Three one hour shows in a day?  Impressive.  They must have it down to a science.

With 11 cameras there's plenty of content to throw together

There is some down time, with a break in between the shows. But the warm-up guy keeps the audience entertained. It takes about two hours to tape a one-hour show, assuming no major stopdowns. If you go to this. bring a sweater or jacket. The studio is ice-box cold.

I got tickets for the early morning shows, since I'm fortunate enough to live within walking distance of the studio.

I went to see the first show for the past two days. The studio feels warmer that in the past seasons, to me anyway. So without spoiling anything, here are the celebs:

1st show, Tuesday 10/10
Kenan Thompson, Niecy Nash, Thomas Lennon, Caroline Rhea, Mark Duplass, Constance Zimmer

1st show, Wednesday 10/11
Mario Cantone, Cheryl Hines, Adam Pally, Caroline Rhea, Neil deGrasse Tyson, Niecy Nash

Same format, same level of writing from last season, some funny moments on and off camera, several pickups with Alec, and Dumb Dora lives on. The warm-up guy is Chad, from L.A., who sounds "gayer than the Easter Bunny." - his own words. No air dates announced for these shows.

Neil deGrasse Tyson
I'm all the way here for this episode, whenever it airs.

/Him and Bill Nye on a panel would very likely be amazing

Celebs at the first taping for Friday, 10/13

Jack McBrayer, Christina Ricci, Ice T, Jane Krakowski, Tituss Burgess, Nikki Glazer.

Several retakes and pick-ups. Alec got tongue tied, and several promos were done for the 3rd season, though no dates were announced. Some of the answers were redone as one celeb in particular was using language considered too vulgar even for this show's standards.

Probably, considering four of the others did the show previously and Nikki Glaser's done To Tell the Truth.  Maybe Christina was channeling her inner Teri Copley.
