The new detective series on FX is set on the beach communities of San Diego, where I lived until recently. The show is average, but (and I experienced the same problem when I watched one season of "24") I get annoyed when they screw up the geography. I know what is around a corner when they are driving, then they do a jump cut to an entirely different community. And whenever they drive past the Ocean Beach Pier (at least two times in the pilot), they are driving in a parking lot and pretending it is a street (the parking lot dead-ends, by the way, so they were technically driving from nowhere). Nitpicky, I know, but that's the way it is.
So far, I can't tell if the series is shot in Ocean Beach or if they just filmed a lot of establishing shots there, then cut to some other location with the stars. The full pilot episode is presently one of very few available for free at the iTunes Store: http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewTVSeason?id=388702575&s=143441 http://www.hulu.com/terriers -- Kevin M.
