At least some of Dexter's exteriors were shot on location. I don't know what percentage, but it wasn't all LA. "Burn Notice" had a lot of actual Miami exteriors, too. I liked seeing MetroRail and MetroMover tracks in the background.

Long Beach has also substituted for Miami in "CSI: Miami."
Downtown Los Angeles is also used in a lot of car commercials, at least the ones they air here in the Los Angeles area.

I've often wondered how many makes use regional commercials. Usually I wonder this when I see Chicago in car commercials I see in Chicago. I like seeing Chicago used, but I wonder if they're part of a national campaign or a regional one.

California and B.C. definitely get a lot. I've noticed Chicago getting in on the action some, too, though. And, of course, New York makes appearances, especially in recent Cadillac commercials. And a few in Detroit - Chrysler had a few in recent history shot in Detroit.
