10 TV Shows Based In Michigan – Did You Know?

Countless television shows have been based in Michigan.

Some that may be top of mind include the following,

• Home Improvement (ABC)
• Freaks and Geeks (NBC)
• Good Girls (NBC)

Recently NBC picked up a show that will also be based in Michigan called 'Grosse Point Garden Society'. Variety describes the show as follows,

'Four members of a suburban garden club, all from different walks of life, get caught up in murder and mischief as they struggle to make their conventional lives bloom.'

You are on the right track if that sounds like a show similar to Desperate Housewives. Grosse Point Garden Society was created by Jana Bans, who also created Desperate Housewives and Bill Krebs.
