I had the surreal but opposite experience some 25 or so years ago of seeing my hometown where I lived from 4th through 12th grade, and where my mom and her family continued to live until I was 28, a city of 16,000 used in all the establishing shots and outdoor scenes for a the fictitious town that was the focus for a series (which disappeared into history after only one season) all about 20 somethings coming back to settle in their hometown. It may even have been called My Hometown.
It certainly wasn't mine, in any way except physical appearance!
I can't stand anything on either Disney or Nickelodeon. It's all so style and appearance and fad centered, and it's such a thinly disguised marketing scheme. Bring back the old Warner Brothers cartoons, and let Wyle E. Coyote and Bugs Bunny teach them a little old fashioned brutality and violence, I say!
