Off Topic: How Many Of You Watch Soap Operas?

[Country Kids]

What was the soap operal couple I think in the 80's that was talked about so much when they finally got married on the show. I mean they seemed to be on every magazine cover, the news, etc. and they weren't together in real life I don't think. I just remember everyone being sooooo excited this was finally happening.

OK, I know I'm answering my own question/quote but remembered their names. It was Luke and Laura I believe. You would have thought it was a royal wedding the way people were acting. I think some friends of mine even missed school so they could stay home and see it.

I haven't watched soaps in a gazillion years. Plus, we only watch an occassional DVD in the playroom and that TV isn't hooked up to cable. It would be too tempting.

I used to watch All My Children before it ended. Now I don't watch anything. I listen to music most of the day. I try to read for at least 20 minutes at naptime.

I just had to add, that according to popular opinion. The majority of our days is watching soap operas and eating bon-bons. LOL

What are they gonna blame it on when their are no more soaps on?

Reality TV! ::

I could never get into soaps. Actually, there is not much good on daytime TV in my opinion. We no longer have a DVR, so can't go that route. If I get a chance, I might watch something on Netflix, Hulu or YouTube. I just finished the Texas Ranch House Series (again) from PBS on YouTube.

Answered yes, but didn't realize you specified "during nap time". I watch mine on SoapNet (cable channel) at 7:00 pm. NOT during the day. Big Young & Restless fan!!

Do you mean Luke & Laura from General Hospital? I used to watch that ever since before they were married. Stopped in the early 80's when I got a fulltime job. Genie Francis - "Laura" - is now on Young & Restless, by the way!!

Reality Shows-lovethishappyface at night-

My escape and thank you dvr

I do have my guilty pleasures::

No Tv during the day- movies or learning videos
once in a great while- but I mostly play music for the littles.

This is my outlet the forum during the day and it can take me a long time to get anything out or skim through the post. I am up and down all day long.

This is how I roll and what works for me.

Many moons ago, when I only had 3 day care kids, I used to watched One Life to Live when the kids were sleeping. My husband came home from work early and caught me sobbing as Megan died in Jak'es arms......::::

I do watch Doctor Phil though... I'm just not into any soap operas.. I assume it'd be like trying to pick up on the story line in the third book of Harry Potter... pointless unless you been keeping up on it.
