Speedway, Indiana-lol It was never mentioned that she went to college in California and she didn't have a career just a regular job as a cashier. So Janet went all the way to California to become a Cashier?-lol Even though Terri was from Massachusetts, she did have a Career Job

That is a VERY good question! I also wondered how her and Chrissy met. I do not think they ever said.

Ooo, Ooo, Ooo...They should do a movie, a prequel and show how all the kids met. Just a thought.

This should be the most logical answer. In real life( according to her imdb bio)
DeWitt was born in Wheeling ,WV...but her family moved to Indiana were she actually grew up. That's really the only logical explanation and angle I can think of.

********* Something interesting I just learned recently. I was watching a movie called The Hills Have Eyes (awsome horror movie by Wes Craven). Of course I had to watch the original too...from 1977. Well the lead actress was Susan Lanier....and of course I knew that name was familiar ..so I looked her bio on IMDB/ Than I thought of course she was Crissy on the second pilot. Funny how she just a footnote in history now, when in reality who knows what could have happened if she got the role. Now I've never seen the second pilot, but from what I understand she was really bad. I believe the sec pilot is on tomarrow at 9:30 am est time, so I guess I can see for myself.:wave:

I could understand if she wanted to be an actress or something in that field, but I can't imagine moving across the country to work in a flower shop.

Maybe she was born in Santa Monica but moved to Indiana later on and then moved back to her birthplace :confused:

Maybe she came to LA like many others hoping to be discovered for an acting career!

I think if the writers put in the script that she was from Indiana, that they should have explained how she ended up so far from her hometown or just leave it a mystery.

That would make sense. Personally, I think they should have explained why she moved out to L.A. from Indiana.

I guess she liked the beach and wanted to move out to Santa Monica to have a change...

What I never understood was that Janet's sister, Jenny, was going to college when she visited her and Janet never went to college and preferred to work in a flower shop. Chrissy not going, I could understand, because she was too dumb to be anywhere near a college campus, but Janet was smart and could have gone.

I guess that she didn't want to go to college or maybe she went for a semester and didn't like it so she dropped out and moved to Santa Monica.
