5m 31s
Although NBC has several impressive studios in Paris, including the primetime and daytime studios, more live content than ever originates from Stamford’s robust complement of studios. In this behind the scenes interview, NBCUniversal VP of Studio Operations Tom Popple takes SVG behind the scenes at NBC Olympics’ studios in Stamford, CT during the Paris 2024 Games.
Studio 1, usually the home of Football Night in America and Golf Central, has been split to serve the end of the West Coast daytime broadcast (6–9 p.m. ET) and Live From golf coverage. Studio 2, handling USA Network’s 24/7 coverage, has three eight-hour shifts per day. Studio 3, a new state-of-the-art facility normally housing NBC’s Premier League coverage, serves Gold Zone (5 a.m.–5 p.m.), and Studio 7 is home to E! and CNBC Olympics coverage. Meanwhile, Studio 6 is dormant but is available should any issues arise with the other facilities.
