You have questions. I have some answers.Was the scene with Midge and Lenny Bruce in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel really filmed at Carnegie Hall? I am so sorry there will only be one more season of the show. What a terrific cast.The Amazon Prime Video show enjoyed a three-day shoot in the real Carnegie Hall, the New York Daily News reported last June. That was as the hall was coming out of its COVID-related shutdown, so Maisel did not have to work around concert performances. And the Daily News noted that Carnegies fastidious upkeep and devotion to its history meant that the show did not have to do much to make it look the way it did in the early 60s period of that Maisel episode, which was finale of the eight-episode fourth season. A fifth season will indeed be the shows last. And while I understand your enthusiasm about the cast, I am among those who found Season 4 disappointing.

I am wondering about American Ninja Warrior. It used to be on an NBC Sports channel and suddenly the channel and show disappeared.

NBCUniversal shut down its sport channel NBCSN at the end of last year and has moved its programming to other services including USA Network and to the companion streaming service Peacock. When the decision to drop NBCSN was announced a little over a year ago, the Wall Street Journal noted that the sports channel had struggled competitively against other sports operations. USA was also losing audience, so by putting popular sports on the USA channel, NBCUniversal is hoping it can increase its value of USA Network to distributors. Having more sports on USA will also make it a more viable competitor to TBS and TNT which also carry a mix of entertainment and sports, the paper said.

As for American Ninja Warrior, that was being shown in repeats on NBCSN with episodes airing first on the NBC broadcast network. A new season, the shows 14th, is in the works. And there are repeats out there, including on Peacock and the Bally Sports channels.

I am an avid William Petersen fan and watched every episode of the original CSI: Crime Scene Investigation in which he starred. Last season he returned in CSI: Vegas but now it seems to have disappeared. What happened, and will it return?

CSi: Vegas, which blended some veterans of the old series with a new cast, made 10 episodes of its first season and aired them all. (As I have said before, TV series seasons vary considerably in the number of episodes.) The show has been picked up for a second run to air sometime in the 2022-23 season. But Petersen, who reprised his role of Gil Grissom on the new series, reportedly signed on only for the first season as an actor and will not be on camera in the second season (he remains an executive producer). In addition, Jorja Fox who played Grissoms colleague and lover will not be back for the second season either. As Grissom goes, she tweeted, so goes Sara.
