Goof in the pilot


Nothing earth-shattering here, but I found out this show was supposed to be set where I live (Norfolk/Newport News, VA). I found the pilot on Youtube and basically skimmed through to see if they made any references to this area. Was pleased to see they did a Norfolk-based newscast, with the weather and everything (http://tinyurl.com/2592q6p). Except, when they went back to the anchors (http://tinyurl.com/28fojat), the skyline in the background is Richmond, which is about 90 mins. northwest of Norfolk.

Thing is, the two cities are very separate from each other and have their own TV stations. I don't even think Norfolk can get Richmond stations or vice versa.

Anyways, it's all a moot point since they didn't use this region as the setting, and besides, it's a TV show. But I did get a kick out of such an error. Wonder if, had they used this area how many would've caught that...


Oh stewardess...I speak jive.
