All My childrenCameron Mathison plays Ryan Lavery, the hottest chick magnet in Pine Valley, Pennsylvania. Unlike most small towns, this one is full of rich, sexy young people who live glam lives and run high-powered companies.

Take Ryan's exes, Kendall Hart and Greenlee Smythe. These two BFFs are successful, sharp-tongued, and super-stylish. They're also co-founders of an ultra-chic cosmetics brand, Fusion. When Kendall, Greens, and the rest of their clique hit the office, business takes a backseat to hilariously bitchy bonding -- fueled by a bottomless supply of margaritas. Boy-watching is another daily must for the women of Fusion, who love their dream jobs but also want true love. Everyone should have this much fun at work!

The legendary Susan Lucci plays Kendall's mom, Erica Kane, a former supermodel who now hosts her own talk show, "New Beginnings." Erica's got plenty to gossip about, since Pine Valley is constantly on fire with scandalous hookups, nasty feuds, and sometimes even murder. Beneath the town's pretty surface, everyone's a sinner... but bad as they are, they always manage to look so damned good.
