    Thank you for your historical perspective on the back lot. The studios were like working machines, almost everything they needed were right there, no location work and all the technicians were right there.

    I was fortunate enough to go onto the Warner Bros. Ranch Facilities a month before they tore it down. You could see how they were preparing for the teardown which was so sad.

    Of all the backlot videos on UA-cam, this is the most thoroughly researched with comprehensive views of all sides of the stationary exterior sets. Hopefully this creator will provide more material on the numerous backlots in the Thirty Mile Zone.

    Thanks for another look at the Heck house. I studied the backgrounds of the scenes and then find out exactly where they were shot on the ranch by looking at google maps. Thank you again.

    I can not believe that they just demolished the *Bewitched* house.....an ICON, I am traumatized, they should have had it moved or preserved somewhere.

    That whole lot is completely leveled now.
    There’s literally nothing left.
    Such an absolute shame.
    So much history.
    The Omega Man, Christmas Vacation, the Lethal Weapon series, Gremlins...
    Oh well, it all prolly would’ve been lost in these fires anyway.

    I know it wasn't original, why did they not keep the Bewitched house intact and move it to Warner Bros, or maybe Universal studios, its a freaking LAND MARK. Probably the most famous house in all of T.V.,

    @ 0:56. Don’t not quote me, but I have a feeling that, the olde Mexican/South American building may have been a back drop for a Get Smart episode in which he and 99 went to a Sth American country and several scenes were in a ‘square’ of a town looking like that.

    These sets are just like Hollywood- it all looks impressive but both are nothing but fake facades…

    Very well-done. It's awful what they did to the ranch, especially the Bewitched house. No respect for its history.

      People need to stop throwing AI around like it's responsible for all tech right now... 😏....The VR wall which is used a lot right now is actually very realistic and not everything is used with that. We get more location shots and variety today. The old Warner's lot was cool but it outlived its usefulness.

      Keep in mind with sound stages they have full control of the environment so they can actually build real sets inside of them.

      The backlot should have been preserved as a place for tours. It had a lot of rich history made over 89 years.

      ​@@RS-jt6uk Yes, America, being such a young country doesn't have much history compared to Europe, but one aspect about the USA is how our tv shows and movies are seen throughout the world. No other nation can make this claim. This is a strong argument ad to why this lot should have been preserved.

      @mouchiecat1 that they're (Hollywood) is too stupid to hold any ounce of historic value after all these iconic films were made. It's the same crap they're doing here in Vegas where they are tearing down anything that may have an ounce of preservation just to put the latest and greatest for the quickest gain possible
