Where Is the Ellen DeGeneres Show Taped?

The Ellen DeGeneres talk show is taped in in the Warner Brothers lot in Los Angeles, California. This lot is part of the studios in Hollywood, the famous suburb of Los Angeles, California. Los Angeles is also the location where Ellen and her staff write, create, and produce the show.

The show is based loosely on a typical “talk-show” format, with monologues, current events and social news.

• There are often live interviews with forerunners in the celebrity realm, which partly explains why the Ellen DeGeneres is taped in Los Angeles. Many celebrities are in Los Angeles, so it makes sense for Ellen to tape her show there.
• Ellen adds her own personal touch to the show she’s created by offering bits of her own life to be aired and publicly displayed.
• She often divulges information about her personal relationship with her partner, Portia DeRossi, and their life together at home. 

Besides being a talk show on daytime television, Ellen’s show has become a national sensation that has generated revenue for a vast number of different causes and charitable events, including over $10 million dollars being raised for the survivors of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans.

The show has earned over 30 daytime Emmy Awards in only eight seasons of broadcast television. The show covers topics from the hilarious to the serious, with musical guests being spotlighted so often that Ellen herself has even begun plans to create a record label of her own, Eleveneleven records.
