Due to people not wearing masks in Los Angeles, television production has barely begun in the city. While the Soap Operas are back at work, very little else is, and it doesn’t look like much else will start anytime soon.
Wendi McLendon-Covey revealed this weekend that The Goldbergs has no set start date because of the pandemic. The Bachelorette fled their LA mansion for a remote undisclosed resort. The dating show is not the only ABC series to change locals. Deadline is reporting that Shark Tank will be filming their 12th season in Las Vegas.
The site says that the crew and Sharks are staying in one location to minimize their risk to catching COVID-19. Even though the show airs over 22 weeks, they actually only film over 2, two-week time periods. This way they can rush out half a season in a quarantine period.
Looks ABC’s fall will now pretty much be The Bachelorette, Shark Tank, and Dancing with the Stars. I wonder if the latter will go to Vegas too. Imagine Bruno Tonioli in Vegas? Good thing what happens there, stays there.
BTW I hope for their first episode they have products that can help us fight the coronavirus pandemic like masks, hand sanitizers, and ultraviolet lights.
