Rank Your Soaps


Recommended Posts

  • Members

I saw this done in the SB group I'm in on facebook and thought it would be fun to bring it over here. So, how do you rank your soaps? This isn't meant to be current, but rather, all-time, of all the soaps you've ever watched in your lifetime, rank your favorites from 1st to last.

Fun thread. Here are mine top 10, with my favorite eras. So sad that most of my faves are long gone, and that of the ones that remain, I haven't found any of them good in at least 10 years. But I still watch...I can't help myself :)

1. Ryan's Hope (1976-1985)

2. All My Children (1976-1998)

3. General Hospital (1976-1986...sorry, never cared for the Labine stuff)

4. Edge of Night (1976-1983...loved all the Slesar stuff; the last year with Lee Sheldon as HW wasn't great)

5. One Life to Live (1977-1980; 1984-1987...never got into any of the Gottlieb-Malone stuff)

6. Guiding Light (1982-1984; 1987-1992...mostly the Pam Long years)

7. Another World (1976-1980; 1983-1987)

8. Texas (1981-1982...the last year was PHENOMENAL)

9. Loving (1983-1986...the first three years were great classic, traditional soap opera, esp. in a time when so many shows were doing spy melodrama)

10. Capitol (1982-1985)

I've also watched Y&R, ATWT, Search, and the Doctors, and still keep up with Y&R, but never found them that entertaining, though I've discovered some good Y&R stuff from the Bell era on youtube.
