In the television program Northern Exposure, the fictional town of Cicely is based on Talkeetna, a small town 80 miles north of Anchorage by the Alaska rail.
Of course, the show itself was filmed in Roslyn, WA.
this is not a filming location.. just because it's based on it doesn't matter.. there are lots of places that on film are supposed to be some place but in reality it's somewhere else intirely
Thus the show WAS filmed there, as well as other locations. You original comment says Roslyn was not a filming location, and that simply is not accurate. You're being pedantic.
In fact quite a bit of production did take place there.
