McKinney, Tx


So, yeah, they used the house my wife grew up in for some of the exterior house shots. You know the scene where the group of people chase Benji down the back the steps of the house? Those steps lead up to the laundry room. It's pretty cool and I'm practically related to Hollywood greatness because I've been to that house a number of times and because we had our reception back there. You should all be jealous.

Wow. And I mean that sincerely.

I stepped in some of Benji's poo in my bare feet so, I'm MORE related to Hollywood greatness than YOU! YOU should all be MORE jealous of ME!

Yeah, I drive past that house almost everyday. It's pretty cool how McKinney has been realted to Hollywood. Some scenes of the TV show Prison Break have been filmed in McKinney too.

I live on the western side of McKinney, like almost in Frisco, but I go to McKinney high school. I wonder what else McKinney has been incorporated into TV with.

reply

America's Most Wanted.

Wow--I live in McKinney on the west side too. I'm not sure if you're able to disclose the address of the home, but that'd be pretty cool to drive by and see it.

Yeah I've seen the house in McKinney, I drove around it and took a look at it. The stairs are no longer there, as well as the fence Benji jumps through.

I finally found the address for the home off wikipedia and drove by the house over Christmas. Here's the website for the home which currently serves as a bed & breakfast.
