I won money on the game show Family Feud in Atlanta Ga. I paid the estimated taxes to the state of Georgia, but the company that paid me was from California.

The company that paid me is based in California but they shoot all of their shows in Atlanta Ga. The 1099 has their California address on it, but again we shot the shows in Atlanta. What state do I pay the income taxes to?

You pay taxes to GA. The fact that a check for work in GA is issued from another state doesn't result in owing taxes to the other state.
