I watched GH during the Luke & Laura years...when I was in college (totally dating myself!)
I remember my grandmother was a big As The World Turns fan...

In 6th grade when I had mono, I was addicted to Santa Barbara. Or was at least too tired to flip the channel. :)
Anyone remember that soap?
It's hot and it's monotonous.
I want my glasses.

Posted: 7/27/04 at 4:04pmI have been known to watch passions. It is SOOOOO bad, even by soap standards, but it is HILARIOUS. (and Justin hartley as Fox Crane is wonderful to look at too)

I watched "Guiding Light" for awhile.
To those of you who are fans, I watched from when Kimberly J. Brown played Mara Shane until Laura Bell Bundy played Mara Shane.
After that, it was too hard to keep up.
I starred in a short film called Magnetic Personality. Check it out!

I watched Days hardcore years ago... but after like the 5th time Stefano returned I figured I'd had enough.
I also used to be completely addicted to Passions when it first came out.. now it's just gotten so fcuking cheesy I cant bear to watch it.

Posted: 7/28/04 at 12:41ami also watched and followed passions for a while but it's so fustrating if you can't fast forward commercials b/c the dialogue moves so slowly, sheridan and louis - my favorite couple

Been watching Y&R for many lazy summers, and when I don't have class. Actually drove to Genoa City to send a postcard to my grandmother who is also addicted, telling her to stop spreading insidious rumors about Victor Newman. Signed it Victor, and she thought it was real for a few minutes. Poor lady.
Michael is my favorite character btw.

Passions seems to be one of those shows that is SO bad, you just can't help but watch it (well, that's my story at least).

I agree, Michael is a great character. And the actor is even better!
