Members Scotty Posted January 1, 2007 Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 Goal #1, reach Dark Shadows; Goal #2 , reach OLTL. If I set down 24/7 straight for a week or two, maybe I can finally reach that second goal. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted January 1, 2007 Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 I recommend Matt's amazing Soap Opera History, which is a list of *all* US daytime soaps, with basic info on *all* of them. There's some neat storyline info on the a lot of the older ones (the ones that came out between 1949 and 1965) and Family Trees for all of the current soaps plus AW. Some pictures for a lot of them too, and my favorite part, SOD synopses from all of the soaps from the 1975-1978 period. It's a really great site, one of the best online.

Members juniorz1 Posted January 2, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 2, 2007 Thanks Steve, but I want them in order of their cancellation date. Only the 9 current soaps are arranged by longevity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted January 2, 2007 Members Share Posted January 2, 2007 I think you forgot EON, Steve. I think you accidentally put EON's Y/M/D next to Y&R and skipped over EON. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SteveFrame Posted January 2, 2007 Members Share Posted January 2, 2007 Thanks AMS. I checked my list and it is there. I just somehow erased it out when I transferred. I will try to correct that later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
