Production
Even though Anchorman is set in San Diego, the real San Diego is only seen in brief aerial shots—modern shots that include many buildings in downtown San Diego which were not yet built in the 1970s. According to the official production notes and "making of" documentary (both included on the DVD), Anchorman was actually filmed in Los Angeles, Glendale, and Long Beach on sets which were made to look like San Diego in the 1970s. Notably, Los Angeles, Glendale, and Long Beach are in the studio zone, while San Diego is not.
