NBC Studio 6A…Newly Redone & Proud As A Peacock With New Feathers!
Here is the first look at the newly revamped studio, that is now the home of “Maya & Marty”.
Shortly after “The Meredith Vieira Show” wrapped earlier this year, the set was struck and the studio underwent a major remodeling, for the first time in many years. It was three years ago at Studios 6B and 8G were totally remodeled, and made ready for the “Tonight” show, and “Late Night With Seth Meyers”.
To Comcast’s credit, they have done a first rate job of not only making the studios first class, state of the art facilities, and adding three new control rooms, but they have also restored many public parts of 30 Rockefeller Plaza to their former glory. They did a great job of restoring of the grand staircase and rotunda on the lobby and mezzanine floors, adding the seventh floor galleries, restarting the tours and adding new tour areas and more. Keep up the good work! Thanks to Dennis Degan for the photos. -Bobby Ellerbee
I wish the show was funnier.
Did Letterman do his show there?
And now each of those studios is dedicated to Lorne Michaels productions. Maybe they should just rename the whole RCA-GE-Comcast Building the Michaels Building and be done with it.
By the way, today (Thursday) is when they tape the “Maya & Marty” show for Tuesday air. Wish I was there.
This is the earliest photo I’ve shot of Studio 6A, taken in 1976; just 40 years ago! It’s a pic of the Tomorrow Show set:

Looks good, I now know why my Comcast bill is so high…
I watched “Maya & Marty” the other night. It was actually FUNNY! I was pleasantly surprised. Hope next week’s episode is just as good. Can’t wait to watch it.
Impressive.
Thank you so much Bobby and Dennis for these pictures. You feed my insatiable desire to be part of a crew on shows like that. Your pictorials are better than Playboy centerfold pictorials to me. Love’em. Thank you, thank you.
Maya and Marty are doing six episodes this summer. I predict that that will be it. It just looks a prime time version of “Saturday Night Live”.
