 ### Fixed
 
 - The red event banners are lit from the top down at night instead of reading as flat red cards.
+- Hollywood and the TV Studio got the same queue treatment, and the TV Studio's props no longer sit

 - The Joke Shop has a readable queue: a velvet rope line leading to the check-in podium, a thicker

 - Street lamps now throw a warm pool on the pavement instead of dimly washing the whole walkway.

+Hollywood had one stanchion and one barricade, which read as stray street furniture; it now has the
+same three-post rope line into the check-in podium, with a barricade on the curb.

+The TV Studio had **never been validated**: `placement_problems()` was only applied to the Joke Shop
+in its test, and running it on the studio reported six violations — three props at z 4.2–4.4 sat
