What inspired this search, you ask? I was binging the Hulu series Only Murders in the Building this past weekend. There was a scene where Mabel, one of the main characters, travels to Teaneck, NJ with the hopes of finding a clue about who killed Tim Kono. I was curious to see if the show actually filmed in Jersey. Spoiler alert: it did not.

Did you know that you can search IMDB.com by filming location? You'll go down a rabbit hole that will keep you busy for hours. And that's exactly what I did.

As I mentioned earlier, there are plenty of other amazing shows that did film here. And with news of Netflix potentially building a studio in The Garden State, there may be many more shows to come. Side note: how cool would it be to be an extra in those shows?

If you're as much of a TV geek as I am, you'll be so excited to see how many incredible shows were shot here. You may even be inspired to go back and rewatch them (I know I am).

Do you see any of your favorites on the list?
