Default Shows where the city or state was never revealed

The Brady Bunch (not until the movies)
The Simpsons (at least not the state)

Well - the city the Simpsons live in is Springfield - but of course no one knows which state.

Did they ever mention where Malcolm In the Middle was located? If they did, I have no idea where it is.

The Wonder Years never named the state, not sure they even named the town?

Petticoat Junction & Green Acres were both set in Hooterville, but it never said which state it was in.

They never named exactly where they lived at all, because they wanted the viewers to believe it was a normal, everyday sixties-neighborhood, not in any particular area of the country.

Nope....a lot of people think they can figure it out by various clues, but then something else will rule out that location. They did that on purpose just to irritate everyone.

Whatever state motto that is, you can be sure something else revealed in the show ruled out that state. They loved to keep people guessing.

Not only did Malcolm never mention the setting where the show took place but they also never revealed their family's last name on the air.

Talk about mysterious!
