I remember once when I was going to visit a friend in the hospital years ago in Covington and stumbled over the crew to In the heat of the night.  There wasn't a lot of filming in GA in those days, but that has obviously changed.

Good Thursday morning Thom Abbott -

Great to hear Atlanta has been spotted by Hollywood.  I know movies and TV shows shooting in Albuquerque brings great revenue to our area.  Always a welcomed thing.

It's not unusual to run into detours for filming in D.C.

Kind of funny that a series named Quantico is filming so far south of it's actual location.  But I can see why.  Georgia is very lush and green, which is one of the things I love about my home state of Virginia.
