      The late 19th century might be interesting, for a pseudo-western. Apparently there were long stretches of time where everyone forgot who the sheriff/Marshall was, & the newspapers publicly questioned the existence of the local police.

      It kinda seems like there have been classic SoCal neo-noir films set in the ‘30s, ‘50s, ‘70s, & early ‘00s.

      Has the trope about middle-aged to elderly former hippies sitting in ramshackle bungalows worth 7 figures been mined from every angle yet? A gritty series specifically about neighborhood gentrification might be interesting...

          California may be most famous for its Gold Rush, Hollywood’s entertainment industry and Silicon Valley, but it’s most lasting magical treasure probably is its blessed dirt.
