Question Who are the most "wholesome" soap characters out there

The first one that comes to my mind or is meant to be presented in such as way is Hope Logan on The Bold and the Beautiful. She's basically the type of character who is written to not judge people and always see the best in others.

Hope has however, been accused of being a "creator's pet":
Quote:
Hope Logan from The Bold and the Beautiful. The writers' love for her results in at least one or two scenes per episode where characters talk about her purity and virtue. She's such a paragon of goodness that after her stepsister's miscarriage, she tries to convince Steffy's husband that it's for the best so that they can be together again. It's hard to swallow a character who we're constantly told is the epitome of goodness acting so cold. Fans are polarized about her, not that it stopped her from being shoved in their faces as if they were trying to make the audience love her... or else.

My vote would probably be for Paul Williams(Doug Davidson) on Y&R. I hear he stated out kinda sketchy but for all the time I watched Y&R(80's, 90's and some of the 2000's)he was always a pretty stand-up guy. Good, honest and moral. Haven't watched for a while so I don't know if any of that has changed.

Stuart Chandler from All My Children. He was the polar opposite of his twin brother, billionaire tyrant Adam (both played by the legendary David Canary). He was kind, loving and completely innocent, and when he fell in love with a young mother named Cindy who had AIDS, he married her and adopted her son, and became his legal guardian when Cindy died. He always gave his wicked brother the benefit of the doubt, even when he continued to do horrible things to everyone in Pine Valley. Truly, one of the sweetest, most innocent characters in soap history, and David Canary was masterful at playing both good and evil in the dual roles!
