One Life To Live Ending!

Wow, I didn't know these things ended, that is amazing..I don't watch soaps anymore, but the ones I did watch I am sure is still playing strong..I wonder if they were to end, how they'd end it. Well, I guess since you just started watching, you don't have an attachment to the show, I feel for those who are. Because I quit watching on my own, but if I was forced to by the show ending, I think I would be devastated..

Just out of curiosity how did it end? I used to watch that many years ago, but then I just got tired of all the same old story lines repeating over & over so I stopped watching soap operas altogether.

I use to watch One Life To Live regularly, but the story lines just stopped being good enough for me. Its always sad to see a show end, but it became clear that the ratings drop was going to cause the network to find another show to bring in ratings.

I had watched it on and off over the last six or so years, so I didn't know who all the people are when they referenced them over the last couple of weeks. Like I don't know who Drew is, although like they said it was Matthew's brother. But by what woman, maybe Nora? I have no idea. I wish they had ended Jessica and Brody's story differently. He was so good to her for so long, and then they find out her kid Ryder is really Brody's son and not Ford's. A shame. I never liked Todd or Blair so I'm fine with him being arrested for a murder that never happened. I thought it was a fantastic ending that showed Victor being held captive by Allison. Unlike AMC, OLTL ended thinking they were going to be continued on the internet. So they had some great cliffhangers. I was glad to see Viki and Clint together. I do wish they had brought back Marty with Patrick since Cole said his dad was alive anyway.

They screwed up with those soap operas. I never watched them, but if they wanted to get the younger people into them, then they should have changed the format, put them on cable and put them on at night. I had a few ideas what they could have done with them. One of them is, since reality shows are popular, they could have had a reality soap where they show you behind the scenes in real time. Everything that goes on. Then afterwards, they could show the actual soap. But they had to be updated. It was the same garbage I remember as a kid when my mother and grandmother watched them. Nothing changed. They also could have put them into social networks, on youtube. You name it, they could have made billions if they would have changed up.

I never watched One life to live but it has been around so long that I know it will be missed by many people. Soap operas can be very addictive. I've never watched them as an adult but I did as a child because my mom did. We used to watch Young & the Restless, As the World Turns, Bold and the Beautiful and Guiding Light. Guiding Light was my favorite and it ended in 2009. Although, I hadn't watched it since I was little, I remember being very sad when I heard it was ending because it was as if a childhood memory or friend was being destroyed. That soap was a staple of my childhood that had been around long before me and for some silly reason I thought it would be around long after me. It almost made me cry and then I had to remind myself that it was just a t.v. show, nothing more and nothing less.

I've never watched a soap opera in my life. It really doesn't matter to me whether they begin, end, or stand still another 50 years.

I have never real big into soap opera. I have friends who are.Two friends are fans of One Life To Live. They were very sad to see it end! Both were choked up seeing the last episode! To me this is like seeing my favorite sitcom ending! It is not fun to see but we get over it!

I wonder home much time you have to watch soap just waste of time
