Residents in the San Francisco Bay area got a glimpse of Hollywood magic as a tanker-trailer explosion drew eager spectators, SFGate.com reports. The explosion was filmed for the NBC pilot “Trauma,” described as an “edgier” version of “ER,” the site says. Production of the show has given the city a boost in light of the current economic climate taking a toll across the country, SFGate adds.
