with Carol Burnett stage door?

It will likely be donated to some type of museum for preservation and to be viewed by the public. It obviously holds a lot of historical value and weight.

I'm happy that everybody seems to be excited about the studio move. I hope that at least visually they give us something to look forward to. I know we can't count on anything storywise but I'd be willing to tune in for a while to see how the show looks.
