Areas of contention include Colorado (Mork & Mindy vs. South Park), Illinois (Married With Children vs. Roseanne), and Georgia (The Dukes of Hazzard vs. The Walking Dead).

Glad to see My Secret Identity getting some love.

The Afternoon Map is a new semi-regular feature in which we post maps and infographics. In the afternoon. Semi-regularly. Thanks to geography professor Andrew Shears and Business Insider for today's maps.
