Ok! Whoo-hoo... Law and Order SVU are shooting at my building of residence. But to be totally honest, I don't know weather I should be excited, surprised, or depressed.
Yes it is exciting to see the whole set up and drama that goes with a shoot, (it is Law And Order SVU after all.) And just the chance to see burly Christopher Meloni in the flesh and in action... What a treat! unfortunately, I'll be at work at the time unless they're doing a night scene... then maybe I'll just make some excuse to trip over a cable or something, just at the right moment.
But take into account my neighborhood... should I be surprised that a scout decided on our location for a scene? How depressing is it to realize, that some scout found your neighborhood "perfect for a crime scene". This is not the first time that Law And Order have found my neighborhood appealing.
Yes, the truth is, my neighborhood has had it's fair share of the "dark side". Even today, tricks are treated, and "exchanges" made. But not to the degree as it was in the past, thank heavens. It's a much safer neighborhood now and slowly but surely, it will hopefully continue to do so and maybe one day, we'll get to a place where a scout will find the location... not so "perfect".
That said... my heart goes out to the people whose neighborhoods have been "abused" for CSI.
Well, they shoot tomorrow and Friday, so if anything is worth recording, I will add to this post.
