Yes, it was. A couple of years ago, someone posted the scene from 1981 or '82 in which "Bay City, Illinois" was mentioned for the first time. And I also remember watching the show on NBC in real-time back then, seeing that scene, and asking myself, WTF??!! Bay City is now in Illinois?? -

What absolutely boggles my mind about daytime TV is that no matter how many times weak/incompetent producers and writers fail in the soap world, they keep getting hired by other serial to wreak the exact same type of damage. (Or worse.) It's freaking unreal.Please register in order to view this content

I'm almost positive that it was changed in the 80s. -

And that revolving door has led to the cancellation of so many daytime dramas since the early-1980s. Very sad.

That's a good point: if a show's state is not mentioned for many years, it's easier for the revolving door of never-ending newbies in charge to miss out on or get confused about previously-established facts. -

IMO I get a brotherly/sisterly vibe from Kat/Jacob -
Yes, the locale officially switched to Illinois in the early-1980s. But I was watching daily during the entire Lemay era, and I'm fairly confident Bay City was never referenced as being in Michigan in any of Lemay's scripts. Agreed, Lemay did care about AW's past -- and used the past as subtext for many characters. But it is unfortunate he chose never to mention (or perhaps was unaware of) the Michigan connection. So by not mentioning it, this may be when that connection was lost for TPTB.
