The focal point has been a series of faux houses along "Blondie Street", and house with a pool across the street, that have been used in the exterior and some interior filming of a variety of movies and television programs. Such shows filmed there are WandaVision (2021); Lethal Weapon (1987); I Dream of Jeannie (1965); Partridge Family (1970); Dennis the Menace (1959); National Lampoon Christmas Vacation (1989); Bewitched (1964); Blondie (1956); Father Knows Best (1954); etc. The houses and "Blondie Street" are slated for demolition late 2023 and eventually replaced by a series of large sound stage buildings, offices and parking lots.
The Warner Bros. Ranch is a movie ranch located at 411 North Hollywood Way in Burbank, California. Opened in the 1930s, it was used as the backdrop for films and television shows by Columbia Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures. The majority of the houses and buildings were originally just facades; Columbia owned and operated the Ranch from 1934 to 1971, when they merged with Warner Bros. Studios Burbank. When Warner Bros. Entertainment became sole owner of the Lot in 1989, all of the structures were enclosed, with some getting a full interior.

The world's first martial arts history museum is a cultural and educational look at how Asian history became part of American history through the martial arts. The museum takes about 40 minutes to visit.
Completed in 1940, this expansive lot serves as the corporate headquarters for The Walt Disney Company and contains its primary film, television, and animation production facilities. Tours of the studio are not available to the general public. There are only two ways to tour the studio if you are not employed there: one is through Adventures by Disney, which offers a tour of the studio as part of their pricey six-day, five-night Southern California tour package. A far less expensive way is by becoming a member of D23, Disney's official fan club, which occasionally offers member-exclusive tours of the studio.
Very attractive place, but don't forget to visit the ice rink.
