More Good Things For Wildfire

ABQJournal.com has nothing but good things to say about Wildfire!
Even if you're not watching the ABC Family TV show "Wildfire," plenty of people are.
The show— filmed in Algodones and Rio Rancho— saw higher ratings than any previous ABC Family scripted drama and has been picked up for a second season, said Paul Lee, ABC Family president.
The show's first 13 episodes were filmed during the past 10 months and shooting wrapped earlier this week.
But the big news for the cast, many of whom are doing their first TV series, was that ABC Family— Comcast channel 35— ordered 35 more episodes of the teen drama.
ABC Family said about 2 million watch the show, which has been called " 'The O.C.' on Horseback," weekly.
For the state, it's also a good deal.
"They spent 18 million bucks to produce it. That translates ... to $53 million to Rio Rancho, Algodones and Bernalillo," using an economic multiplier, said Eric Witt, director of legislative and political affairs for Gov. Bill Richardson.

The article also talks about the cost of production for the show and how New Mexico also benefits from it's success.
