Was wondering if Maude was the only sitcom that featured Manhattan in the opening credits and was not based in NYC? Were there any other TV shows that featured Manhattan in Opening Credits and was not based in NYC?

Now that is an obscure bit of trivia. :)

I can't think of any off the top of my head - all of the shows that I know that showed Manhattan (or any part of NYC) in the credits were based in NYC: Barney Miller, Night Court, Welcome Back Kotter, Law and Order (the original and all 35 or so spinoffs :) ), The Jeffersons, All in the Family, The Equalizer, SNL, etc.

Has there ever been a show based in Jersey? That one might have images of NYC in the opening credits.
