| CBS TELEVISION CITY LAS VEGAS |
Located inside the MGM Grand hotel-casino, the CBS Television City
Research Center gives visitors the chance to be part of the network's
decision-making by viewing and rating pilots (shows that haven't aired yet)
and other television programs they need input on.
There is no charge, and the hours of operation are from 10 am until
screenings wrap for the day - usually around 10 p.m. Screenings run around
every half hour and can last from 40 minutes to two hours.
No reservations are needed since screenings are ongoing. Just go to the
research center, located near the pool at the end of the Studio Walk, after
picking up your tickets either in front of the center or at the entrance to MGM
Grand's parking garage.
Five minutes before the screening begins, viewers go to one of six studios to
watch the latest offerings from CBS, MTV, Nickelodeon and other Viacom
networks. Participants are then instructed on how to use the test pads and
monitors to register their opinions.
The show's length determines the time of the testing process. A survey
following the program lasts around 15 minutes, so viewers should expect an
hour for an hour-long show (actually 45 minutes, as it is shown with no
commercials).
Television City also offers incentives for helping them out, and everyone has
a chance to win a home-theater system worth over $9,000 by joining
Television City's entertainment panel, which will send items for review -- such
as commercials and pilot programs -- to participants' homes.
Hours: Daily 10 am until about 10 pm
