Best TV Show set in Florida?

This came up in another thread and I thought it would make for interesting debate/discussion. So what is the best show set in this state?

Coach? Really? By the time they were in Florida that show had jumped the shark.

You make a very good point. I had a hard time with Florida.

Not really my cup of tea but I know Golden Girls had a lot of fans.

I know what you mean. I thought Miami Vice and then couldn't think of another show.

All in the Family was set in New York, but didn't Archie Bunker spend a lot of his time in Florida?

I go for Dexter. I'm only three seasons through on my Koreafied viewing, but I have enjoyed the first three seasons immensely.

Not as far as I remember.

The only notable trips that I recall from the show were Edith's visits to her sister (cousin?) in The Poke-ya-nose (aka The Poconos) and the trip to California to visit Mike & Gloria in their new home.

Ah...was going for an Esther Rolle pun there but she was on Maude, not All in the Family. My bad.
