"... a picture of mountains are shown on the screen and the text 'Silverado Canyon, California 100 Miles North of San Francisco' is displayed. The stock photo is actually of the Flatirons in Boulder, Colorado, and the University of Colorado Boulder campus can clearly be seen," the IMDB page states under "Goofs."
"All this time we thought Californians were invading Boulder, but Boulder invaded California," one person commented on Reddit.
Reddit users were also quick to point out that the real Silverado Canyon is not north of San Francisco, but is actually in Southern California.
"As someone who grew up right near Silverado I have never even heard it in the same sentence as SF," another person commented.
Reviews of the show are mixed. It was rated 4.3/10 on IMDb and a 33% on Rotten Tomatoes.
