I used to laugh about the Canada effect on Stargate SG-1. It's a well-written show about traveling to other planets in the galaxy, but almost every planet looks like a forest in British Columbia because that's where it was shot.
I'm watching through SG-1 for the first time right now and as someone who grew up in BC I am actually delighted by this.
It's very fun for me seeing little easter eggs about my home region. And one huge one: They called a planet "Kelowna", which is just the name of a city near Vancouver. But who would know that unless you live nearby?
Ah, yeah, SG-1 is a good example. The 100 is another (post-apocalyptic earth). And Battlestar Galatica.
In retrospect I realized I grew up with a few major styles, including "shot in a back lot in LA" (Back to the Future), "shot on a ranch outside LA" (Little House on the Prairie), "movie set in city actually shot in city by director who loved the city" (the Conversation), and "shot at Elmstree" (Star Wars interiors).
Ultimately I want to watch a movie where I can't tell what forest it was shot it, especially if it's off-planet.
