I tried to watch Portlandia once.
It's not for everybody.. but it's pretty accurate at times with how weird or quirky the downtown populace can be.  Not the way I like it, so I don't hang around downtown too long or watch the show much.

Those waterfalls in The Hunted where Tommy Lee Jones has his final fight with Benicio Del Toro: are those in the Pacific Northwest?
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Locations for The Hunted:
Part of The Hunted was filmed at a paper company in Oregon City.
One was along the Columbia River Gorge (the river which borders between Oregon and Washington).
Some was filmed at the Elwha River in Washington.
A courthouse scene was filmed in SE Portland.
Another scene was shot on the Hawthorne Bridge in Portland.
One at Mt. Hood east of Portland.
One at Port Angeles, WA.
One at Portland Airport, also known as PDX.
One at Ross Island on the Willamette River, which separates west and east Portland.
Some was shot in Salem, OR (southwest of Portland).
Some was shot at Tom McCall Waterfront Park on the Willamette River, where they host the great Rose Festival.
And lastly, I would assume the waterfalls scene was shot at Silver Falls State Park in Sublimity, OR.  That's also where JUST BEFORE DAWN was filmed, I believe.
