According to Adirondack Daily Enterprise, the filming was being shot on a “closed set”. This meant no pictures were allowed to be taken. When asked what stage of the production the show was at, Senior VP and Entertainment Public Relations spokesperson Amanda Cary said they can’t say anything at this time.
Showtime will reveal more once the air date for the season gets closer.

It’s unsure if the filming of the show at Paul Smith’s means Season 7 will take place in the Adirondacks or not. There was scaffolding placed outside the college’s forestry cabin, assuming they were shooting into the second floor.
