What's weird is that both openings are so different from each other and convey a totally different image of the show. When I watch the first one I think of a typical soap, but based on the second opening, I'd think it was some Gothic/mystery serial. I was waiting for someone to turn into a vampire tongue.png

I watch it more now, I didn't like it at the beginning. They didn't build up the relationship with the protagonists, they married them in the first 2 episodes. They met in episode 1, fell in love and after a few seconds, we had a "one year later" moment with the preparation for their wedding. It was ridiculous.

The main villains (Nives and Stephen) have a huge fanbase in Croatia, they are the reason people started watching the show. I love them both, the actors are great. The show struggled with the ratings for the first 100 episodes (which were boring as hell) and then they replaced the script writers, the show became soapy and now the audience has recovered. They even received a renewal for a second season.

The new writers got rid off the useless/annoying characters like those two guys (bartenders) from the first opening. They both left town. Anna, one of the villains, was killed off after her whole affair with her father in-law was revealed (she carried his child at the time).

LMAO the second one was an inspiration to Turkish soap openings, I guess.

Yes. But still titled a soap opera.

We never actually had *daytime* soaps. The soaps that aired 5 days a week aired between 7-8 p.m.

Goda Grannar, Rederiet, Tre Kronor, Varuhuset, Lösa Förbindelser and Svenska hjärtan were all once-a-week soap operas. Like Dallas, Dynasty and Falcon Crest who all count as soap operas (at least in Sweden).

The rest 5 times a week soaps.

    • He needs to divorce her arse with her constant cheating.   She's no better than Doug... she's F*cking pathetic.
    • I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.
    • As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.
    • I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.
    • So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
    • So Doug just leaves Vanessa there with Joey? He's a f*cking loser. Vanessa needs to divorce his arse 
    • Tina Sloan tied Jerry VerDorn record when Guiding Light was cancelled - 26 years uninterrupted 
    • Very true...but TPTB all were desperate to get into prime time or films and couldn't, so they looked down on their own industry and tried to infuse themes that just didn't work in soaps. I would have thought after 9/11 the shows would have gone out of their way to provide that warmth and comfort that the audience wanted, and to bring old viewers back. Budget cuts? Just bring back kitchen sets, both ATWT and GL got rid of those besides one each..(the Snyders and the Bauers) You don't need super fancy sets if you have the writing. 
    • LMAO they didn't
