If Molly's in Philly, she's screwed. Just plain screwed.

Kinda sorta..probably did scene shots of the skyline in Philly, but is actually shooting in LA somewhere making it seem like they are in Philly.

It's still cool though! smile.gif

If the Kidd Chris show has taught me anything the residents of Philly will throw snowballs at the Nightmare Man.
Leek
Okay, I'll admit. New York dropped the ball when we housed Sylar.


But you guys have "The Nightmare Man"

And he has Molly, like, trapped.


So thats worse.

We win .

Hey now... drunken Santa *totally* deserved it.


And yeah, I agree with an earlier poster - it's probably just exterior shots. I didn't hear anything about any scenes being filmed here.

Yeah Philly! Our Phillies bombed out of playoffs, but still got the Eagles going. ...Kind of?


And I really wish they had somehow shot some scenes around here. But yeah, that skyline's about as close as we're gonna get. Doh! I will laugh if they use LA landmarks for locations (ala the red helix in 'NY's" Kirby Plaza). Hope they get some street names right at least.

I thought I saw 622 on the map Molly was using. Have to check the ep again.

And what do you think? Guessing nightmare guy's in North Philly? Looked like a converted factory building, but that could be a number of places, including near University City too.

its funny cuz the footage they showed of philly was wrong since they started building the new comcast building

Definitely should have used newer film of the skyline..although I was pretty happy to see that the show is coming to town, even if it's only in the storyline and not filmed here. Exposure of the city is a good thing. Who knows, I see small film crews about once a week downtown, so maybe they will be coming to the city to film a bit.

As for nightmare-man, well, it would fit in nicely with what we have going on in the city.
Gelert
Yay, Philadelphia! wub.gif I love that city! I hope they stay there for a few episodes..

It was 611 on the map which would make sense, my wife and I were trying to figure out where the apartment was too. It seemed to me that it was either Universtiy City or South Philly either way the picture of the apartment they used definately was Philly-esque. If it's North Philly the Nightmare Man is more badass than I thought to set up shop there, maybe he'll get gunned down in a drive by b4 Matt and Mo can show up to confront him god knows that happens everyday in that area.

I'm really excited for them to be in Philly even if they just use stock shots but it would have been great to see Matt and Mo at Geno's or Pat's or maybe South Street.
roxygr1223
yea where was that place..i wanna go find it!

Don't worry it doesn't take the Nightmare man to squash the hopes of Phillies/Eagles fans wink.gif
delusions_of_grandeur
Just for grins I did a Google Maps of (North) Philly where Rte 611 is.

.

If anybody can get a screen capture of the map that Molly used, we can probably compare and see exactly where in Philly the Nightmare Man is staying. My guess is also somewhere in North Philly.

And here is a map of Route 611 near Market Street.

lol, lucky philly kids.
If Heroes ever comes to Hawaii [the show, not the people, all though the people here would be nice] I would bawl in pain.
Heroes in Hawaii would be an ugly ugly thing. Trust me.
MaximumPotential
My family's from Pittsburgh, and there is an automatic grudge against Philly for all of us. When there was the big reveal about him being in Philly my mom was like "it figures".

Makes sense to me...whether the apartment is actually there in real life...haven't a clue!
commongiga
Woo! Philly!

So he's in South Philly. Which means he is either Italian or a lover of Pat's cheesesteaks.
