Famous Evansville Locations

Evansville has been home to a few famous filming locations. Of course, the most well-known filming locations are Bosse Field being used in A League of Their Own, and the numerous shots of Evansville that appear in the opening credits of Roseanne and then subsequently, The Conners.

Roseanne's Ties to Evansville

There's no doubt that Roseanne was one of the most popular sitcoms of its time.  I grew up watching Roseanne, and many of the episodes hole up just as well today.

 

The reason there are many shots of Evansville in the opening credits for Roseanne is that the producer and creator of the show is from Evansville. 

The home used for outside shots of the Conner house in fictional Lanford, Ill., sits on the south side of this Ohio River city at 619 Runnymeade Ave. The creator of the original Roseanne, TV producer Matt Williams, is an Evansville native. (USA Today)
