This. The people who used to watch soaps now watch Real Housewives et al.

I grew up watching them and kicked the habit maybe 20 years ago. I’d happily rewatch my shows from 70s-90s, but I don’t want to watch new episodes.

Days of Our Lives is my guilty pleasure, but I can’t stand the hugely long blocks of commercials (especially the annoying ones for prescription drugs) during the show. Even if you watch it On Demand, the system will not let you fast forward them. If you were to cut them out, then the show itself would only be about 35 minutes.

I used to watch GH a lot. I do find that much of it is very repetitive and I used to basically just watch the Friday episode because they would recap everything that happened that week and end with a cliffhanger.

I mean I watch shows like Chicago med which feels like an hour long weekly soap. So maybe. But then it wouldn't be a soap. It would just be a soapy esque show like desperate housewives.

No. They are so trashy.

Soaps are endlessly entertaining and honestly feature some of the best working actors in the business (not celebrities, but people who work a 9 to 5 to bring these outrageous characters to life.)
The daily 1-hour episodes are always in danger of being cancelled...but I am like...can they do the one hour, and then edit THAT down to a quick synopsis of a half-hour episode...and then have a longer 1.5 hour long episode released on Friday we can curl up and watch on the weekend or while we're doing chores?
