Tony Randall interview with WNBC on New York studio space

This is from WNBC's Live At Five newscast. Tony Randall and Nancy Littlefield of the NYC Film/TV Commission join anchor Jack Cafferty.

At issue was the fact that Randall's sitcom "Love, Sidney" had to move from it's current studio in New York to Los Angeles because the NYC studio had a previous committment. The studio in question was Reeves Teletape 81st St. studio, and the show they had committed to was "Sesame Street".

Cafferty mentions the first couple of shows were done "across the hall in studio 6A". Actually, the first show was taped in NBC studio 8H, and then moved for the second taping to the Teletape studio. I was there for both of those tapings. They could only do the first show in 8H because of that studio's commitment to "Saturday Night Live".

When it returned to New York, "Love, Sidney" taped in both NBC studio 8H as well as at the CBS Broadcast Center. I am not sure if they ever returned to Teletape after the trip west.
