History Main / ItsAlwaysSunnyInMiami

* The [[UsefulNotes/PlayStation PS1]] generation ''Franchise/FinalFantasy'' games had this problem. Typically the entire world map would be perpetually daylight, except for just one or two spots on the map. So it will ''always'' be nighttime in [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Midgar]] and [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyIX Treno]]. FFIX lampshades this a bit by calling Treno the "Dark City". Other places can become night, but only when the plot demands it. The [[UsefulNotes/PlayStation2 PS2]] ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyXII'' avoids this a bit by throwing in weather cycles in every location, but never a day-night cycle.

Related to ItsAlwaysSpring, ItsAlwaysMardiGrasInNewOrleans, and SingleSeasonCountry. Also a consequence of HollywoodProvincialism.

* Somewhat justified in ''Series/{{CSI}}'', seeing as how Las Vegas is in the middle of a desert. It's occasionally averted when the weather is plot-relevant.

* You'll never find a rainy, overcast, or any other kind of day but sunny in the Miami of ''Series/BurnNotice'' unless it's important to the plot. In fairness, however, ''Burn Notice'' emphatically averts CaliforniaDoubling and SoCalization, and is actually shot in and around Miami (the main shooting location being Hollywood, Florida, a few miles to the north). If it's sunny on ''Burn Notice'', that means it was actually sunny in Miami on the day they were shooting.

* If you live in a cold and clouded country, hot places become this. What people would view as cold there would be boiling for tourists.

* Averted in ''Series/TheGoldenGirls'', which takes place in Miami, and one episode dealt with the girls being shut in due to a hurricane.
** One of the {{Christmas Episode}}s ends with it ([[DreamingOfAWhiteChristmas naturally]]) snowing.

* In ''OnePiece'', there's the island of Enies Lobby, also called the "Nightless Island" because, for some reason, it's always sunny, even in the middle of a huge storm.

* ''Series/{{Neighbours}}'' has a rule that it never rains on Ramsey Street. A behind the scenes special showed that on rainy days outdoor shots are artificially lit to make it look like summer. However, it still rains in [[HomeAndAway Summer Bay]]. One notable example is in the ''Hearts Divided'' DVD, which clearly shows that the rain was a contributing factor in Dani not being able to avoid hitting Kane. And it certainly has a lot of stormy weather. Hasn't significant portions of the town slid into the sea during various tempests (blurry on the details). Usually someone dies.

** This prevails to such an extent that Metropolis is lit like Vegas at night and Gotham is overcast during the day. Both characters have commented upon it while visiting each other's cities. Animators in the {{DCAU}} once said that there was something inherently wrong in drawing Gotham on a bright sunny day.

* Averted in ''Film/KeyLargo''.

** Interestingly enough, it's almost always night in Metropolis in ''{{Smallville}}''. Director commentary said that establishing day shots of the city always looked horrible and they almost never used them.

* Averted in ''KeyLargo''.

* Averted... sort of, in ''GetShorty''. The opening is set in Miami, and it's snowing. Everyone complains about it.

* Averted in ''GoldenGirls'', which takes place in Miami, and one episode dealt with the girls being shut in due to a hurricane.

* Somehow, it's always sunny in the ''RoyalPains'' Hamptons. This makes rather less sense than in Miami, although again, semi-justified by the fact that all shooting is actually on-location in the Hamptons (or at least Long Island).

* Averted in ''GoldenGirls'', where bad weather is frequently shown and has been a plot point in a couple of episodes.

* ''DestroyAllHumans'' series (although weather changes from city to city, the weather of that city always stays the same)
