Does anyone remember the CBS campaign called Rumors? I'm gonna try to remember the lyrics... "Rumor has it... Suspicions Grow... See it on CBS and see what's so... I've heard so many rumours that I don't know what to believe....Rumor has it... Suspicions Grow... See it on CBS and see what's so" The daytime stars would be in side profile and then turn to face the camera.

NBC did one in the 80s called, It'll excite you.

I love the It'll Excite You! You can see a boatload of Santa Barbara ads with that. Here's a more generic one - remember when soaps were fun?

This promo made me so excited for Passions.

And one John/Marlena fan made a Promo/Trailer which was amazing.

The Affair Trailer

The Possession Trailer

Oh Gosh, Thank you Carl! Haven't seen those in forever and I suck at finding things on Youtube.

Santa Barbara had some great promos. There's one early in this where various characters ask Mason how he'll get Mary back, complete with dramatic music and wicked laugh from Mason. There's an ad at about 3:10 "Santa Barbara makes you so mad you could spit." and then "makes you want to slap her face."

Loved the promos for Todd's first return on OLTL from 1996

Best promo of 2011 (the AMC one)

I actually liked the cheesetastic ones CBS did in summer 1997.

I loved the promos Santa Barbara did for Lenore Kasdorf, Kristin Meadows, and Robin Mattson, having a little reference to their previous soaps. They start at about 1:30.

DAYS did ads like this for Genie Francis and Robert Woods.

I loved the cheesy late 90s CBS promos. That announcer's voice was AWESOME.

This ad is a lot better than the actual story was.
