*At the MGM Soundstage 1 where MMC was filmed, 22 episodes, in addition to a 2-hr pilot, of Tarzan are being
filmed.  Tours are currently being conducted on that soundstage, because the crew is on hiatus.  The only part of MMC that remains on the soundstage is a bit of color on the floor.  However, outside the soundstage, the large MMC logo sign remains.

*Soundstage 2 is currently housing an airplane, and Soundstage 3 is being used to film the news program called "Later Today."
(which isn't airing yet)
