Lost Girl Base Camp Port Credit Saddington Park
Today, the telltale red cones were set up along Mississauga Road, near the Legion (Lunch Room) and at Indian Road, a few kilometers north.Canadian developed and produced by Prodigy Pictures, the action-fantasy series Lost Girl is scheduled to air in Fall 2010 on Showcase channel.

According to a news release, "The story revolves around a Succubus named Bo, played by New Brunswicker Anna Silk. [Bo] attempts to contain her succubus needs, help those in need, and discover her true past."Now I don't know about you, but that's a neat word: Succubus. Turns out there's an April, 1999 episode of South Park entitled Succubus, tho I'm not a fan, so wouldn't have known. Google it and check the Wiki info: I'm not going to get into it on my Port Credit / travel blog :-) but I may turn to the Showcase channel more often to see just what types of programs they air.
Say the name 'Anna Silk' and most of us will say, "Who?" Say 'the woman who was a flight attendant screaming at her passengers in the Nicoderm commercial', and we say, "Oh yeah - her!"
Executive producers are Jay Firestone, Paul Rapovksi, Plato Fountidakis, Michelle Lovretta and Peter Mohan. Michelle Lovretta is also the creator / writer for the series that is co-written by Peter Mohan. Series producer is Wanda Chaffey.
For information about Lost Girl or Anna Silk, or the cast, et al, see this site.
Today, there was another film shoot west of Holy Name of Mary school on Mississauga Road north of the QEW. Again, those telltale red traffic cones plus a few green cones at the highway exit ramp marked the spot. This area along Mississauga Road is a location for the television series Little Mosque on the Prairie.
Though film shoots tend to disrupt local traffic a little, no one seems to mind. It's nice to be so popular with the movie/telvision biz and it gets Toronto-philes out of the city so they can see how gorgeous Port Credit is!
And with base camp located in Saddington Park, there's a reassuring view of downtown Toronto across the lake.
