When MGM first opened, it was billed as a "working" television and movie studio that filmed several t.v. shows (the original Star Search and The New Mickey Mouse Club, I believe).
With the closing of the animation component of the studios, is there anything left which is "working" or is it simply a theme park now? My guess is that no more filming is done on site (hence, no more need for the "wardrobe department," props and facades of Residential Street) which is why RS has also been demolished to make way for Moteurs....Stunt Show.
Anyone know for sure?
By the way, if no filming is done there anymore, do we know the reason? We know why animation closed, but how about live action?
