4.) The Replacements

This show was a Disney Cartoon that ran for about 4 years and garnered a lot of fans. It was based on two orphans who were adopted by super spies known as the replacements. Often times the parents and kids would go on missions together becoming the replacements for someone else while being on a top-secret mission. Little did people know the city they lived in was Seattle and was based in Washington.

3.) Ozzy & Drix

Not only was this a long-running cartoon but it was also based on the movie that featured Bill Murray as well. It followed a white blood cell that was fighting evil and crime inside the human body, saving it from diseases or illness. Drix was his partner helping him fight crime but was an off-brand Tylenol capsule. Funny enough it took place in Washington state.
