Our first morning there we got up bright and early and went across the street to "Good Morning America". We waited in line and were part of the group that was taken inside for part of the taping. They took us along with about 15 other people back outside at one point to tape the weather and they ended up getting me on T.V. in the background. My kids were so thrilled to see me. A couple from "Dancing With The Stars" was there promoting their new book. My mom really likes that show so that was fun for her. At the end, they moved everyone through like cattle to take a picture with Diane Sawyer(not really a fan of hers!). She stood there like some New York landmark. I thought it was kind of funny!!
Regis is the man!!! We didn't have much luck in the t.v. show department this time. I requested tickets to everything and got nothing. So we went to "Live w/ Regis and Kelly" and stood in stand-by. Unfortunately that day they did not take any stand by people at all. But....we got to see Tony Bennett, Kelly Ripa and Regis all come through the side door. And then we heard Tony Bennett rehearsing.
Trying still to have a NYC t.v. experience we walked a few blocks to where they tape "The View". Their stand-by line was just forming. We stood in line and again they didn't take any stand-by people. Oh well....don't really like "The View" anyway. Atleast Rosie isn't on there anymore. I probably wouldn't have even tried stand-by if she were there.
My all time favorite NY show is Dave Letterman. Of course, I tried to get tickets but no luck. We tried their stand-by option which is a little bit different then everyone elses. You call in the day of the show and hope that you get through in time. No Luck!! So the day before we were leaving we were in that area so we stopped by the theater to take a couple of pictures. We discovered another trick for getting tickets. There were people in the lobby that would put your name in another lottery for tickets. They said that you are more likely to get tickets that way because not too many people know about this option. Unfortunately, we were leaving the next day and they were doing tickets for the next week. I couldn't believe it! If I had of known, we could have gone over there when we were first in town. Next time!!!
