Surviving Soap Operas are Thriving

A few years ago, it seemed the daytime Soap Opera’s days were numbered and several long-time shows were cancelled. But then a funny thing happened, the ones that survived got a lot better. The New York Post says the four remaining network soaps, “The Young and the Restless”, “The Bold and the Beautiful”, “General Hospital” and “Days of Our Lives” are posting their best ratings in years. TV Guide Reporter Michael Logan tells the Post, the loss of 4 landmark shows so quickly, “scared the crap out of a lot of people.”
