I did this on a message board and we had a lot of fun with it..............

Name a television show and what state the series was located in. The television show would have to be one that has been renewed at least one season, a new TV series (began 2013-2014 season), either by network or syndication.

California and New York is over represented in TV shows. For New York State, all shows outside New York City, for California, outside of Los Angeles, San Francisco or San Diego.

Please add to an existing list. The show can be either a sitcom or a drama. I think the last time we did this, we got stumped on Iowa, New Hampshire and West Virginia, so double points for that.

Here is the list. Bold the state like I did and add your show or please add to an existing list. Like below.

Well, for me, it gets overwhelming when most of the answers are given in a post leaving the next person with fewer to choose from. It's like "why bother"? LOL. Nothing against the OP at all. Good topic. It's just others have tendency to take up the good answers. I think that we have to consider others more when answering these fun topics. That is why I normally save all the good ones for others so they can have a chance and I will post stuff that is not as mainstream or not as known.
