The Los Angeles wildfires have had devastating repercussions as they continue to burn across Southern California. Amid the natural disaster, a wide variety of TV shows have halted production until further notice. The raging fires have also affected several Hollywood award shows, including the 2025 Critics Choice Awards.
According to CBS News, fires across the Los Angeles area have killed at least 16 people and destroyed more than 12,000 structures as of January 12, 2025. More than 150,000 people have been evacuated from the Pacific Palisades and neighboring areas in Los Angeles County. According to PEOPLE, several ABC shows, including Grey’s Anatomy, Doctor Odyssey, and Jimmy Kimmel Live!, had to press pause on production from January 8, 2025. CBS has also followed suit, wrapping up its production in LA, including NCIS, which is filmed in Santa Clarita, NCIS: Origins, which is filmed on the Paramount lot, and the late-night show After Midnight. The cult-classic reality competition The Price Is Right also had to halt production until further notice.
Variety reported on the same day that NBC Universal suspended production for Hacks, Loot, Ted, Suits: L.A. and Happy’s Place. Movies were unaffected since the feature films were being shot outside LA. As of the last update, Fallout Season 2, which was being filmed in the Santa Clarita area, had halted production as well until Friday, January 10, 2025. Other CBS shows that hated production include Poppa’s House and The Neighborhood. The Warner Bros. studio lot in Burbank had to halt productions like Abbott Elementary, All-American, The Pitt, and Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage due to close proximity to the fires.
