My partner watches bad science fiction tv shows all the time. He was watching one for awhile called Earth: Final Conflict. It was supposed to take place in Washington DC, but it was filmed in a very poorly disgiused Toronto. We could find instances in almost every episode where there was some recognozable Toronto landmark visible. On top of that, there are no skyscrapers in DC, and this show always had this urban jungle look to it complete with high rise buildings. Once, they had an interior scene in what looked like a City Hall chamber, and you could plainly read the names of Toronto's boroughs which were painted on the walls at the top of the screen.
Another example-in the movie the Opposite of Sex, (which I really like) there are scenes supposedly in South Bend, IN, where people are driving through mountains! Later, some charecters drive to a mountainous region of Canada, from South Bend, in a trip that appears to take a couple of hours at best. Then there's The Matrix, which is supposed to take place in Chicago but is filmed in Sydney and looks like it. > Makes me wonder how much disinformation we get from films.
