There was a movie and a TV show that were made and ficticiously placed in my small town in Ponca City, OK.
The movie was from 1947 and was called "The Stranger from Ponca City." The show was circa 1990 and was called "Sugar and Spice". I don't think it made it through it's first season on one of those minor WB type networks.
OKC had "Saving Grace" with Holly Hunter that ran for several years about a decade ago.
There have been quite few movies that have been filmed partially in this area through the years. Rainman and Twister being the most notable. They did a movie that was adopted from an Oklahoma author here about 5 years ago. It was a murder mystery starring Casey Affleck that was set in west Texas. I remember the OKC shots were supposed to be Fort Worth.
San Jose: Good Doctor now and Parenthood in 1990 with David Arquette, Leonardo De caprio and Ed Begley; also Silicon Valley on HBO. Last Man on Earth partially took place in SJ.
My favorite San Diego TV show was Simon and Simon. I also liked the A&E reality TV show Family Plots from San Diego.
