Watch the "V" Trailer

"V - Pilot" on ABC Nov. 3rd!

Of course, scenes of this remake of the 1980's series were filmed in our Pendrell Suites Star Stay Three--it's the suite with green walls.

Then, the characters rush outside, stand at the front of Pendrell Suites and stare up at this gigantic spaceship hovering above the building.

(Imagine what Mulder would tell Scully: "Didn't I tell you...")

Here's the part of the set in Star Stay three--those bookcases tumble over:

GERMAN TV TAKES TOUR

On Monday, after NBC had departed Pendrell Suites, we met with the German Television station who has the broadcast rights for the 2010 Winter Olympics.

They were interested in "Hollywood North" and, while we did not shoot, they experienced Pendrell Suites, the pictures, memorabilia and grandeur.

Then they were treated to a Vancouver Back lot tour so they could plan for filming in early for stories for the Olympics.

With 10,000 press expected in Vancouver for the 2010 Olympics, we expect to be busy with reporters, etc.

NBC NIGHTLY NEWS WITH BRIAN WILLIAMS VISITS US!

Last week, NBC Nightly News Producer Amber Payne stayed with us at Pendrell Suites.

Then, with London-based Correspondent Dawna Friesen--who reports for NBC's "Nightly News with Brian Williams," "Today" and MSNBC, the network's 24-hour news and information cable network--we filmed for stories on the Pendrell Suites Set Tour as well as the Vancouver Back lot tour!

Meanwhile, the NBC people visited Grouse Mountain, where the "Today" show will broadcast during the 2010 Winter Olympics and other Vancouver spots.
