I would say, with a few TV shows as examples
1. New York (Sopranos, Sex and the City, Friends, Seinfield)
2. Los Angeles (Brady Bunch, BH 90210, Two and a half men)
3. San Francisco (Full House)
4. Chicago
5. Boston (Boston Legal)
6. Seattle (Frasier, Greys Anatomy)
7. Washington D.C. (NCIS, well close enough)
And then it's pretty hard to tell after that. By far most TV shows seem to be set in New York, even some that are filmed in LA like Everybody Loves Raymond.

I might add Atlanta, with House of Payne, Designing Women, and Matlock...along with CNN and The Weather Channel. There are also a few others:
BET's Hell Date and College Hill.
HGTV's Designed to Sell and A&E's Flip this House both have Atlanta teams in addition to teams in a couple of other cities.
Cartoon Network/Adult Swim shows.
T.I.'s new show on MTV, Road to Redemption (does it count if it's court-ordered?).
Bravo's Real Housewives of Atlanta (yes, some are ridiculous).
The Bobby Brown/Whitney Houston Show (some are even worse).

Chicago had Family Matters... the show with that Urkel kid
shows filmed in Los Angeles: Hannah Montanna, America's Best Dance Crews, Dr. Phil, The Toinght Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, American Idol, America's Next Top Model, Baldwin Hills, The Closer, Deal or no Deal, Entourage, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, George Lopez, Girlfriends, Heroes, The Hills, and to many more. Here's a full list.
NYC...Honeymooners, I Love Lucy, All in the Family, Taxi, Barney Miller, Odd Couple, Seinfeld, Friends, NYPD Blue, King of Queens, Sex in the City, to name a few...movies; the list goes on forever.
Boston - Cheers, Boston Legal, and dozens of movies.
LA - Fresh Prince, 90210, Rockford Files, Cannon, Mannix, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Sanford & Son, and
several others. Movies go on forever.
Baltimore - The Wire
Miami Vice
Cleveland - Drew Carey Show
San Diego - Three's Company
Denver - Mork & Mindy
Milwaukee - Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley
Dallas with a show of the same name.
Hawaii - Hawaii Five-O, Magnum P.I., Dog the Bounty Hunter
Chicago, Miami, Baltimore, D.C., Seattle, Vegas have a long list of movies.
I would say New Orleans too, not for TV but mainly for movies. Miami also seems to get a decent amount of exposure in TV and movies.
