Located at Los Angeles's Fairfax Country, The Grove is an entertainment complex. The complex fills space previously occupied by an orchard and nursery. The developers began demolition of an antiques alley and other older buildings on Third Street behind CBS Television City, and broke ground for the new mall in 1999. There was some controversy over potentially increasing traffic in a busy Los Angeles neighborhood that already offered several other shopping venues, including the Beverly Center. The Grove opened in 2002 and has been an extremely popular outdoor mall ever since.

The Warner Bros. tabloid television news program Extra is also taped in the complex, usually in front of the animated fountains. Extra is bringing its fans closer to Hollywood's biggest stars, unlike any other news entertainment program ever before! They're broadcasting coast-to-coast as Mario Lopez and Maria Menounos go on location, giving viewers the latest breaking entertainment news from across the country.

The show is taped (Monday - Friday) between 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM PDT at The Grove, with Mario and Maria talking to all the stars and interacting with fans.
