TV Pilot 'Doubt' Films at Oak Park Arms

From Oak Park Arms:

A new telvision drama called Doubt filmed scenes last week at the Oak Park Arms. 

Producer and writer David Shore, of House M.D. fame, is shooting in Chicago, but wanted to have some scenes at the Oak Park Arms. 

The Oak Park Arms was selected as the location for a scene where the main character, Steve Coogan, seeks out the wisdom of an elderly friend. His friend is playing bridge in the Patio Room, and Coogan comes in and discusses a difficult case with his bridge-playing elder. 

According to IMDB, the show is about a former cop who’s now a cunning but charming low-rent lawyer uses his street smarts to work the system for his clients while battling his own demons and wooing his ex-wife.

“This is pretty exciting for all of us,” said Jill Wagner, director of marketing at the Oak Park Arms. “The residents are enjoying watching all the preparations.”
