Los Angeles River is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 4 productions — in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on.
“The site is on the south bank of the concrete channel of the Los Angeles River, visible in some scenes on the series.”
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Los Angeles River as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Named here by Los Angeles River’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Los Angeles River, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

The Brady Bunch 1969–1974
“The house used for exterior shots of Brady's home in the sitcom The Brady Bunch at 11222 North Dilling Street in North Hollywood, has the bank of the river as the edge of its backyard.” Wikipedia

Works this page’s own Wikipedia article places here. Nothing was filmed — each of these is drawn or rendered — and as above, no pin and no download entry.

“Additionally, the game L.A. Noire is set in 1940s Los Angeles and features the river as a location for missions and is available in Free Roam.” Wikipedia
