Do you watch soap operas?

Yes I watch the UK soap operas,some I follow avidly!! But the storylines...well..omg...they are sooo farfetched!!! The latest plot in Eastenders is that a wife and her lover are going to `do away with` her hubby and bury him in the wood..I think they need to make them a wee bit more realistic....lol..on second thoughts.....lolol

Soaps have their own cable channel too. It is Soap Net.They air all the ABC soaps and Young and the Restless at night so you can see what you missed that day. And in the morning and afternoon, they air older soaps like Dallas, Melrose Place,and Ryan's Hope. I used to watch all the soaps you mentioned and Days of Our Lives , and Another World and Texas back in the day. I stopped because of storylines I hated. It has been a very long time since I have seen any of the Daytime soaps.I stopped watching them and started watching the Mexican Telenovellas, Spanish speaking soaps.They were fun to watch because I didn't know that much Spanish but now I know enough Spanish to follow them.

i remember my mom doing the same thing.lol i would watch them with her all the time, after i got older and had a life i didn't until i had my first son and stayed home to be with him. i started watching them again and yeah its funny cuz after all that time it didn't take much to catch up after years and years of not watching them. i stopped watching them again for about a 3 years cuz we moved and didn't have cable but now that i am back home and have cable i have been watching again. i really don't watch them like i used to but i do make sure i see guiding light everyday and if i miss it i watch it later on cbs.com. the others i watch if i get the time to sit but that don't happen often.

I used to be addicted to a few of them, but I got my self out of that habit, it was not an easy one to break - let me tell you.... but it occurred to me that I was partaking in gossip - virtual gossip anyhow and finding it entertaining... that really disturbed me.

I used to watch Days of our Lives but myLot is better than any soap opera I have ever seen. Passions used to be funny but they took it off cable and made it available to direct tv customers only. I don't really have time for daytime TV so I don't think I am missing too much.

Guilty as charged, I am a Soapie. My favourite Soap Opera is Bold and the Beautiful, I have been watching it for 13 years, I first started watching it when I was just 16 years old. I used to watch it everyday, however now I am okay if i miss a few episodes, I survive, lol. I also like to watch Home and Away. So that is one hour a day of Soapies for me. Game shows are good too, like Deal or No Deal, would love to go on there and win $200 000.

i watch some local soap operas. some are quite good and have watched themn from start to finish. i have somehow been busy with work and stuffs so right now i haven't even opened the tv. :D or maybe i got so addicted to computers i stay in front of it whenever there is a chance

I am a big Days of Our Lives fan. I watched it growing up with my mom. I quit while I was working except on holidays. Then I might catch an episode. When I quit work about 6 yrs. ago I started watching it again.

I, like you, haven't watched a soap opera in years. I used to like Guiding Light, As the world Turns and Young and the Restless. We used to watch them occasionally with my mom when we were kids. I don't really care for game shows anymore either though they have a load of them now especially during primetime.

I used to watch All My Children. My mom only had one TV when I was growing up and I started watching it with her when I was a teenager. Though it only lasted a year or 2. I haven't watched soaps since, though my mother-in-law tried to get me to watch The Old and the Tired...oops, I mean The Young and the Restless LOL, but I wasn't interested as soaps tend to repeat their storyline and it gets old quick, at least for me anyway.

i hate soap operas, in my opinion, i think their really boring, but i know some people like it, so im cool about it.~

I live in the UK, and so we have different kinds of soaps here, although I did used to love the young and the restless when it was screened here! Oh and the bold and the beautiful! I used to be a proper soap addict, especially when I only had one child. But now I have got four I just do not get the time to sit and watch them. By the time I have got the 3 youngest to bed most of them have finished! But I do still watch them when I get chance.

I and my mostly colleague all like watching soap operas,especially about love operas.one of our male colleague said that the women like watching soap operas all are romaticist.

yeah, i still like to watch soap operas. being a filipino i guess you can associate that to us. now koreanovelas or soaps from korea are a big hit in the phil but i don't really watch them. i prefer monk in star world or malcolm in the middle.. heheh..

I used to watch mexican soap opera, korean soap opera and it is really entertaining, if i have free time i spend my time watching this show. this is not only to entertain but you've got and learn a lesson from this.

i am still a soap watcher. i watch the channel with the young and the restless, and guiding light.

I watch General Hospital. My mom used to watch it when I was a kid. Like you, game shows in the am, the ABC soaps in the after noon. So, I pretty much grew up with GH. I still watch it, although I think that it is not so much GH anymore as it is The Sonny Show. LOL! I just hate that character and would love to see his demise on the show!

My mom used to do the same thing lol. I am 29 years old but when I was younger I used to love to watch Days Of Our Lives because mom used to watch it and my sisters and I got into it. Those were the days with Jack and Jennifer and Patch and Kayla. Those were the best years. Today it's downright retarded, period. However, I do watch General Hospital and I think that one is the only one these days worth watching and which has not stooped to the level that Days and other soaps have to get good ratings....
