MTV’s “Ain’t That America” taping on W 53rd St

17 October 2013 11:44pm

Aren’t we lucky: looks like another show has chosen the neighborhood to film their series. MTV’s “Ain’t That America”, some form of comedy video clip show, is setting up on W 53rd St, halfway between 9th & 10th Avenues, to film their second season:

The set will be filmed inside the mysterious black warehouse-​like building on W 54th St, which continues through to another building (probably the Chelsea Broadcast Center) for the entrance on 53rd, and crews have been unloading parts for the assumedly-​elaborate studio:

The studio will be set up for a few weeks until some time in early-​November. If you just can’t contain your excitement at the though of possibly witnessing an MTV show in person, you’re in luck: tickets are available for plenty of the tapings.

This marks the second show to film a season in the area in recent months. Throughout September, The Million Second Quiz filmed in the empty building on the corner of 41st & 11th, so this could be the beginning of a trend.
