In Los Angeles, you can request tickets for talk shows\u00a0<em><a href=\"http:\/\/1iota.com\/Show\/1\/Jimmy-Kimmel-Live\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jimmy Kimmel Live<\/a>,\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/send.ellentv.com\/tickets\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>The Ellen<\/em><em> Show<\/em><\/a>, or competitions entertainment like\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/1iota.com\/Show\/178\/The-Voice\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>The Voice<\/em><\/a> and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/on-camera-audiences.com\/shows\/Dancing_with_the_Stars\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Dancing With The Stars<\/em><\/a>. It&#8217;s a singular experience to be part of the crowd, and a must if you&#8217;re a fan of any of those shows. Keep in mind that tickets are limited, so get ready to plan ahead if you don&#8217;t want to miss out.<\/p>\n<h2>Filming Locations<\/h2>\n<p>Many of your favorite TV moments were filmed on sound stages, but an impressive number took place right in Los Angeles. With a little research, you can easily set up your own customized tour of the city and some of its famous filming locations. Grab lunch at <a href=\"http:\/\/urthcaffe.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Urth Caffe<\/a>\u00a0, like the cast of\u00a0<em>Entourage,\u00a0<\/em>before heading out to Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park to see where they shot some of the original\u00a0<em>Star Trek\u00a0<\/em>series. If you&#8217;re feeling nostalgic for the nineties you can swing by the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lamag.com\/citythinkblog\/scene-it-before-the-walsh-house-from-beverly-hills-90210\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Walsh house<\/a> from\u00a0<em>90210<\/em> (the original, not the remake). Enjoy a fancy dinner at <a href=\"http:\/\/smokehouse1946.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The SmokeHouse<\/a>, where the wedding of Jim and Pam from\u00a0<em>The Office<\/em> (the American-version, obviously)\u00a0took place. A good way to finish off any television tour of LA is with a stop at the original Batcave in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hikespeak.com\/trails\/bronson-cave\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Griffith Park<\/a>, where the late, great Adam West chilled out in between fighting off villains.<\/p>\n<p>What are you waiting for? You are just a few cheap flights away to find out where your favorite shows were filmed.
