50 People Pick The Worst TV/Movie Depiction Of Their State | Culturally Speaking

[@jamesmckenzie9529]

Did Minnesota girl really complain that "Little House on the Prairie," depicted the state poorly because of lack of access to the internet? If that's what she thinks, "Little House" isn't the reason we think Minnesotans are slow.

[@peterstuart2501]

himym would've been the better call

[@Raesling1]

I thought it was set in Wisconsin besides. Guess I'm wrong, but Charles and Caroline were married in Concord, WI and Laura Ingalls Wilder was born just outside of Pepin, WI. Her house is still standing.

[@1987Megs]

I know. I was confused by that choice

[@arlaur]

I think she meant that non-Minnesotans expect current residents to be stuck in the era of Little House on the Prairie and assume that Minnesotans lack internet and whatnot.

[@arlaur]

Raesling Undomiel The first book in the series is Little House in the Big Woods, which is set in Wisconsin. LHOTP is about the family’s move west in pursuit of having more land. (I remember having to read both in elementary school. I found those books to be boring as shyte, but that’s just me).

Uhhh, the show Ozark to rep for Missouri is actually fairly accurate. The city of Osage Beach is just outside of area code 417. This area code is known for the most meth lab busts in the United States. Some people in the Midwest refer to meth as 417 because so much of it is produced in that area code. Also, the co-writer of the show, Bill Dubuque, spent his teenage years on the Lake of the Ozarks, and used some of his experiences as inspiration for the show. That girl was just ignorant of how bad the drug problem is in Southwest Missouri.

[@rainbomg]

Yes I agree that Ozark does a great job, it also makes the place look beautiful and although there are tons of drugs being moved about in the show there honestly isn’t that much actual drug _use_ , except for that montage where whatsername poisons the batch with fentanyl. I wanna say the main characters that have done drugs do it out of state even! I love that show tho I am a little traumatized by the last season.

[@schaefer_hund]

But... but Hairspray is so wholesome. You really can't think... of a more negative representation... of life in Maryland...?

I just thought it was weird that something like Hairspray seemed like a worse depiction of Maryland to this person than say... maybe... The Wire ._. (Not that the The Wire isn't a great show, but if I were totally unfamiliar with the state I'd come away with a worse impression of it after that than after seeing Hairspray :P)

Well, the thing is . . . New York IS diverse. Portraying it as consisting entirely of white yuppies is grossly inaccurate. (Plus, the apartments in the show are unrealistically HUGE). Whether or not you find the show to be funny, its setting is only New York in name.

There’s a lot of movement of them, but even with the major characters that do or have done drugs it happens out of state~ maybe I’m biased bc I’ve _been_ to the Ozarks but I think the show does a great job showcasing the beauty and the beast in the area.
