710 Freeway (parts of it, anyway) closed for filming Thursday night

Break out your Thomas Guides -- a TV film shoot is taking over parts of the 710 Freeway on Thursday night and shutting it down. From 9 p.m. to 4 a.m., we commuters have got to get out of the way.

Steve Hymon has details of the closure, and of the show (love, lust and a higher power in Laurel Canyon) at the Bottleneck Blog.

And yes, that's an aerial shot of the 710 Freeway in the photo, shut down for a police investigation in 2006.
