WHAT SOAPS DO YOU WATCH AND FOR HOW MANY YEARS HAVE YOU WATCHED EACH ONE? WHAT GOT YOU STARTED?

I was watching soaps in utero. My mom always watched DOOL, but we switched from NBC to ABC soaps in the late 80’s. I loved loved loved AMC and started watching OLTL too in 2001 or 2002. I am hooked, and my husband and I tivo it so we can watch it together.

FAVORITE MALE CHARACTER FROM EACH SHOW?

GH: This is embarrassing, but I’ve never watched GH enough to make an assessment (gasp!).

OLTL: John McBain, Todd Manning, and Christian Vega… and of course David Vickers

AMC: Tad Martin, Leo Dupres (how I miss him!), David Hayward (sigh)

FAVORITE FEMALE CHARACTER, SAME?

GH: sorry, n/a

OLTL: Natalie Buchanan, Jessica (heavily Tess!) Buchanan, Dorian Lord, Vicki Buchanan, Evangeline Williamson, Roxy (love the hair!)

AMC: Opal, Kendall, Bianca Montgomery, Greenlee Smythe Dupree Lavery… did I get them all?

FAVORITE STORYLINE FROM EACH SHOW YOU WATCH (PAST OR PRESENT)?

OLTL: Hmmm… I loved the silly Mitch Laurence crap. It was so classically over the top and silly, but I enjoyed the high drama of it all. I also loved the gut wrenching scenes surrounding Todd’s execution.

GH: again, n/a

AMC: I loved the romance between Greenlee and Leo. I also adored the long ago relationship between Edmund and Maria (circa the 90’s). They were just lovely together then, weren’t they? Bianca’s coming out… the whole triangulation between Kendall/Erica/Bianca…

LEAST FAVORITE MALE CHARACTER FROM EACH?

OLTL: Okay, ya’ll, I just never got into Joey and was glad to see him go… Antonio Vega (please take your badge off of your necklace!), and River

GH: still n/a!

AMC: JR Chandler. Jake Martin. Jonathan Lavery. Ugg.

LEAST FAVORITE FEMALE CHARACTER FROM EACH?

OLTL: Probably Renee.

GH: n/a, yet again…

AMC: Babe and Krystal, Brooke, Erica Kane

LEAST FAVORITE STORYLINE FROM EACH?

OLTL: Adriana’s stalker storyline…the music box killer…that awful Love Crew thing with the whole stupid stereotypical college students…Al’s transformation into Michael. Egad. Oh, and the ridiculous reprogramming of Christian into “the imposter.” Bleh!

GH: n/a once more

AMC: Gotta be the Tad/Ted vineyard thing from years back. Too silly, even for me! I also hated the Proteus storyline. Babe and that awful cow. Eww. Leslie Colson falling from the building… should I go on?
