What a great place. The Johnny Carson theater is the best. I like how they integrated the center into the old rail station, even kept the seats! Tons of interactive immersive and techy stuff into the art of comedy. Blue room if you are an adult not to be missed. Great artfacts like the tonight show rolodex of stars and Marmaduke cartoonist studio. Would go again.

It was well worth the time spending at the Center 4.5hrs. We would do it again. There is so much to see and I know we didn’t see everything or participate in all the activities.

I liked the comedy cafe, the TV lounge and the movie theater. I especially liked the way that the exhibits were personalized to our tastes.
