The "My Three Sons" filming technique is coming to a tv near you

"Hobbled" being the key word here.

Very good visual R2

OP, Brian Keith worked in the same manner on "Family Affair".

Family Affair did the same thing with Brian Keith. They were both produced by Don Feddersen. His son Greg was on Family Affair and other son Mike Minor was on Petticoat Junction.

Kathy Garver says the unusual filming of Family Affair was odd for her and Sebastian Cabot as they were both adults (she was 18), so Cabot and her had to be on set at 6am and often wouldn't leave till midnight. With Brian Keith's scenes shot first, then the two children had to have their scenes shot quickly as their time on camera was limited, they often had to say their lines reading to a set worker and then they would splice the scenes in.

She said she'd film a scene with Buffy and her part was read by a cigar smoking teamster would be cut out and that led to some odd times.

This is interesting. I wonder if it will affect performances? It must be expensive

“And the Emmy for Best Piece of Masking Tape Affixed to A C-Stand for Eyeline goes to...”

I do applaud those who are trying to create content. We will have to see how it is all hobbled together.

Don't we mean cobbled together?

I heard somewhere that Family Affair was filmed this way.

How was Family Affair filmed?

See R2

While I probably should have said cobbled, his graphic of what hobbled is makes more sense considering what we might see.

Pron and hobbled.

This has gotta be the worst year ever.

For most of us there still are plenty of good series to be found on all the streaming services or On demand on cable.

I'm gonna watch Family Affair and make myself some Peach Hobbler.

Why don't you watch Gimme, Gimme, Gimme or Birds of A Feather? These two old British sitcoms should be gay classics.

They don't have to do this. As R14 said, there are literally dozens of shows that sound interesting that many people haven't had a chance to watch. After years of peak television, we could all keep going on what's already been made for the next 5 years.

Gimme, Gimme, Gimme, was one of the worst bits of shit I have ever tried to watch.

If Birds of a feather is similar I am afraid.

Gimme, Gimme, Gimme was awesome. At times I hated watching it because it reminded me how shitty my life was. But I loved it as well and enjoyed the comedy from the start.

Isn't that how they apparently shot some of the last seasons of Desperate Housewives because everyone hated Terri Hatcher so much? She was green/blue screened in.

This sounds very familiar.

[quote]There will be no normal tv season next year but there may be some bits hobbled together like this.

Even beyond the networks, many of the actors themselves don't want to go in and do work traditionally.

When a crisis is so bad you have sports players who make millions of dollars a year taking a pass on playing to sit a year out there's a problem.

Whitney Houston will star in an all-hologram sitcom this Fall called "Nippy". She plays a famous star who buys a small Georgia town.

"What an innovative TV series filming technique that none of us would ever have thought of using!"

And now, bitches... I'm reading for my close-up!

R24 wasn't Will and Grace live audience...how could they do that?

We know the Good Wife did it with Archie and the cunt.
