# 1.03 "Moment of Truth":

Sable and "Randall" having coffee at the shopping mall was filmed at the Rodeo Collection, 421 North Rodeo Drive, Beverly Hills, CA. It was slightly updated since then, but is still there.

You also see this scene in Beverly Hills 90210, the same couple is walking there.

Jason running into Zach was filmed inside the Los Angeles City Hall (200 North Spring Street, L.A):

I think Zack's flashback was filmed at Paradise Cove Beach:

The scene with Jason and Sean was filmed at Marineland of the Pacific , which used to be located at 610 Palos Verdes Drive South, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA. The oceanarium no longer exists. It closed in 1987 already, and the property was redeveloped in the 2000's.

It seems they actually filmed the real interiors of the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery for the Colby Collection.

Bliss and Sean: I think this is Leo Carrillo State Beach.

While the establishing shot is from elsewhere, I think the lunch scene with Jason and Frankie was filmed at the Marina Del Rey Hotel at 13534 Bali Way, Marina Del Rey, CA.

@DexDexter1978 —

Yes, Spelling always reused footage from his previous shows and also from other productions, which he licensed from stock footage libraries. It's very common in the entertainment industry, but Spelling was notorious for overextending the use of stock shots because he tried to keep the budget for location shots down to a minimum.

As for the shot of the Rodeo Collection on Rode Drive, it was actually filmed for "The Colbys". I don't know who the lady in the screen grab is, but the gentleman is Gary Moerke, who worked as an extra in basically every L.A. based production during the 1980's and 1990's. He appeared in quite a number of episodes of "Dynasty" and "The Colbys", besides his work on "Falcon Crest", "Hart to Hart" and countless other TV shows and movies.

Also what i have seen once the reunion opening credits (Title card) Jeroen Krabbe is different then the original, he closes his mouth after smiling.
Witch is only a few sec longer.

"The legacy"
Cemetary (Penell ranch ??) + Hoyt's hotel
From November, 10 1986 to November 18, 1986

don't you think it's look like Gary's ranch in KL, in Simi Valley , especially the bridge and the pond ?

Update on # 1.01:

The motel where Miles and Fallon are staying is the Malibu Shores Motel at 23033 Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu CA. It's still recognizable if you know despite extensive remodeling.

Update on # 1.23:

Frankie and Jason's ride in the limo was filmed near the Great Western Forum in Inglewood, CA. The same shot was reused in # 2.18.

This is an interesting location - reminds me of a “Dynasty “ similar location shot from Season 8 and Season 9. In Season 8 it was used later in the Season when Blake called Alexis from his limo about Sean and then again in Season 9 when Dex Dexter and Sable were in a limo. Both shots are similar to the above and on a curved road - in one of them I seem to remember a bank also with red lettering at night. I wonder if this was shot on the same stretch.
