I recently watched 62 pick-Up. I couldn’t help but notice that they used some older looking tables and chairs for the Blackbird Cafe. Could they have been left over from Eastland? Has anyone spotted this before?

Those round wooden tables could have been from the Eastland era; the producers weren't above reusing props or sets, as '80sSitcoms proved a few years back: the "junk" in the storeroom in episode 2-02 (including the painting) matches stuff seen throughout Season 1; the bust from the piano in S1 appears in the Chug A Lug Bar in S2; the Eastland classroom set of seasons 3-4 later appears as a Langley classroom in Season 6; Tumpy's New Yorker poster from S1 appears in nearly every season of the show; etc.
