I have a confession...

[SkydiveStMarys 0]

I have watched the soap opera, General Hospital since I was 11...obviously thru the years...it was off and on....lately its been more on with not working...but I admit it, I watch it and could tell you the whole storyline.....and who is whos child, wife, mother, husband, grandson....ex wide, step daughter...It is the best one out to watch!

Does anyone else watch one or am I a lone party of one. Lets look at it this way...is there a show that you watch, say, 24....The West Wing? Aren't these types of "soap operas"? They have "running" story lines.

I wathced it when my cousin was on the show. He played a young mental patient, and his character killed off one of the long time cast favorites sometime in the early 90's. I think his character was named "Cory" or similar.

He showed me all of the polaroids he got from women in lingerie (or less) who wanted to meet/date him. Unfortunately for them, he wasn't into the ladies too much.

Maybe you remember the character??

I almost got sucked into Days of Our Lives again about two weeks ago when I was working from home. Aside from that one day, I had not watched any soaps for about 10 years. They can be addicting which is why I stay well away from them!!

I've watched All My Children on and off since the early 80's. Sometimes I have it on in the background at work. Since it's the soaps, you really don't have to pay too much attention to the shows in order to keep up!

I watched The Guiding Light back in the early eighties. My sister watched it after we got home from school and I kinda got hooked.

Now they are just annoying.

i haven't watched a soap in forever, however when one is on in my customers breakroom, I can't get over that the same characters and people in the roles haven't changed....they don't seem to age much and the story line is easy to pick back up

I have watch Days since the 70s....I do not really watch much anymore, but I read the synopsis online and keep up. That might be even sadder than actually watching it.

Well...if I was home during the day, I'm sure I'd be watching one of them. But since I'm not, I watch night time soaps.

I remember my Grandmother, watching 'The Guiding Light' in the early 60's! Amazing, how long that show lasted.

I've been watching that show forever too. Can't get away from it. I think Erica is retroactively having (discovering??) children.

I don't think '24' or the Sopranos qualify as 'soap opera'. They don't drag little secrets out and if they get caught in affairs someone is shot on the spot, you know its coming and you don't have to wait 3 months for people to figure out whats going on...just the payback, jack ~~April
