chatty lady Writer Registered: 02/24/04 Posts: 20267 Loc: Nevada	I have never watched soaps, not evening night time ones like Dallas. When I was expecting my first born and took naps or rests during the afternoon I began watching General Hospital, watched it for a week and then said yuk! Haven't turned one on since and that was 44 years ago. I will say they give their actors longevity, some have grown old on the different soaps.

It came on shortly after we were married. He was in optometry school and I was working. I'd come home from work right before the show with a large pizza and we would eat the whole thing while watching Dallas. the thought of eating a whole pizza scikens me these days. I could never eat that much, that late, then fall asleep. grwoing old is so much fun!

I just loved John Forsythe and I thought Crystal Carrington was so beautiful. I don't think Linda Evans has aged that well. But I loved General Hospital and All My Children. I have seen Susan Lucci twice during Soap Opera weekend in Disney. I have tons of photos of her on my website. She is 59 or 60 now and so pretty and tiny. Louisa

Mother Mystic Member Registered: 04/30/06 Posts: 30 Loc: Rhode Island	I started watching the soaps in Junior High, rushing home each day to watch Dark Shadows. Summer vacations I got hooked on All My Children (which I still watch). I got home earlier in High School and started watching One Live to Life and General Hospital. When Luke and Laura got married, the college I was attending set up a tv in every building so students could watch the ceremony. I don't watch as regularly as I did when my kids were babies but it's nice to see the same people, now older and in some cases wiser, kind of like seeing an old friend. Mother Mystic

Marmie Member Registered: 04/08/06 Posts: 21	Speaking of Luke and Laura. Do you ladies remember the hype around that? The odd thing was that Luke had initially raped Laura who was married to Scotty at the time. Yet the viewing audience sided with Luke making Scotty out to be the bad guy. I could never figure that one out. [ May 24, 2006, 02:41 PM: Message edited by: Marmie ]

Mother Mystic Member Registered: 04/30/06 Posts: 30 Loc: Rhode Island	Yeah, me either. Was it supposed to have "awakened an unknown secret desire" in her like the old bodice rippers? Definitely not P.C.! I actually cheered for Scotty to get her back for the longest time. I never thought Luke was attractive and to me Scotty was a hottie. I named my 2nd child Robert because of the character Robert Scorpio, I just loved the way it sounded when Emma Samms called his name. Mother Mystic
