The challenge? Simply ignore him. Can all you Chicagoans/Illinoisans handle that?
"Sh*ttsburgh"? Don't hate us cause we WIN Super Bowls, please don't.

Did I take ANY jabs at Chicago on this thread? Why you getting so bent out of shape? You're starting to sound like you have some type of inferior complex? What's up with that?

Yeah I can handle it. I was done with this Chumbolone before, but let myself get sucked back in.

Never again.

Seems like a pretty substantial list to me....
The only show to take note of recently is "ER", but the city of chicago did not feature prominently in that show's plot

Chicago was not really a "character" in ER, and it would not have mattered if ER took place in Philly, or Boston

All the shows set in LA, and NYC were so because those cities made the show what they are

They need to make a show about chicago, to show everyone how great Chi-town is

The last great show about chicago was "21 Jump Street", that was great show

The temptation was just too much though.....huh?......

Wow, you guys are REALLY mad that "Hillstreet Blues" was based on Pittsburgh. Didn't realize a show from the 80's meant so much to you guys. ...........

Sounds good. Welcome aboard! The only way to kill the leprosy is to amputate the infected limb.

Back on topic... I think Chicago is quite high-profile. Not quite as high as NYC or L.A., but it would be 3rd in my books, based on its importance, media coverage, etc.

Not enough exposure.
Everything is shot in NYC or L.A. or Miami, or Vegas
