Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsAny news on what happens to the 30 Rock broadcasting? Letterman?
Are they going to go on generators and just ride it out? Will Letterman cancel shows or go w/o an audience? I know Broadway's dark. Just curious.

Jimmy Fallon said he's doing his show and Dave is still scheduled to tape too.
Stewart and Colbert canceled todays shows.
things may still change though for Fallon and Dave IMHO.

are camping out there over night. I believe most of these shows are taped/shot @ 30 Rock.

Jimmy Fallon also said they are still doing their show.
One program attempting to brave the storm is Late Show with David Letterman. While there will be no live audience today or tomorrow, the show, airing on CBS, will go on as planned, according to a show spokesman, with the featured guest Denzel Washington
Jimmy Fallon also said they are still doing their show.
We sent our audience home just to be safe. But we are doing our show tonight anyway. Should be fun. #LateNight
Everyone in tonight's studio audience gets a free Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream. #LateNight #wehave10peopleinourau instagr.am/p/RXu5QrPZ1n/
Midtown NYC is empty, but we are still doing a live show! @sethmeyers21, @padmalakshmi & @imaginedragons #La instagr.am/p/RXrsZQPZzD/
