I'm super familiar with Disneyland, the park should be pretty empty and it will be just me. I think I'll hit DCA when it opens at 10am, ride Tower and Screamin' at least one more time each, then leave by noon to head to the studio (like I said, I already have the pass so no worries about it being so short). That should get me there in plenty of time to match your schedule. Thanks again! I had a guaranteed ticket when I went in March, so I spent the morning doing stuff like the Walk of Fame and the WB tour. I think I headed over to the studio around 3:00-3:30ish. The other factor about when you arrive is your position in line among the other guaranteed ticket holders. Where you are in line affects where you sit. I think they fill up the audience front to back, but starting on the left side of the audience. There's no way to guarantee where you'll end up, but that's just an FYI, if that sort of thing matters. I don't think any of the seats is necessarily bad, because whatever you can't see directly will be up on the monitors. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

camelliayao Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) Ok... I thought tickets for 2/2/2016 was not supposed to be up until tomorrow morning? Apparently they're up already... I just checked and now they're gone. And it says "THIS TICKET DOES NOT GUARANTEE ADMISSION TO THE STUDIO. TICKET HOLDERS ARE ADMITTED ON A FIRST-COME, FIRST-SERVED BASIS AS SPACE ALLOWS." in my email, does it mean it's not a guaranteed ticket? Also does it mean at tomorrow morning there will be tickets for 917? Edited January 3, 2016 by camelliayao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That just means that if you show up late and they give your seat away to a standby ticketholder, you can't just wave your ticket and kick someone out to get your seat back. If you follow the rules on the ticket, you are basically guaranteed entry. They just have to cover their butts if something goes wrong, they don't want to make any promises and have people get angry. It is a guaranteed ticket in terms of guaranteed versus standby, but they just mean don't show up at 6 pm and claim you're guaranteed a seat. I'm not sure why tickets went up this early. Today would be 30 days before, so it should go up on Monday since they don't count weekends. Maybe they're doing that now? Does anyone know what time/day they went up, was it today (Sunday)? If so, maybe they're doing a strict 30 days before the taping and not bothering with weekdays anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went on the website by accident today and was very surprised to see there were tickets for 2/2. The tickets were gone immediately after I submitted my order though. Also could you help me with one more question? I noticed that they don't have facilities provided to hold or store our personal properties. The problem is that I don't have a car so I really need my cellphone to book a taxi or uber to go home when the taping ends. Am I gonna be shut outside the studio directly if I have a phone with me or do they sort of "collect" things like cellphones beforehand and give them back to us afterwards?

notchinc Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 They will collect your cellphone and return it after the taping at the entrance of the stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When ordering tickets for BBT, you can only order one ticket at a time (bummer I know!) you have to put in the information for each person in your party separately.

jlove Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 Question for you awesome prior-attendees: the hotel I'm staying at is almost an hour away from the studio. If I wanted to go somewhere just after the taping to do a quick taping report write-up or get on chat with you guys, do you have any suggestions for a good, close restaurant where I could get wi-fi and a snack while I do so?

McDonald's. Only restaurant with free WiFi that will be open that I know of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickelette424 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 When I was there I thought that the Bob's Big Boy was open 24 hours, but I could be wrong. Not sure if they have free WiFi, but most places do now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitzsimmons Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 Warner Brothers actually has WiFi but it's pretty crappy unless you're on the lot itself. I've sometimes gotten a good signal standing right outside the building on Olive, but obviously not ideal for sitting down at a computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theoneandonly Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Hi all, I'm in NZ and I'm about to book tickets for flights to LA specifically to come to a BBT taping. I'm planning on booking for October 23-27 to attend a (probable) taping on the 25th. Is it likely that that date will be a non taping day? I can book other times in October, but I need I book them now to get the best prices. Does anyone know of any reason why they might not tape October 25th?

Technically you can still get bumped for a VIP, but I've only ever heard of it happening once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
