Ironically Soap would've never made on the air but shows like Married With Children, Family Guy, and Friends flourished.

I personally think Soap was better acted/written than the other shows you mentioned!! The Tates/Campbells were one of the wackiest, funniest families in TV history!!

Weird how controversial Soap was back then, and how today it would easily be acceptable on television. LOL, don't know if that's necessarily a good thing, but I don't care, I love Soap.

Oddly enough, I'm using one of the clips from this show for my religion project. I wonder how my teacher's going to react to that...

LOL, my religion teacher loved it!! He said that it was pretty creative to choose clips from that show to demonstrate forgiviness.

I used the scene where Jessica is sitting in the kitchen with Billy, Eunice, and Corinne. They ask her how she could still love Chester and she explains that they all loved him at different times and that they shouldn't stop because he had framed her for murder.
