They filmed this show primarily in my city, and I watched the first episode mostly to see if I could recognize anything. I couldn't for the most part, so they did a good job with set-dressing and post-production. I actually watched them film one scene right outside the building I work at. It was when Sarah rode the city bus after school. That bus circled the block for like an hour, and they had a bunch of extras outside doing the same actions every time it passed. In the actual episode, for that part of the scene (from inside the bus when Sarah was leaning against the window) the camera was so focused on Sarah that you could only barely see blurry buildings outside lol. Those poor extras wasted a day for nothing. This anecdote is probably quaint to people who live somewhere where lots of filming happens, but this show was a pretty big deal in Calgary.

Anyway, the episode itself was fine.

Eh, they got paid. Considering the fact that extras typically get $100-200 I'd say that was worth the hour spent doing the same thing every few minutes for an hour.
