Watching Soap Operas on TV Relieves Boredom

Watching soap operas on television helps relieve boredom. It makes one get excited on what will happen to the main characters; to the protagonists and antagonists. Day in and day out, one can feel the excitement specially when the main character gets justice if the story involves conflicts and revenge; of the good winning over the evil; when the antagonist gets what he deserves. Do you also watch television dramas?

Thanks, @@BelleStarr. I do not watch soaps when I was still working in an office, but now, I have some spare time, because I am staying at home now.

I haven't watched soaps in years, not since my children were toddlers and they're in their 40s now. My youngest is 37.

@acelawrites I am busy here on the computer, not really anywhere else. I'm not interested in soaps.

We watch very little television but I know that soapies and dramas can really catch your interest and bring you back day after day.

Thanks, @Marcyaz, I choose those soap operas that have good storylines, with good actors and those that are not boring.

i used to watch them, but really don't now that much. Though i do try to keep caught up on Downton Abbey. That's a bit like a soap opera
