[QUOTE="Gabriel Maxwell, post: 99994, member: 121"] As far as I'm concerned the best soap of the 1990s was MELROSE PLACE, in the 2000s I'd have to go for DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES and in the current decade of course my beloved REVENGE (though I'm immensely enjoying the new DYNASTY and hope it has a long and fun run). What makes these shows soaps? Serialized structure, dramatic cliffhangers, affluent lifestyles, female-centric narrative, lots of fabulous women with bitchy lines and hot men with washboard abs. In terms of audiences, I also thinks soaps are the shows that don't do well with male demos (because they don't usually dig all of the above). [/QUOTE]
