Alex uses the latest season of Outer Banks as a case study in what happens when streaming economics collide with geographic authenticity. After noticing that supposedly Spanish and Mediterranean locations look suspiciously like Croatia, he digs into why productions consolidate filming in places like Dubrovnik—and how tax incentives, production infrastructure, and cost-cutting can turn entire countries into interchangeable backdrops. Along the way, Alex compares Outer Banks with Below Deck Mediterranean, reflects on Game of Thrones-driven tourism, and explores the strange relationship between entertainment, economics, and the places audiences think they’re seeing.
