March 1, 2005 - The Mayor's Office of Film, Theatre and Broadcasting's February marketing campaign advertised the ABC television show Hope & Faith with the "Made in NY" logo. As part of the Made in NY Incentive Program's marketing credit, the City provided free advertisements on bus shelter posters throughout the City to the show.

"New York City is the greatest backdrop for the world," Kelly Ripa, star of Hope & Faith and co-host of Live with Regis and Kelly, said. "There's nothing that can't be done here. It's the most efficient place on Earth. Whole cities can be manufactured in a matter of days, and anything you need is a mere phone call away. The world-class crews are the best and most experienced in the business. I feel privileged to work with such industry icons and consider them members of my family."

Hope & Faith began production at Silvercup Studios in August 2003, and joined with Mayor Bloomberg on set in December 2003 to celebrate Silvercup's 20th anniversary and the production of the show in New York City.
