My father-in-law recently held a yard sale with the goal of making a little extra money (duh), but more importantly, getting rid of a bunch of stuff that was just taking up space.

Goodwill obviously has a wide variety of items to choose from. I think it's their ever-changing and unpredictable selection that makes shopping there so fun - you just never know what you're going to find. There are some things, however, that I know you will not find at Goodwill stores in Central and Southern Indiana. Before your next trip to Goodwill, check out the list below of donations that they will NOT accept.

Television Shows Set in Indiana

From comedies to dramas to reality television, to arguably one of the most popular science-fiction series ever created, Indiana has had its fair share of Hollywood productions use a location in the state to serve as a "home base," if you will, for its story. Some of these you've likely never heard of, and some you may be a massive fan of.
