Yet another show set in Chicago but filmed somewhere else. When will we Chicago actors get some love???

It is filmed "elsewhere" because that's where the crew and production companies are located.

Hint: go west, young man.

I understand that...but it's frustrating that this happens all the time. There are production facilities and actors in Chicago. A lot of times they will film location shots here and then film in L.A. Sometimes they cast day player roles here in Chicago and cast the larger parts in L.A. (even if they do shoot it here). The "hint" is useless as moving to L.A. is not something that should be done on a whim. I get work here in Chicago but it's just disheartening when this happens as often as it does.

PS: Thanks to all the productions that do chose to film in Chi-town!!

Also not believable as being Chicago since one of the characters mentions Jack-in-the-box. And anyone from Chicago knows there are no Jack-in-the-box restaurants in Illinois.
