 Since 1908, more than 240 feature films containing scenes in Central Park have been released, making it the most filmed public park in the world. In addition, countless episodes of television series are filmed in Central Park. An alarming number of murders and other unspeakable crimes featured in Law and Order and its various spin-offs seem to take place in the Park. Viewers who are familiar with the Park can often recognize a bridge, a landscape, or a monument. Other shows that like to use the Park include Saturday Night Live, Sesame Street, 30 Rock, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, Elimidate, Six Degrees, Kidnapped, The Apprentice, Project Runway, and Will and Grace. The Food Network, Discovery and Animal Planet channels often film in the Park. And, of course, the major networks love the Park; both NBC and ABC have made and aired special series highlighting the Conservancy and its work in the Park. PBS filmed A Walk Through Central Park, featuring David Hartman and historian Barry Lewis. HBO’s mini-series, Angels in America, began and ended with the Angel of the Waters at Bethesda Terrace. Its enormously popular series Sex and the City used Central Park in many episodes. The Park is also one of New York City’s top locations for commercials, documentaries, and photo shoots.
