HBO's "The Leftovers" Wants to Shoot in Harrison

Scheduled to start airing this summer, HBO's new series "The Leftovers" takes its plot from certain Christians' beliefs that have become part of pop culture (think "The Simpsons" and "Left Behind").

The show is based on a bestselling book by Tom Perrotta. But the buzz about it mostly has to do with its creator, Damon Lindelof, the man behind mega-series "Lost" —and with its cast, which includes Liv Tyler, Justin Theroux, Christopher Eccleston and Amanda Warren, according to tvovermind.com

Warner Bros Production requested permission to film at Harrison Police Headquarters sometime around March 14. 

They will be making a donation in the amount of $2500 which will be earmarked for spending at the discretion of the Chief of Police," explained Chief Anthony Marraccini in a letter to the board. 

The Town Board will consider the request at its meeting tonight. Municipal Building, 7:30 p.m.
