1976 — 2017
A thin but real footprint: No network series has ever been based in Fort Wayne, and the city's television record is one of visits rather than residence. The syndicated magazine format Evening Magazine, which ran nationally from 1976 to 1989 through local station franchises, produced segments filmed in Fort Wayne, as the genealogical society's video record documents. Network drama has used the city as an image rather than a base: the NCIS episode "Burden of Proof" (CBS, aired 7 November 2017) shows an aerial view of the Allen County Courthouse — stock footage, not a company shoot, but the courthouse in prime time all the same. That is the honest shape of it: Fort Wayne on national television is a segment here, an establishing shot there, and a long roster of mentions, which belong to the next entry rather than this one.
