I also love that they still have a very large cast. A lot of soaps tend to cut down on their characters to save money

I feel the same Ryan. Coronation Street is not wat it was ten years ago, and ten years ago it wasn't what it was twenty years before that, but I still find it more watchable than any America soap.

It's lost a lot of its humor, is much darker, more violent, more American in its approach. More plot driven. But it hasn't lost me yet and I have been watching on and off since childhood in the 1960s.
