The Reason Her Show Was Filmed In New York

It’s easy to imagine that filming The Patty Duke Show in New York is only logical. After all, it takes place in Brooklyn Heights. Not every film is shot in geographically correct areas, but this one was, and there’s a reason for it. Child labor regulations were more permissive in New York at the time of the filming of The Patty Duke Show. Because Duke was still a minor, shooting the show on a tight television production timeline was made easier.

Bette Davis Almost Made A Cameo In The Show

Producers of The Patty Duke Show came close to persuading Bette Davis to make a guest appearance on the show during its heyday. Davis had a double role in Dead Ringer in 1964, and the filmmakers believed a cameo from her would be a great tongue-in-cheek comedy. Unfortunately, the invited guest did not show up. Despite the fact that it would have been a minor role, Davis demanded a fee that the producers were willing to give.
