Its 1230 almost time for my soap.opera days of our lives to come on ..it comes on daily at 1 pm And i try and watch it every day ..infact i find myself planning my time and life things around this show i love it ..one because its a great show Two because i grew up watching it in the 80s wirh my grandparents and yes my grandpa watched and loved it just as much as we did . the great thing is they still have most of the character actors as they did all.those years ago so i guess it feels like family to me .do you have a soap opera or show that you watch daily .. ?

@JohnRoberts I used to love watching All My Children when I lived at home with my parents. That was a really long time running soap.

That’s awesome you have been watching it all those years. So nice to have those memories watching it with your grandparents. Never heard of men watching soap operas back then so how cool is that! Must have made your grandma happy to have a husband to watch it with her . Years ago for a few years I watched a soap opera called Passions. I was so sad when it was taken off the air.

@Nana49 I don’t recall either of those Soap Operas. I haven’t had cable though in about 13 years.

I watch 'The Young and the restless' and 'The bold and the beautiful', a few times a week, and almost always watch 'General hospital'. I used to also watch 'As the world turns', 'All my children', 'Guiding Light', and 'One life to live' when they were on. Though only guiding light and one life to live were an every day thing for me, as GL was both my moms and grandmothers favorite soap and them having it on when id get home from school was a good way for us to hang out and have something in common. And then I got into OLTL when I found out that GL was ending.. which OLTL ending is also how I got into GH..

I love The Young and The Restless (I do not watch every day but I record it on PVR so I am behind, but I love to watch the episodes and play catch up a couple times a week) and Coronation Street, a British soap.

I never like soap opera from the very beginning. It adds stress to me. But i have nothing against those who love it.

@shaggin @Nana49 I know the difference.. I just used one word as I thought you would understand what I mean.. because the word 'soap opera' had already been used We have ,many like that in India and my mom loves them.. not me.. I can't wait for months to see the ending..
