21. Did you see JT whip off his shirt and get all sweaty yesterday?
Yowza. Then, a little hot shower action.

15. I remember Cecile
Wasn't she married to Cass? And Carl Hutchins was one of my favorite soap characters.

4. Salem is a little dangerous right now, with more DiMeras on the loose.
Maybe Pine Valley.

24. Pine Valley is probably Bryn Mawr, PA, and I'm there already...
well, it's about 10 minutes away from my far less prestigious Current Undisclosed Location!

Agnes Nixon, the show's late creator, was from Bryn Mawr, and it's generally accepted that she used it for a model for Pine Valley. When they've shown maps, it occupied the space that Bryn Mawr occupies. Plus it's outside "Center City", which is what the locals call downtown Philadelphia....

Way more than anyone wanted to know, I'm sure....

5. Llanview, definitely. It's filled with bars.
All those people do is go to the bar. Or drink at home. My kind of town.

10. Oakdale
Some believe it is on "As the World Turns". I, in fact, have been there. It is a tiny suburb of St Paul, MN regardless of what the shows writers may say.

And Happy New Year, Mr. Scorpio!! It is great to see you're around tonight.

13. None of 'em
Too much going on...too many tornadoes, earthquakes, plagues, floods, blizzards and other various natural (not to mention manmade) disasters.

I prefer my environs to be boring. Dull. QUIET.

25. Every once in awhile....
some Y&R character throws out a line about "looking at those projection figures" or some such, just to remind the audience that they supposedly do more than hang out. Ha!! Those people have the easiest jobs on the planet. ;)

28. LOL. I can't believe the amount of coffee those people drink.
They should be bouncing off the walls on every episode.

But, yeah, those projection figures need looking at. And...recently...they are "overstocked" on their product line. The. Horror.

20. Port Charles, definitely
1. Hunky men of all ages.
2. Although mob violence is frequent, there really isn't much other crime going on.
3. Doctors who will do anything to save a patient, even if that patient has no insurance or money.
4. They have big houses and at least one castle.
5. Everyone seems to be employed who needs to be employed.
6. The DA (Alexis) smokes pot.
