Members AmandainNC28655 Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 Hey all. I am an educator in North Carolina. In about 5 weeks, I will be off for an 8 week summer vacation. I have always been a long time fan of AMC, OLTL and GH in the 80's, 90's and early 2000's but since AMC and OLTL were cancelled have not tuned in to the soaps much. I've also watched Days, Y&R from time to time. With my 8 week vacation on the horizon, can anyone recommend any soaps to tune into, if any?

Members ChitHappens Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 Nothing on any of the major networks! I'm serious. Not one of them is proving why soaps should still be on air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jo.frank88 Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 It's pretty sad when soap fans are telling you not to watch soaps - but with the current state of all 4 at the moment, that's about the truth. On a positive note, Days has Queen Eileen Davidson returning this summer, as well as KDP from OLTL - hopefully their story will be worth watching!

Members Khan Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 Believe it or not, there are some very good soaps still on the air. Such as "Maury," and "Steve Wilkos," and even "Trisha Goddard." Check them out, I highly recommend them all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Antoyne Posted May 8, 2014 Members Share Posted May 8, 2014 Days this summer should be quite good with the upcoming exits and returns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cyberologist Posted May 8, 2014 Members Share Posted May 8, 2014 Well I really like Own's "The Have and the Have Nots" its third season is premiering May 27th its a real old school soap, diverse, not pimping and propping favs just straight up and let the chips fall where they may. Here's an introduction to the show. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNBGk-A6ucs one of my favorite scenes: The chronologicals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted May 8, 2014 Members Share Posted May 8, 2014 Have and Have Nots? One would be better off sticking to the horrible daytime shows As for the question, all the current soaps stink, some worse than others. I think Days shows the most promise for summer specifically bc of one return, which Im hoping is summer since we heard about it years ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Nate4 Posted May 8, 2014 Members Share Posted May 8, 2014 The Haves and The Have Nots is great. I'm behind though. All the normal daytime soaps suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
