Coronation Street used to always be switched on in our house but I can't say that I watched it.

My mom was a big General Hospital fan so I watched that a lot as a kid
I also watched As The World Turns.  I don't care for soaps that much anymore.

I haven't watched soaps for years and years and years.  But, I sure loved them back in the 1960's when Lucy and Audrey were on General Hospital, and Victoria Lord was Nicky half of the time, and Barnabus Collins kept things going on Dark Shadows.

We have around half a dozen long-running soaps over here in the UK. Can't see them ever ending!

Hi, I've been hooked on Days Of Our Lives for many years.  Lately though I've been switching channels because I was upset about the kidnapping storyline with Baby Sydney.

unfortunately I've never sat down actually watched soaps, but I know quite a few people who love them!

I had no idea that some of them were being cancelled.
I used to be an avid General Hospital fan. 
I see it on the soap opera channel, so I know it's still there. Even same characters as when I used to watch years ago...scary.

Long Long ago I used to watch Days of our lives
right back to the very first episode....and I watched the Y&R.but not for years now.I think somewhere the story lines got too ridiculous and everyone had been married to everyone eventually and I had a life to live ...I guess.Some howthey just don't fit in today like they used to.

Well you know me...  I'm waiting for the Dr. to arrive today to spill the beans (but of course that will take at least a week to unfold).  And then, of course there's the DNA test.  Oh, and let's not forget - "Who is Ryder's mother?" (or do you already have that one figured out.

I used to watch soap operas, but not so much now! I think you make a good point on the drugs that are pushed during that time slot! sam
