6. Loudermilk

"Loudermilk" only ran three seasons on the AT&T Audience Network but its rights were bought by Amazon Prime.

The "Grunge capital of the world" was a key factor in the show but it was actually shot in Vancouver, British Columbia.

"The Young And The Restless" debuted in 1973. The CBS soap opera was set in the fictional city of Genoa City, named after a Wisconsin town. The creators of the show had a vacation home in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, near Genoa City and thought the town was the perfect setting for the series.

From 1974 to 1979, "Good Times" brought us the Walker family living in a public housing project in Chicago. The series was a spinoff of "Maude" which, in turn, was a spinoff of "All In The Family". "Good Times" showed the Cabrini-Green neighborhood during the opening song credits.
10. Better Call Saul

"Better Call Saul" was a spinoff of the series "Breaking Bad". Both series were set in Albuquerque, New Mexico. "Better Call Saul" was actually a prequel to "Breaking Bad" and starred Bob Odenkirk as lawyer Jimmy McGill. The series ran from 2015 to 2022 on AMC.
