Where Is Harrison Ford and Jason Segel’s ‘Shrinking’ Filmed?

Jimmy, Jason Segel‘s sad therapist character in Shrinking, has probably the most unorthodox approach to mental health that you’ve ever seen, considering his own mental health is faltering.

Struggling to keep himself together following the death of his wife, Jimmy, along with his teenage daughter Alice (Lukita Maxwell), are attempting to process their grief. In their corner is a whole team of therapists they are close to, including curmudgeon Paul (Harrison Ford) and Gabby (Jessica Williams), plus additional support from neighbor Liz (Christa Miller). Paul helps Jimmy work on his work-life balance by judging his choices with blunt humor. With a number of scenes filmed outdoors, viewers have been wondering where Shrinking was filmed.

Did the cast and crew of the series, created by Segel, Bill Lawrence and Brett Goldstein, travel from state to state to get their shots? Or are the beautiful backdrops from the same geographical location. If you’ve found yourself asking “Where was Shrinking filmed?”, then we’ve got answers. Here’s everything we know about the filming locations for Johnson’s series.

Where Was Shrinking Filmed?

Shrinking is filmed in California, specifically in Los Angeles County. The first season of the Apple TV+ series began filming in April 2022 and wrapped up in August of the same year. Since the story is set in California, series creators decided to film on location to maintain authenticity. Now, let’s take a look at all the specific sites that make an appearance in the show!

The filming unit utilizes various locations around the city of LA to capture different scenes against suitable backdrops. Moreover, many important portions are taped in Pasadena, the most populous city of the San Gabriel Valley.

It’s also clear that the production utilizes the facilities of Warner Bros. Studios at 4000 Warner Boulevard in Burbank. The film studio is home to 30+ sound stages of varying sizes located on the main lot and ranch facilities. Besides that, it consists of plenty of production office space spread across 4.2 million square feet.

As for the exterior sets, they can be made to resemble almost any period, time, or look, in order to suit the production requirements. All these amenities make Warner Bros. Studios an ideal production location for all kinds of film projects. LA also has a wide variety of landscapes, including mountain ranges, islands, forests, rivers, lakes, valleys, and a desert, to choose from.

Here’s hoping Shrinking lives to see a second season so we can keep seeing the sights of Los Angeles with Jimmy.

Shrinking, which premiered on January 27, already has two episodes streaming on Apple TV+ with new episodes dropping weekly on Fridays.
