Film Crew in Southie this week!

Could it be?
Could the Hammaconda be on the loose in the neighborhood this week? Actor Jon Hamm – Mad Men, The Town – is filming a reboot of the classic 80’s comedy Fletch in Boston and friend of CIS Eileen Murphy spotted this sign on Emerson Street:

Sadly, it is not Fletch that is being filmed on Emerson Street. It’s an unnamed CBS television show via Possible Production, Inc. They will be filming on Wednesday at Thomas Park and Pacific Street from 8am-2pm. Thursday on Emerson Street and L Street from 12pm-8pm. So watch for parking and traffic restrictions.

UPDATE: We got confirmation that it’s Ray Donovan that’s shooting in Southie – which makes sense because he’s from here! Let us know if have any Liev Schreiber sightings!
