Probably more because they look at how much dollars and hassle it would cost to film in NY, compared to the (relatively) cheaper Toronto.
- blitzar 2y agoMost likely production tax credits. "The Ontario Film & Television Tax Credit is a 35% refundable tax credit on Ontario labour for film and television productions by Ontario-based Canadian controlled companies for productions shot in Toronto, Ontario."
- walrus01 2y agoSame general reason why a lot of film/tv production is done in the state of GA now, which decided to compete with California, Vancouver and Toronto to attract productions.
- OJFord 2y agoI'm not saying they should film in NY, I meant the lack of care to use less recognisable bits or remove them digitally etc. - that they think 'we can't film in NYC, people will recognise it, and this isn't set in NYC' - not that they were trying to film NYC and should do it in NYC. (But I realise now I made that confusing with the Suits example.)
