New York will be the most popular North American city for US drama pilot filming this spring with 11 separate projects scheduled for production, plus one comedy shoot.
Los Angeles is the next most popular for drama pilots and in fact takes the top spot for comedy TV pilots, according to figures reported by Deadline.
Vancouver rounds out the top three for drama, hosting six US pilots this spring.
Atlanta is set to host just two drama pilots, despite being one of the main US production hubs for film and TV production.
Spy comedy drama Whiskey Cavalier will shoot its pilot in Prague and is the only US pilot project to film outside the US this season.
The stats mark a change from last year when Los Angeles was level with New York, Atlanta and Vancouver. A lack of international production is consistent, with just a couple of US pilots filmed overseas for the past three years.
