  1. I herd from a very reliable source that the only two cast members of gossip girl that are going to be there are lilly and cece again finishing up their scene

  2. O man….Baster at Bedford and North 6th! I love North 6th!! Great area, great restaurants… id so be there if it werent for a softball smashing my back windshield. 🙁

    hopefully theyll be there the next day too. are the signs there just for tomorrow (Tuesday)?

  3. Does anyone know more specifically where SVU will be exactly? I don’t know my way around the city at all really and am confused about where I
    Need to go… 🙁

    • type 5th avenue and w 121st street into goole maps, that’s usually pretty helpful.. then go to get directions and you can do it by car, walking or transport depending on where you’re coming from…I usually find it pretty easy to find where I’m going by using that, hope it helps you a little bit!

        • not a lot… the finale airs late this year, June 2nd. there’s 22 episodes this season. tonight they are showing the episode “Hell” and “Hell” episode 17. then “baggage” is episode 18, then “selfish” is episode 19 (this is the one that they just recently filmed with hilary duff). Not much left 🙁

  4. ahhh.. can we get information by tonight on who exactly is going to be at the gg location tomorrow? pleeeeeease.. i don’t want to go out to the city for no reason. if chace is going to be there i’ll be reallllllyyyyy happy!

  5. There are signs (and trailers!) all along 58th Street between 8th Avenue and 6th Avenue for Did You Hear About The Morgans? I think the signs said they would be there all week, and the trailers I caught glimpses of were labeled “Director” (pretty obvious, lol), “Paul”, and “US Marshall Laskey” (? I’m not sure if that’s totally correct, but it’s the best I can remember).

      • The set is right next to City Hall. It was such a nice day out that I figured I’d take advantage of being in the sun before I have to lock myself in and study.

  6. yeah, thats right by my job but i dont work today but i’ll def head on over if someone goods there…so someone plz update on who’s gonna be there!! i mean GG lol

  7. is wednesday the last day of filming for gg or will they be filming thursday too? cuz i think il be able to go into the city thursday just hope its not too late!!

    • ahh thats so annoying!
      the person that said everyone was gonna be there corrected themselves and said it was for friday so you’re probably right.
      i really hope by some miracle some of the younger cast turn up for no reason haha

  8. I saw a casting call for extras for GG and it specifically stated March 30th and 31st would be prom scenes. Good luck to all who go!

  9. Two updates:

    Did You Hear About The Morgans: Trailers, lots-o-equipment and LoadIn/Holding signs on Lexington between 52nd and 54th and the surrounding area (NYC)

    Bored To Death: Trailers and equipment trucks on 55th between Park and Lexington (NYC) (I think it was Park and Lex…might have been Lex and 3rd?).

    I’m going to start getting annoyed that I see all this stuff every morning on the way to work but can’t stop and gawk because I have to continue on to work!! 😉

    • Does anybody know if there are going to be on Lexington between 52nd and 54th street or are there going to be at 58th street between 8 ave 6 ave can you let me know.

  10. Maybe I’m wrong I don’t know but the asstiant told me that its going to be the older crowd maybe early in the morning there’s going to be the younger crowd bc I’m going like late afternoon

  11. GG trailers are set up on reade st. I passed by but didn’t see anyone so I couldn’t ask who was on set. If anyone wants to meet up I think I will be here all morning!

    • Hey kladys

      how many trailers are there right now? are you gonna be there all day cause I’m around the city right now..well down by park ave..

      I so wanna meet em, or get their pics but iono..mad nervous. I don’t wanna feel like I’m stalkin em O_o.

  12. Just saw chace and ed doing a walk thru of their lines. I asked one of the guys if the whole cast would be here, he said no.

    • hey I’m probably going to be there around 1 too. is there any point in going? I”m going to be in Soho anyway so it’s pretty close. But if noone’s really there I don’t know….

  13. Just left SVU site– Chris Meloni was filming on a vacant lot at 124th and Lennox. Guy on the film crew said Ice T was scheduled to film at Marcus Garvey Park at 1:30 today. No Mariska today.

    • Mariska was there when I got there about 5pm. Only Mariska and Chris were there today. When I left around 7pm they were waiting for it to get dark so that they could do a night shoot. I asked one of the PA’s where they would be tomorrow and he said in studio.

  14. I just went by City Hall and they are shooting scenes for GG. I have no idea who is in it ad I do not watch it.Also crew said they were indoors in a bank nearby shooting indoors. Also ,I did go by Coney Island yesterday and lkooked for trailers etc foir SALT, but did not see anything. Any idea if they will be down in Coney Island soon?

  15. what train do you take to get to the BASTER set? thanks! also, anyone know if there doing exterios, and what time…thanks!

  16. I just went down to the set and walked past Leighton Meester and Blake Lively on the way to their trailers, I didn’t see anyone else at the time.

  17. Do you guys know what time Blake and Leighton will be filming until today? I’m planning to check out the set @ 5:45. Do you think Blake or Leighton will still be around then?

  18. oh and if anyone wants to go – the easiest way to get there is the green line 4,5,6 trains to Brooklyn Bridge City Hall. It puts you right at Centre and Chambers

    oh and just a note: Bow Wow is signing autographs at 5pm at JR Music World on Park Row.

    (its walking distance from the gg set)

  19. Events on Long Island:

    Alyssa Milano (“Who’s the Boss” and “Charmed”) is signing copies of “Safe at home Confessions of a Baseball Fanatic” at 7pm, Book Revue, 313 New York Ave tomorrow (Wednesday 4/1)

    Martha Stewart will be making an appearance to sign copies of “Martha Stewart’s Encyclopeida of Crafts” at noon, Michael’s Arts & Crafts, 1280 Corporate Dr., Westbury
    friday 4/3

  20. not to be repetitive or anything, I was @ gg and saw penn, leighton and blake getting ready, lots of extras all dressed up and I saw them setting up for an outdoor shot which they said would start after dark

  21. I went to the GG set late in the afternoon and saw Chace walking out of the building where they were having the prom and he was walking to his trailer. I heard from pepl on the set that they will be filming there again tomorrow like all day. Pretty much everyone will be there tomorrow too. 🙂

  22. gossip girl will be at chambers again together. That’s what the security guard said. But it will be a rainstorm. I am going to check it out and comment in the morning. We went to howl today and saw james franco. We got a picture!

  23. ahh damn. i was going to go, but no one to go with. i KNEW i should’ve gone!
    hopefully i can see him friday…they’ll be filming all week yeah?

  24. cool thanks. i went last friday and saw a sign that said they were filming today – 4/3 soo hopefully they are =] i was just double checking.

  25. What time will all of the actors be on set 2mw? If I went around 1pm-ish would I get to see some of them? I want to take my gf as she is visiting NY and loves the show and from what I’ve read it appears to be the last day of filming. Thanks.

    • it said on the sign were the trucks for gg will be there tomorrow till 6:00 Am till 10:00 PM if any one knows what block please tell me ?

      • sringer, they will be at the same place tomorrow. Chambers St between Elk St and Broadway. They’re filming at the former Emigrant Industrial Savings Bank (51 Chambers St.), which is now an NYC gov municipal building office. The trailers are on side streets like Reade St.

  26. hey i was at the gossip girl set around 1-2 today and i saw penn, blake and leighton walking to a trailer. but when i came back at around 5 nothing was happening. then i came at 7:40 and stayed for a bit over a half an hour and they were setting up and there were a MILLION extras in prom dresses and tuxes there but no stars. we went to leightons trailer but she wasnt coming ourt so we just left. I wish they hadn’t filmed so late- i would have stayed longer!

    Are they filming tomorrow?

  27. bawsoot and haylie, GG will be filming tomorrow. I’m not sure what time all the actors will be there, but I heard that they will all be there and I saw the paper with the list of actors names cuz one of the set members showed me.

    haylie, when you went at 7:40 tonight, they were probably setting up and all the main actors were prob in their trailers getting ready or taking a break cuz everyone is supposed to be there until 1 AM tonight from what I heard. They’re filming an outdoor scene tonight and I saw 2 limos outside.

    Tomorrow is supposed to be their last day of filming for this season. Then they will be taking a 2-3 month break and will resume filming over the summer again.

    • yeah i saw the limos and the place with the extras all set up. I wish i could’ve stayed longer- the guy said it would start pretty soon (1/2 hour or so) but we really had to get home. will everyone be thre tomorrow?

      I hope i can go!

  28. I went to the GG set today and saw both Blake and Leighton leaving their trailers. They were shooting a scene outside on the steps of a building on Chambers Street, right before Centre–both of them together, it was amazing! The crew let’s you stand across the street and watch as long as you’re quiet and have your flash off. Also, one of the crew members said that they would be filming again tomorrow since they didn’t have enough time today

          • Pretty much the whole cast will be there. They should be filming at the same place tomorrow on Chambers St. I listed the info above in a comment I posted earlier so you can check that. I’ll post a comment tomorrow when I go to the set. I’m sure other people will be posting comments about it too.

  29. This site is awesomeee! i drove to nyc from ct yesterday to see law and order ci filmed and walked onto the set before the roped the street off.
    i think they thought i had lines until i pulled out my camera…then they made me go behind the tape. lol
