Do you know when SVU takes a break for Christmas holidays? I’m gonna be in NY until mid January and was wondering if they film around then.

Reply

Lindsay December 2, 2010 at 6:59 am

They are off from the last week of December until usually mid January…at least that is how it has worked in the past.

SVU should be filming until December 17 and then break for the holidays. They should be back to work the week of the 3rd of January.

I’ve seen some paparazzi pics of Sam but haven’t heard of anyone actually meeting him. Sounds like they mostly film inside so maybe that makes it a bit more difficult.

Reply

Jenny December 2, 2010 at 10:19 pm

Yeah I went by there today and I saw the signs posted but saw nothing. NO camera trucks or anything. :(

Christine December 3, 2010 at 11:25 am

Reply

DJR December 2, 2010 at 2:06 pm

Right angle change their name to crippled is filming on hunington road behind the zoo in a neighborhood and Gian Mechanical Man starring jenna Fischer from the office is filming 18 more days in Michigan and tomorrow they will be inside of the Detroit zoo and so is there basecamp and crippled basecamp has signs and is in The Detroit zoo parking lot.

Reply

Christine December 2, 2010 at 8:01 pm

OK, thanks so much, I can see how that would be confusing! Thanks again for clearing that up!

Christine December 2, 2010 at 8:44 pm

a couple fyis for NYC from today that i forgot to add:
Man On A Ledge has been in a studio in Bethpage this week too, not sure if they are actually filming there or what’s going on since there are also signs at multiple locations in NYC. (Thanks Dan)

Also, someone said Nurse Jackie was in studio (and wanted to know why it wasn’t listed) – I’m not sure about that, I havne’t seen any casting calls for today or heard anything either way so I can’t really confirm.
