[QUOTE="TJP, post: 377228, member: 5151"] Update on # 1.01 Pilot - unused footage: Here's an interesting tidbit: This screen grab is from "Cheers" # 3.02 "Rebound" - Part 2: In this episode, a character has flashbacks and also presents videos from the past. One of them includes this shot... It is actually a shot photographed for the pilot of "Flamingo Road". I think it was never used in the series, so Lorimar did the usual thing with "superfluous" footage — they added it to a stock footage library to make some money by licensing the footage to other productions, and "Cheers" apparently paid for it. The shot (with appropriate set dressing for "Flamingo Road's" Truro — a prop Lorimar installed) was filmed on West Bonita Avenue in San Dimas, CA. The camera was placed on West Bonita (facing east on that street) at the intersection with Monte Vista Avenue.
