Never really understood it myself i guess its probably cheaper to film there?

@Dragonlord2328: @French_Fried:My guess is that the Eiffel tower is probably the European landmark that the highest number of Americans can instantly recognize. Just set that in your establishing shot and everyone can tell it's set in Europe without the characters needing to remind us of it through dialogue.
