This Wednesday the cast and crew of "Law and Order" descended upon Flatbush to film scenes for the second episode of the upcoming season. 1203 Albemarle Road (left) was the setting for a scene in Great Neck, Long Island. The scene sounded kind of boring- something about a character who was deciding on a new method of forensic testing I'm already asleep. The real action of the day was filmed a few blocks north in Prosepect Park, complete with a dead body and probably one or two unassuming joggers. Just around the corner from Westminster and Albermarle, the show filmed an exterior scene in front of 147 Rugby Road (between Albemarle and Beverley). Even though they were only a couple blocks east of the home in "Great Neck", this shot was supposed to take place in Nyack, Long Island.We spotted stars Anthony Anderson (The Departed, Harold and Kumar) and Jeremy Sisto (Thirteen, "Six Feet Under") walking down Westminster Road on the way from their trailers on Church Avenue to the set, stopping for a quick bite to eat at the crafts service table along the way.
Be on the lookout for the Flatbush episode of "Law and Order" when the show returns with new episodes in 2009.

We've had L&O film here in our house twice, most recently last spring; the crew are awfully nice folks. Funny thing is, they film around here so often that they say locals actually get fed up with them; they seemed actually grateful that we were 'film-friendly.' (Heck,yes, they were paying us!)
thanks brenda!

i love this part:
"Many of us with big old Victorian houses get regularly 'scouted' for movie, TV and commercial locations off the street. They love the roomy interiors, I was told, because they can pull a focus and have a character enter and exit from off-camera, without cutting away to another shot."
