I watched Passions for years and years.....


......I'm too into reality tv anymore to be caught up in daytime soaps.

I don't watch soaps anymore but in junior high I watched Days and then in high school and college I watch All My Children.

Even though I haven't watched Days in a long time I was pissed to find out that Sami and Lucus were together. That's just wrong! Sami was so mean to him.

"Days of our lives" has been a part of my family longer than I have.

I used to watch 'Young And The Restless' and 'Bold And The Beautiful' in my teens and early 20s, but I eventually lost interest in the main storylines on both and haven't bothered to watch since.

and I sometimes check on Soap websites to see what Bo and Hope are up to.

I;ve met the lady that plays Hope before. She was really nice,and amazingly beautiful. My mom and sister have met the guy that plays bo. they said that he was really nice too.

How are we defining "soap operas"?

In any case, I never pay any attention to which network a show is on because I really couldn't care less about that. All I care about are characters and content.

That being said, the only shows I watch with any regularity are Grey's Anatomy and House, M.D. but I don't consider them soaps.

She was quite beautiful and a young woman, too, but a terrible actress. I didn't care, of course, and was enthralled by the storyline and liked her anyway. A few years ago I was out of work, and spent some time watching, and found that she had turned out to be a decent actress. I am confused by all of the switches, and plot twists with the John character, and I miss the goofy guy who later went on to play "Q" on Star Trek.

I think you should extend the choices to include PBS, BBC, SCIFI network, ...Etc. There are alot of "soap" like shows out there that are watched. (I happen to like Battlestar Galactica which is soap-like) . Also add a "NONE" for those that don't watch them.

if i'm off from work, i will switch on "general hospital" and watch. of course i only get to see it about 3 times a year, but somehow nothing ever changes. waaay waay back i used to also watch "guiding light" because it was on at the same time as GH. i'd switch back and forth, but then they inexplicably moved its time to the morning and then they got rid of every character i ever liked. so i don't watch it anymore, even if i have the chance to.

^^I used to watch guiding light too! of course this was 15 years ago

I chose ABC but during the summers, I switch back and forth between watching Days of Our Lives and One Life to Live.

i used to watch OLTL every single day. i stopped after they replaced all my favorite (prettiest) actresses.

I really love the first six (maybe seven) seasons of Dallas, up to the point where they brought Bobby back from the dead. It was crap after that, and I have no idea why or how they drug it out for another six or seven seasons. But it was really a great show for the first few years...I should totally get that on DVD, now that I think about it.
