Why don't soaps do catfights like this anymore?

Thank you for posting this. Great Memories of Ellen Parker's character Maureen Bauer. I thought she was fabulous in this scene. The death is this character was so unnecessary.

Because they're degrading and sexist?

I used to love a good catfight until I became a feminist. Now, I just like a simple punch to the face, delivered by the heroine to the villainess. Like, for example, when Carrie punched out Sami and married Austin. No need for a catfight--that punch said everything!!
