Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I watched a lot of cop shows in the '70s. So I guess NY and LA got covered. And I loved Emergency and liked CHiPs.
Happy Days taught me very little about Milwaukee. (Or was that in a suburb of Milwaukee?) Neither did Lavern and Shirley, but I was annoyed when they moved to LA.
And my impressions of Fantasy Island were largely informed by the TV show of the same name.
Oh, and Hawaii Five-O for Hawaii.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
That's the danger of not being subbed to every thread. I'm invariably behind somewhere.
You're a bad board citizen!

The status is NOT quo.
New York- Huh. I grew up just a couple of hours away, so I'm not sure if my first images of NYC came from a movie or television show. I think the first book I read that featured NYC was A Cricket in Times Square, though.

London- Mary Poppins, Peter Pan (Disney cartoon version), Bedknobs and Broomsticks, A Little Princess (the Shirley Temple version)
LA- Singing in the Rain, LA Story
Rome- The Italian Job, The Talented Mr. Ripley, Much Ado About Nothing, The Wings of the Dove
Berlin- Cabaret, The Bourne Supremacy
Tokyo- Lost in Translation, without a doubt, and Godzilla
Australia- Crocodile Dundee (sorry, billytea!)
