California Flag Flies on Old Courthouse!
The Lifetime TV show, “Drop Dead Diva” is currently filming their first episode at the Old Courthouse on the Square in downtown Decatur. The crew first visited Decatur last September and filmed the pilot. The creators were happy to have the show picked up by Lifetime, and are filming episode one this week, and plan to return the end of the month to film part of episode two.

According to www.variety.com the show “revolves around a vapid wannabe model who suddenly dies and finds her soul entering the body of a brilliant, overweight, attorney”. The role is played by Broadway star, Brooke Elliot. As you can tell from the state flag flying above the Old Courthouse, the show is set in California.
Filming will continue on Friday, with some early morning scenes being shot outside on the Square. The Location Manager, Mitch Harbison, is excited to be shooting in Decatur. On a recent walk around the Square with Mitch and his assistant James, they both gushed about Decatur. Their biggest compliment: “The people here are so nice and so friendly”. They plan on doing future filming in our wonderful little city.
