From what I have seen of soaps, barely anything happens in any specific episode. My sister used to watch something called Passions I think. It was a supernatural soap opera. There was this one character that was supposed to be a Dwarf or something. My sister had it on everyday one week. I would be in the room sometimes while it was on, and all week the Dwarf was being menaced by a crocodile. On Friday, it was still going on, like only a few minutes had passed ...

Yeah, soap plots move at a glacial pace, and they have so much exposition, its almost as if the writers think the audience have the memory of a goldfish. I remember passions, there was a witch named Tabitha, and she had a talking doll named Timothy(played by a child like dwarf).

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] The overarching plot of Days revolves around the Brady, and DiMera families. Apparently, there was a feud between the families in the old country(Ireland, I think?). The Bradys are working class stiffs, good guys, and the DiMeras(evil) are rich, and run some kind of company,(Im not sure what they do, fashion, maybe?) As for characters, soaps have big casts, and characters periodically go on hiatus, meaning that they arent on the show for a while. And yes, sometimes an actor leaves the show, and a new person takes over the character. When a new actor appears for the first time a voice says, the character X is now played by Y.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote] It's a massively on-going plot in the sense that most of the main characters are descendants of the original characters from the 60s. It has never been rebooted as a show, and they do replace actors. --- Remembering the EPICNESS one GameFAQs post at a time. ... Copied to Clipboard!

thronedfire2 posted... The number of years some actors have stayed on soaps is even crazierI've heard that soaps are an ideal project for an up and coming actor to get into, because they last for a long time and they're a steady paycheck. Acting tends to be a vocation where you're between jobs a lot, so something like Days of our Lives or any number of cheap television fill-in shows are a godsend because it's a steady paycheck in a volatile market. Sometimes you wanna go out and be the leading man, other times you find your calling and enjoy both job security and a consistent income. --- People say friends don't destroy one another - what do they know about friends?

coolcono posted... It reminds me of the time someone buried another character alive on Days of Our Lives. That was my first episode. Carlys funeral. But she was still alive. Vivian Allamain had her drugged to appear dead, buried alive with stuff that keeps her alive and a radio ao she could talk her her. When she was rescued she had lost her memory I think and left the show, I think she returned years later for awhile. --- http://i.imgur.com/hRsG4.jpg https://i.imgtc.com/zZQ38Hb.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Z4cir.gif http://i.imgur.com/qEyGS.gif https://imgur.com/37KDT ...

The best part is you would have an episode about Thanksgiving where the events last three weeks and then the next day in the show is Christmas! A year in soap time is like 20ish days of a real year.

I also loved the Kristen/Penelope storyline. The actress for Kristen ended up playing like 4 characters at the same time.

I used to watch Passions .. good stuff. Eventually it was cancelled by NBC but picked up on by some random TV station that wasn't basic cable so I never finished the final season or two that was on that. My Mom watched Days so I got into it as well for a few years. I remember the storyline where Marlena was possessed was when I started. Big fan of Stefano. --- "I can eat 50 eggs." -Cool Hand Luke ...

I was watching when it was Vivian in the coffin. Eventually it got too maddening to see the show put up Rafe (corrupt cop) and Sami (kidnapper of her biological child) as the good guys. But I did get to see the final return of Aileen Sorkin as Calliope. I was like "That sounds like Harley Quinn."
