Some of you may have noticed yesterday's post suggested by Jon that the New York City sitcom map had a label that said "#3 In A Series of Pop Cultural Charts" This is number 4, perfect for those of you who saw the map yesterday and thought "Hmm... I wonder if there's a map showing locations of sitcom settings nationally". Well, here it is. And what a fascinating map it is. Although not all of the shows mapped are/were sitcoms (I'm looking at you Matlock). Certain swaths of the country are somewhat poorly represented (southern and mountain states). Whatcha gonna do. By the way, the other two maps in the series, while interesting, aren't map-related so I won't be posting them. But if you're interested, here are the links: http://danmeth.com/tagged/popculturalcharts

Wonder Years took place on Long Island. I haven't even bothered to look at the rest of the map since that one jumped out at me right away. Why would someone bother to do something like this if they weren't going to take the time to be accurate?
