Think back to the last cartoon series you watched. Did you see red, orange and yellow leaves coming off the trees? Was there snow on the ground? Was school out of session?
If you answered no to all of these, and furthermore, can't even remember the last time any of these things occurred outside of a seasonal episode, then that's because It's Always Spring.
Cartoon characters tend to have a Limited Wardrobe, which generally does not lend itself to cold weather. Furthermore, school is often a plot element in cartoons about kids, so that rules summer out of the question. Finally, it is probably easier to just put green leaves on every tree and to never draw leaves lying on the ground, so ultimately, the lack of seasonal change is a matter of convenience.
Occasionally, the hero may visit another country which may specifically be hotter or colder than their hometown, resulting in a clothing and scenery change unique to that location. A season in another country heavily depends on its location: if it's Africa, Southern Asia, or some resort island, it's always warm summer, never the rainy winter. When it's Russia or Scandinavia, it'll be always covered in snow, even if the plot is set in July. However, almost without exclusions, It's Always Spring in the main character's hometown.
This may also have to do with the demographic appeal to make the audience relate more, as springs tend to occur even in places with both low and high extremes in the climate.
See also Dreaming of a White Christmas, Snowed-In, and Heat Wave.
Outside of animation, this is a consequence of Hollywood Provincialism. In Southern California, where most production takes place, the weather really is spring-like most of the year (at least, it is to everyone else). This was, in fact, a big part of why so much film production moved to Hollywood to begin with: unlike New Jersey (the center of the American film industry during The Pre Hollywood Era), the warm, sunny Mediterranean climate of Los Angeles allowed for year-round film production outdoors. It also occurs with shows and movies filmed in Louisiana or Georgia, two states in the American South that offer generous tax credits for filmmakers and have very warm climates; temperatures below 60 degrees Fahrenheit (15°C) (or, God forbid, 50 degrees (10°C)) are generally considered chilly. Outside of climate, most productions would rather film as much of a show or movie at the same time as possible, rather than wait for seasons to change, so even if the story has a seasonal shift, that may not be evident on the sets.
Christmas Episodes almost invariably shift the setting to winter. Forest of Perpetual Autumn is a specific aversion usually found in video games.

During one Valentine's Day episode, all the kids wore their usual T-shirts and shorts and Lisa wore her usual sleeveless dress; later, when the episode was mined for a Clip Show, Lisa comments in voiceover, "It was an unusually warm February 14th, so the children walked home without jackets."

Desperate Housewives takes place in an ambiguous location that is always perfectly bright and green out all year long. Including winter. In fact in all eight seasons it's shown raining hardly more than twice ever, save for the spontaneous tornado attack one day.

Averted in the first two Bleach movies, the first of which clearly takes place in the Fall complete with color changing leaves and the second which seems to take place in early Winter (with leafless trees and characters dressed in winter gear when not in uniform) since it was a Day in the Limelight movie for Hitsugaya.

In one episode of Gilmore Girls, Rory and Dean spend the night in the theatre in the middle of winter. When they wake up at 5am to go running home, it's perfectly light out. Now, Gilmore Girls takes place in Connecticut. It is never that bright out at 5am during the winter.
In general, this show is an inversion of the trope. Amy Sherman-Palladino did not approve of the early/mid-00's fashion of midriff-baring shirts, and set most of the episodes in the fall or winter to justify other fashions. By the later seasons, that fashion had faded, so Rory goes on Spring Break her freshman year of college and the revival goes through all four seasons, spring and summer included.

Story of Seasons games have rotating seasons. The crops you can plant and things you can gather change with them. Some games have areas where it is always a certain season, however. The Rune Factory spinoff series has such areas, for example.

A wildly inaccurate example in Greek. The show is set in a college in Ohio. The second part began after winter break. The finale was spring break. In between, Not. One. Snowflake. Not even a heavy coat. In Ohio. Where winters are known to kill people. The incredibly weak justification? "It's a warm part of Ohio". Apparently the warm part of Ohio is located in southern California.

Haven: Despite being set in Maine, the first four seasons take place only in spring or summer. There's even an Out of Holiday Episode that manages a Christmas in July filmed in temperate weather. The season 3 finale takes this to an egregious level. It's supposed to be set in late November/early December based on an earlier Halloween Episode, but all the exterior shots are lush and green, and the cast feel quite comfortable in light jackets. In winter. In Maine. The final season, which had twice as many episodes as the previous ones, finally had the cast filming in a Nova Scotia winter and everyone bundled up in parkas.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia not surprisingly fits this trope. It's always a sunny, warm day outside, despite the fact that Philadelphia can get quite cold. Even when news reports warn of a huge storm bearing down on the city, the weather is perfect and Frank notes, "It's warm as shit!" Only the direct-to-DVD Christmas episode has the cast actually start wearing winter clothing, and even then the weather is still sunny. The pilot for the show was titled It's Always Sunny on Television, referencing this trope directly.
One of the greatest examples is "The World Series Defense" which has the gang trying to get to game 5 of the 2008 World Series on a bright day. In reality, it was cold and pouring rain that day to the point the game had to be called off mid-way through and replayed two days later. In the world of the show, it was still fantastic weather.

The Simpsons sometimes goes out of its way to avert this, with the occasional episode ("Mr. Plow," "Homer the Heretic") set in winter or fall without reference to any holidays. Matt Groening expresses some annoyance with this trope in the DVD commentaries for those episodes.

Monarch of the Glen always appears to be in spring or summer. One exception is when Archie is forced to stop paying staff to cut costs, so Lexie refuses to turn on the heating; resulting in the occupants of the house wrapped up in winter scarves and hats.

In Miraculous Ladybug, it seems to be always be spring, even during Valentine's Day. The only two major exceptions are in the Christmas Episode, when there is snow on the ground.

An odd live-action example: in the Australian soap Home and Away, it's always summer in Summer Bay. Even when the actors are filming in the middle of winter next to the strong cold winds of the ocean, their wardrobe reflects a summer climate. No wonder they have trouble emoting — they're too busy trying not to shiver. This is justified only by the nature of filming: episodes filmed in winter won't air until mid-spring.

Yes, Your Grace: There are a few verbal hints of the passage of seasons, including Eryk judging a contest celebrating the arrival of spring very late in the game. However, the castle's vegetation never changes and rainy days tend to happen off-screen to create some of each week's petitioner demands. It also never gets too hot or too cold for anyone's usual outfit.

In Naruto, the Leaf Village is almost always depicted with spring/summer weather, even though the databooks give character ages establishing that Part 1 happened over the course of about a year of time and Part 2 up to the start of the Hunt for Itachi was about six months. Granted, it's part of the Land of Fire, so they might just have a warm climate. In the Shadow of the Anbu arc, it is finally shown to transition through seasons as Kakashi guards Kushina's well-being throughout the lengthy pregnancy of her son.

The German crime drama Tatort is shot about two or three months prior to its first airing (depending on some other factors at times), which means the season is off by about the same amount at the first showing. While the weather is often visible (and jarring compared what Germans see out of their window while they watch it) it is rarely commented upon. This is especially weird given that most episodes go out of their way to convince viewers they were really shot in Munich, Münster, Cologne or whatever, especially when there is California Doubling for all but a handful of scenes.episodes.

Calvin and Hobbes in particular had some epic winter strips over the years, including his famous deranged mutant killer monster snow goons. (C&H creator Bill Watterson was from the Cleveland, Ohio, area, which can and does have some pretty cold, snowy winters.)
Summer and autumn are less obvious, but do come up occasionally, such as one strip where Calvin is surprised when his mother mentions meeting his teacher at the supermarket — he'd "kinda figured teachers slept in coffins all summer", and another sequence where Calvin is supposed to assemble a collection of fallen leaves (and throws something together at the last minute). There are also several strips of Calvin playing in leaf piles, and even one where he notices the lessening daylight and worries that the sun is going out.

Averted in As Told by Ginger: if watched in production order the 1st season runs from early fall to summer (in "Summer of Camp Caprice") and the 3rd runs from winter (in "Far From Home") till next fall. The second season, however, starts in the fall but has no particular timeline in the second half. It also rains from time to time without it being relevant to the plot.

Averted in The Transformers (the franchise's original animated series). Autobot Headquarters is located in a desert, where there wouldn't be much in the way of seasons. One episode Lampshades this when Megatron's latest scheme disrupts the world's climate and it starts snowing in the desert in July. The episode opens with several of the heroes having a snowball fight.

The Grand Theft Auto series has this problem, although it is averted in Vice City and San Andreas, which are set much closer to the equator than GTA3. The fictionalized New York of GTA3 never changes climactically despite the significant amounts of time that can pass in game (it is actually possible to check how many days have passed in game from the menu).
In Liberty City Stories, the game is clearly set in late fall and it was meant to snow on occasion, but either due to programming bugs or the feature being Dummied Out, it never does. It just rains with unusual frequency. (Snow can be placed back into the game with a cheat device.)
Grand Theft Auto IV is set sometime in Autumn, as the leaves are for the most part gold and brown, and most of the characters wear coats.

In FarmVille, there are no seasons; it is apparently always the best time to grow whatever crops you want. There's a cosmetic purchase that makes everything white, like snow, but it has no effect on gameplay.

Save for flashbacks, it's always early summer in Higurashi: When They Cry because the same month, June of 1983, is repeating over and over, thanks to the influence of a local deity who refuses to let all the main characters stay dead.

Averted somewhat in Persona 3, the game takes place over the course of nearly an entire year. As the seasons change, the trees lose their leaves and they eventually grow back. Your party members will change clothing depending on the season (and little else), and school goes in and out of session as expected.

In Persona 4, it's always the rainy season, as it's guaranteed to rain every couple of weeks or so for matters of plot convenience. Golden is an aversion, since while the main part of the original game ends on December 26 before jumping ahead to when the protagonist leaves town on March 20, Golden shows the winter months, with Inaba blanketed in snow from January through mid-February. As a result of this, the cast dresses for the winter, the player can no longer garden(but can dig for insects) and the cast goes on a skiing trip.

Lunarosse plays it pretty straight, as it looks like spring the entire game except for one plot event where winter hits and the characters celebrate the holidays at their snow-covered base. Since it goes right back to its usual look after, the implication is winter lasted less than a month. Of course, this is more the limits of RPG Maker and not having to remake every area in the game for a winter climate.

Averted in Azumanga Daioh, as the story follows the lives of the characters over three school years, with each chapter corresponding to a single month. Snow is seen in the colder months (though not constantly) and the plant life always has an appropriate amount of leaves or flowers for the season. Clothing is the other obvious cue: the school uniforms have short sleeves and different colors during the warmer months, and when not in school the girls dress appropriately - "normal" clothing in spring, lighter clothing in summer, long sleeves in autumn, and heavy coats in winter. Then of course there are the trips to Chiyo's summer house.

The X-Files. When the agents are at home, the weather seems to be a nondescript season of mild weather. Partially justified in that both agents live around Washington D.C., which tends to exhibit milder winter weather and seasonal change than other parts of the country. The temperature is really the most noticeable thing, though even the average temperature in the winter is in the 40s.

Dwarf Fortress, with typical depth, averts this by simulating the seasons appropriate to the local climate. Played straight in Adventure Mode due to Good Bad Bugs which cause the season to reset to spring every time you quick Travel, which is rarely more than a couple days each time.

As of Fallout 4, no game in the long-running Fallout series has ever featured seasons although it's not unusual for a year or more to pass In-Universe while playing any of the gamesnote Fallout 4 does show lots of brown leaves lying around near trees, but that's just a stock texture as static as any other. The weather is always the same combination of sunshine, clouds, rain, thunderstorms and dust storms, with the occasional radiation storm thrown in for flavor. Actual snowfall has yet to appear outside of an elaborate combat simulation set in the distant past, and since it's virtually impossible to determine what season any given game is currently in, it might as well be what passes for eternal springtime in this devastated After the End Crapsack World.

Arthur has episodes that take place during fall or winter, sometimes for no discernible reason besides a change of pace. ("Arthur's Eyes" briefly showed his dad raking leaves, and "Arthur and the Crunch Cereal Contest" ended with a snowball fight.) And if an episode takes place during summer vacation, Arthur has even been seen wearing a t-shirt instead of his iconic yellow sweater.

Justified in Thief of Time, where it is explained that the History Monks have frozen their monastery grounds in time during the season when the cherry blossoms are falling, because they believe that to be the most beautiful time of year. Ironic, since Asian cultures find cherry blossoms beautiful because of how short the time is they're in bloom. Fixed at the end of the book. Lu-Tze got the entire point that Wen missed.

Downplayed in Steven Universe. While the first half of the first season makes it seem like a case of perpetual summer, other seasons start passing through once the show gains explicit continuity between episodes. However, events do seem very disproportionately focused in the warm seasons: In the show's first in-universe year, it appears to be warm in one episode, cool or snowy for the next three, and then it's spring by the episode after that. By contrast, the entire third season and some of the fourth take place between the first autumn leaves and the end of summer break.

The Sims 2 was the first Sims game to introduce the changing of seasons with their expansion pack Seasons (clever name, right?). Before Seasons, however, and even in the original version of the Sims, it was spring all the time, and the Sims could wear whatever they wanted to whenever they wanted to, which really wasn't all that bad. There just isn't enough time in the Sim day to worry about the weather being too cold for bikinis, and it gives the people who create clothing mods a lot of creative freedom.
This was also averted to a degree in the Vacation/On Holiday expansion of the original The Sims, where specific vacation locales were either in the middle of a blazing hot summer or a cold winter, and the characters' outfits changed to reflect that. Of course, the weather in THOSE regions is a constant as well...
The eternal spring was lampshaded in one of the expansions when you get the meteorologist job.
For Vacation, mentioned above, it's semi-justified by being a mountainous island: the winter-like lots are up on the snow-cap, the temperate lots are in a forest up on the mountain's side, and the summer lots are down on the beachy shore.

In The Sims 3, with Seasons, you can invoke this by turning off all seasons except for spring, as well as turning off all weather/precipitation. There will also be only Love Day (the In-Universe equivalent of Valentine's Day), and the Spring Festival will also be the only festival occurring.

Although it's occasionally averted — the episode "Reawakening" takes place during winter for no plot-relevant reason — Gargoyles follows this trope to a "T". It became particularly notable after creator Greg Weisman established a detailed timeline for the series, which sets several adventures to specifically take place over winter months.

Bug Fables: It has been confirmed by one of the developers that Bugaria is canonically in a state of permanent spring, except for the Golden Hills region, which is a Forest of Perpetual Autumn due to magic. The game itself opens after rain has passed (causing rocks to fall and block off entrance to the Ant Kingdom), but the weather seen in the story proper is always sunny.

Craig of the Creek: Season 1 plays this trope straight, but Season 2 is set in the summer from episode 8 onwards. This lasts till Season 3, episode 9, after which the characters go through autumn and winter before spring comes again near the season finale.

Of course, Nirn isn't Earth, so these consistent seasons may have some justifications. Strictly speaking, it's not really even a planet (cosmology in The Elder Scrolls is bizarre, to say the least).

A major part of the world in A Song of Ice and Fire, where seasons can and do often last years at a time. One of the major noble house's words are a warning to remember that while hot weather lasts a long time in Westeros, Winter is Coming, so the population should remain wary.

Pokémon:
Pokémon Gold and Silver appears to take place during autumn, judging by the hues used in of some of the areas. The remakes HeartGold and SoulSilver definitely do, as shown by the path leading to the Bell Tower being vividly covered in autumn leaves.
Pokémon Diamond and Pearl takes place around winter, with the northern region of the map being covered in snow with frequent blizzards.
Pokémon Black and White have a feature where the season changes at the start of every month, in contrast to how it was always the same season in previous generations.
Judging from the forms the Deerling and Sawsbuck found there assume, Pokémon X and Y takes place in the spring.

During an episode of Rugrats, the grandfather moves out of the main families house. For the next 30 seconds to 1 minute it shows the seasons changing. Then after it comes back to the season it originally was it is found out that this entire weather pattern change happened over a one week period with a sentence saying "One Week Later". Now THAT'S spring weather. Lampshaded immediately afterward by one of the parents saying "That's some weather this week, huh?"

A variation in Being Ian. We do indeed see a blizzard in one episode — which is actually odd, considering the show is set in British Columbia where in real life it scarcely ever stops raining all winter. Every other episode depicts perfect sunny weather of the sort B.C. usually only sees in the summertime, despite the show being set during the school year.

An interesting example is the Magic: The Gathering plane Lorwyn, in which it is literally always spring.
For some long period of time, at some point it turns into a dark always fall/winter and is known as Shadowmoor.
Magic certainly shows seasons, though. Ice Age was one of the earliest sets, and has had a few subsequent sets that show non-spring settings.

In Oglaf, the town of Meltwater is initially kept in perpetual winter by the sexually dissatisfied Snow Queen, only to be saved when Greir the mercenary services the Queen. In a later comic, the dwarves invent a frost-proof vibrator for the Snow Queen, and now it's always spring in Meltwater. (In short, inverted, played straight, and parodied.)

Trailer Park Boys is almost always set in the spring/summer (other than the Christmas special), to get around the production nightmare of trying to shoot the show in the Nova Scotia winter (and so Walking Shirtless Scene Randy doesn't freeze to death). This is worked into the plot; as fall approaches, the season ends and the boys end up in jail (as a rule), and return to the park in the spring when released.

Averted in Backyard Football 2004. When the climate in real life changes, the game climate changes too. Sports games, football games in particular, have had weather options in place since the 16-bit era. American football is defined to some degree by the fact that it's played outdoors, in a season extending from fall until the end of January or the beginning of February, and the majority of its teams are located in the (colder, wetter) northeast and Great Lakes regions.

In the Neverwinter Nights series the seasons never change regardless of how many times the In-Universe Game Clock cycles from day to night.
Despite the name, Neverwinter does get snow in the pen-and-paper game. Its name comes partly from the fact that the river never freezes, due to being warmed by a dormant volcano upstream inhabited by fire elementals.
In the videogames there is another explanation for the name given: the city was founded by the hero Never and his followers and allies, and was originally just a winter camp.

Peanuts was famous for its numerous winter strips (ice-skating, hockey, snowball fights) - but then, Charles Schulz was from Minnesota, one of the wintriest of all U.S. states. There were also several autumnal strips, generally involving falling leaves or Woodstock wondering if he should fly south for the winter.

Averted in Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Kanna's Daily Life, where each volume takes place over the course of a single season and cycles through them with each subsequent one. Mind you, this led to an entirely different problem once it hit volume 5 and Kanna was still in 3rd grade. The first season of the anime for the main series also clearly takes place over the course of about a year (specifically 2016-2017).

Stranger Things: All of the trees still have their leaves as late as November.
The second episode of Season 2 has a scene where El hides from the cops in the woods at night which was clearly shot during summer since all the leaves are freshly green.
It's most pronounced in the Season 2 finale, which has an epilogue set in mid-December yet still has trees covered in leaves and characters dressed for early autumn.

Animal Crossing uses the system clock to explicitly follow the seasons and provide variation in available collectibles. Animal Crossing: New Horizons even goes as far as to ask the player whether they live in the northern or southern hemisphere, to help ensure that in-game seasons match reality; earlier games assume the player is in the northern hemisphere.

In My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, it appears to always be summer unless the season is relevant to the plot. In one case this led to bafflement when a Fall Episode occurred soon after a Winter Episode, with no discernible transitions in either direction. Admittedly, the seasons are explicitly magical, but Word of God claims they still take the normal amount of time and this was purely because they didn't want a calendar to limit what plots they could do.

Although there is very little schooling in the series, the majority of Dragon Ball takes place around May. This is due to arcs often occurring over the course of only a few days, before Toriyama time skips the story ahead a few years.
Different seasons are shown by changing location, as with the Muscle Tower portion of the Red Ribbon arc, where Goku gets bitterly frozen as he didn't think to dress warmer for cold/snowy weather.

Ed, Edd n Eddy'': The first four seasons all take place during the kids' summer vacation, so the weather doesn't change. Season 5 makes it a plot point that autumn has arrived and the characters finally have to go back to school (something Ed and Eddy try to avoid by paiting the leaves green and placing heaters everywhere to simulate warm weather), and wearing different, warmer versions of their usual outfits. They also get a few holiday specials in taking place in the winter. Presumably the Big Damn Movie loops back around to the next summer.

Bully takes place over a school year, with appropriate season changes. After you've completed the main story, however, the game goes into pure sandbox mode aptly called "Endless Summer."

Averted on ER, which gives the impression that Chicago never has spring. Most of the time it's either snowing or raining, unless it's sweltering hot because they wanted an air-conditioning failure episode. Spring in Chicago is quite short in real life.

Pokémon: The Series: Due to the show operating Comic-Book Time, with Ash never aging, the Pokémon World is always in a summer season (due to early summer being seen as the ideal world for children adventures). In every region Ash travels to, the weather is almost always sunny and bright unless the plot demands otherwise. In Pokémon the Series: Black & White, we do see the change from spring to summer in the Deerling but otherwise the weather remains the same.

In Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, it's always either sunny or rainy, but never cold or snowy. Presumably cyborgs aren't bothered by weather—though if they use hydraulic actuators they might have to change their working-fluid in colder weather—but it's still a little jarring.
Even in winter, much of Japan doesn't get much snow—and without snow it's difficult to tell how cold it is. Occasionally the characters' breath is visible, usually at night.
As the supplemental materials say, most of the action centers in the new Japanese capital which absorbed both Osaka and Kobe, at least in the manga. Kansai region is generally quite hot — while it's not unusual to have snow in Tokyo, you'd be hard-pressed to find it in Osaka outside of a freezer.

Sailor Moon has seasons that progress at the same rate as the episodes aired. Since there were five series but the internal timespan is less than three years, this is the source of intense confusion to anyone trying to put together a consistent series timeline.

In South Park, it is always winter, even when it shouldn't be, such as during baseball season or Halloween. There is always snow on the ground and all the kids' standard outfits include hats and parkas. Only one episode takes place in summer, in which a big deal is made of the fact that the snow melts to expose the dirt beneath. The original short is set during Christmas, locking in the show's look as winter-themed. The snowy landscapes also helped animate the original short because the boys' feet are obscured by the snow. Justified, considering the fact that South Park is located in Colorado, a state known for being mountainous and therefore cold (to the point that some areas are classified with a subarctic climate).

The first part of Fire Emblem: Three Houses covers an entire year in the continent of Fodlan, and the second part covers from four to eight months, depending on the route, but it never seems to snow anywhere, even in the cold northern lands of the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus.

After several years of sunny summer weather, The Inexplicable Adventures of Bob! announced it would be introducing seasons, inaugurating it by having a Humongous Mecha knock over Bob's freshly raked pile of leaves.

Played with in Our Little Adventure. The seasons do change but since the world is flat, they logically shouldn't. There are also places in Manjulias where it's always summer or always winter. This like many other things in the comic get lampshaded.

Specifically, the first short, "Rabbit Fire", took place in summer (or late spring at the earliest); the follow-up "Rabbit Seasoning" in autumn; and the final short, "Duck! Rabbit! Duck!", in winter.

Most Mega Man Battle Network games seem to take place over a school year with weeks or months passing between the various plot incidents, but the appearance of ACDC Town never changes, with the trees always being green and no snow falling. This is possibly justified by the fact that, despite being based on Japan, the region of Electopia seems to be closer to the Equator than its real-life counterpart if a world map◊ seen in Mega Man Battle Network 4: Red Sun and Blue Moon is anything to go by. And, of course, when Lan travels to the Russia-inspired nation of Sharo in 4, it seems to be in a state of perpetual winter, despite this not being the case with other countries located in the north like Netopia and YumLand. Averted with the second game, as mentioned below.

Hey Arnold! played with this trope in a way similar to the Rugrats example above. There was an episode where Stinky decided to enter a harvesting competition — and while he is farming, it rains, it snows, it is amazingly hot... and in the end of the sequence, this dialogue (that sounded something like this but not exactly) happens:
There was also the episode wherein the town gets affected by a heatwave, appropriately titled "Heat". And the episode it was paired with was called "Snow".

The videogame The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall actually averted this trope. Seasons would change, with snow covering the ground in the winter. Except in the desert country. Of course, NPCs (especially the females) dressed in rather light and revealing clothing no matter the weather.

On LazyTown, Stephanie is apparently staying for the summer. So, the show takes place in summer, right? Well, there's two winter-themed episodes, and an episode where they go to school. Looks like Steph is staying longer than we thought.

Old/New City of Sanctuary never sees any kind of weather change except rain, despite the fact that the series is shot in friggin' Vancouver. The characters do, however, alternate between long and short sleeves.

Legends of Tomorrow: In Season 5, the Legends time-travel to France shortly after the death of Marie Antoinette, but still in the same year. The thing is, the Real Life Marie was executed in the fall, so the setting should be also in autumn or early winter. However, the one exterior shot looks more like spring or summer.

In Code Lyoko, a year apparently passes without any change in the seasons or weather except when required by the XANA attack of the day, and no aging or moving up in grades for the characters. All of the main characters except Yumi start off in the eighth grade, then a year passes and they're still in the eighth grade, then Aelita (who is in the same grade as the rest, i.e. eighth) is said to be twelve years old. Only once do they actually move up a grade, and if memory serves only twice is any sort of school holiday mentioned.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2005) inverts the trope by making the setting always Autumn. Which might explain its obsession with tinting everything brownish.
