Burbank is a fine community. It houses a large percentage of the film and TV industry in SoCal, and is largely made up of residential homes. It has an old-school shopping district and modern malls, decent schools and library, a smallish convention center and a good airport. I work and play there a lot, though I live an hour away by Los Angeles Int'l Airport and the beach.

If you head north, you encounter San Fernando and Sun Valley, which is a little more run down- lots of junkyards and such. But Burbank has always been the butt of jokes since the old days of Bugs Bunny cartoons and radio shows with Jack Benny. Gary Owens and Johnny Carson kept them alive.

Wish they'd have told us they'd do that. Sad

Did they distribute the "Flynn Lives" pins?

burbank & noho is where a considerable amount of the showbiz work happens.

hollywood, across the hills, is where all the touristy glitz is.

san fernando and sun valley are also necessities to the film industry. lots of the heavy duty grunt work, crew work, & tricks of the trade building fantastical film sets and props happen near or around there. who would think that an awesome design was fabricated in that seemingly run-down, junky warehouse? Smile

this is a broad generalisation but basically that's the lay of the land.

 		I doubt the original poster(or spambot) is listening to you guys and your defense of "beautiful downtown Burbank".

Yes, one per person, but he had a FedEx large box 3/4 the way full, so I have a feeling we may see more of them...

Burbank is fine...lovely even. Don't believe the hype, it is just an age old running joke.
