Burn Notice, which is set in Miami, comes to mind as one of the very few that gets it right. Outside-the-city scenes actually haves the roads with scrub pines and mangy brush that you see so often.

Of course, you usually don't see much Spanish Moss except in rural and wilder areas, because any native or longtime resident knows to cut it out of their trees. It is a parasite that eventually kills the host tree, so you don't see it much in the burbs. Well, except in the yards of the northern transplants who think it looks romantic.
