A discussion at QuizBusters prompted this question. We just finished our season, and the station producers are quite proud of themselves at getting the entire schedule of 63 shows (due to some forfeits, we only ended up taping 61) done in a little over two months. We taped four shows a night every Tuesday, and also on alternate Mondays. And while that's a decent pace, I told them that in the real world, there were producers who worked a LOT faster than that.
I know there are stories of knocking off entire seasons of 26-30 shows for weekly syndicated series over the course of a weekend. But I wondered if anybody know of a condensed taping schedule for a 65-episode (13 week) daily series, which would probably more closely resemble our production schedule for comparison purposes.
