spatchHere's another great blast from the past: NBC's Studio 8H -- the world's largest broadcasting studio. At least, it was the largest in the 1930s.
Does "Studio 8H" sound familiar to you, though? It just might -- it's been the home of Saturday Night Live since the show's debut. (The studio had actually fallen into disuse by the mid-70s as did Rockefeller Center as a whole for television production; when Howard Shore requested a music stand, the NBC crew gave him Toscanini's old podium.)
