The article discusses five Sitcoms that did not accurately represent the locations they were set in. Frasier made odd choices when it came to representing Seattle, with Dr. Crane's condo's geographic impossibility and the location of Frasier and Niles’ favorite hangout, the hoity-toity coffee shop Café Nervosa, being in a crime hotspot. Roseanne was set in the fictional town of Lanford, Illinois, which was reportedly "loosely based" on an actual place, Elgin, Illinois, but the show's representation of diversity and distance from Chicago were inaccurate. Full House lacked LGBTQ+ representation despite being set in San Francisco, which is considered to be one of the "most celebrated epicenters of queer culture in the U.S."
