I don't know if these types of threads are usually done here; but with how dreadful the soaps have become I thought we could reminisce. Daytime has almost NO good couples right now, so I thought this might be fun! Which couples had you tuning in everyday? Which ones do you miss?

 

Here are my personal favorites:

 

5.Josh and Reva(GL)

4.Mason and Julia(SB)

3.Steve and Kayla(DOOL)

2.Luke and Laura(GH)

1.Jason(SBu) and Sam(GH)

 

Honorable mentions:

Jack and Carly(ATWT)

Tom and Margo(ATWT)

Greg and Jenny(AMC)

Tad and Dixie(AMC)

Bo and Nora(OLTL)

John and Marlena(DOOL)

Bo and Hope(DOOL)

Doug and Julie(DOOL)

Sonny and Brenda(GH)

Cass and Frankie(AW)

Ridge and Brooke(B&B)

80's & 90's Victor and Nicki(Y&R)

Thought of a couple more!

I haven't watched much daytime outside of Y&R, B&B and AW until recent years, so my list is probably a little generic, but anyway:

 

Ridge and Taylor (B&B, pre-2005)

Lauren and Michael (Y&R)

Cass and Frankie (AW)

Erica and Dimitri (AMC)

Bo and Hope (Days)

Dru and Neil (Y&R)

My top two all-time favorite supercouples will always be DAYS' Bo & Hope and GL's Josh & Reva.

(But kudos to DAYS for still keeping John & Marlena around)

Was there ever a time when a thread like this didn't come off as generic?

What is generic about people discussing their likes? Current state of daytime leaves us with little positive things to discuss. Talking about favorite couples THAT WE HAVE ACTUALLY SEEN not just read about is our prerogative. 

 

SFT...Cagney/ Suzi, Liza/ Kentucky, Liza /Travis

 

LOV... Jack/Stacey

            Alex/Egypt, Alex /Ava

              Shana/Dane

               Kate/Louie

 

AW    Cass and Cecile    comedic gold,  -- NF was way too talented to be let go

 

CAP   Kelly/Trey

TD   Nick/Althea

I'm more interested in the whys of people's favorites instead of seeing a list of favorites with no reasoning behind why they like whomever even if it is I like couple A because I found them hot, I liked couple B because I found them funny, and couple C would make me cry.  (I don't know if I'm explaining what I mean, but that's just my preference.)

Most of my favorite couples I enjoy because I get emotional feelings in a lot of different ways and not just liking them for heat.

haha I probably should have elaborated. My exposure to Daytime is not as extensive as I'd ideally like it to be, I'm not so sure as to how many we got out here in Australia besides Days, AW, Y&R and B&B. A lot of other gems are still a working progress. AMC's a new favourite though. Oh, the joys of YouTube.

Santa- Keith'Gina    Mattson/Deas  were not only funny but also tender. Their scenes with young Justin Gocke (Brandon ) were some of SB's best.

            Cruz/Eden  ... A sweeping romance with two strong characters 

 

EON   Sky/Raven    Gabet/Malloy had a way of making everything they were given work.  From comedy to drama to romance, they always rose to the occasion.

Thank you so much for posting old episodes of Y&R and B&B!
