Worst soap opera?

all of them suck

^^ This.

Anyone remember Prisoner Cell Block H ? Surely that had to be worst soap ever. It was so poorly written and acted that it became a laughing stock. Even the sets were pants. The cell walls would wobble when the guards closed the cell doors. :D

The sound / theme tune of Coronation St, was enough to drill it into me, from a very young age that I would NEVER EVER want to EVER move up North.
 
They're all completely terrible, though you need to watch some US ones to get an entirely different perspective on them. I remember seeing a few episodes of Days Of Our Lives when I lived in SA a long time ago, not really knowing what sort of TV show it was. The storylines were completely ridiculous; a woman who lived in a hut near a bayou because she'd been outcast from town (despite being stunningly beautiful under all that mud and dirt), a woman who was a princess in a previous life/previous marriage/alternative universe, a crazy scientist trying to control people's minds with chips planted in their brains. Then all the usual day-to-day boring stuff of your typical soap. The fact that I can remember all that after 13 years says it all really.

Then there's the product placement:

Honestly, it'd almost be funny to watch if it didn't feel like you were being slowly lobotomised by doing so.

It all make Friends all the more funnier.

My name is Dr Drake ReMoray! And it's evil twin and brain transplant. :D
 
Can't stand soap operas. Second worst thing on TV after reality TV programmes. The amount of crap that occurs within one street or small community, makes me laugh.
 
Not often we get a thread where the first response to the OP is the correct response but we have it here.
