Last week no parking signs went up on each of 4 street blocks near our apartment for the filming of project: Unforgettable. Living in New York, I'm definitely used to seeing these bright multi-colored signs posted around, but never on more than 2 blocks or in Astoria. Needless to say, it peaked my interest (not so much J, who not only isn't so much into celebrities, but also not into 4 blocks worth of parking being taken!) so I ventured over after work last night to check out what all the commotion was about.
I have to admit I was a bit disappointed that the majority of the blocked streets were solely being used for trailers and electrical hookups - not surprising as this is often the case and typically all you see of a movie set. But I did see them filming and illuminating the night sky into what appeared to be broad daylight (I'm always amazed by that). And lots of NYPD cars with their emergency lights blinking. Turns out "Unforgettable" is a police homicide TV show!
Guess I'll have to check out this new show in a few months and see my neighborhood on camera :) Hopefully it's depicting Astoria in a good light!
