    One gets a bit sad when you see how many actors are no longer with us but you also trip at how many actors are STILL ON some soaps.

    🎉 Daytime greetings from coastal Mississippi. I truly enjoyed Your list. I have watched 17 soaps in 40 years, as if 2024. There are only 3 left on broadcast tv. Themes create a memory ....❤

    I loved Another World's animated opening with Crystal Gayle and Gary Morris singing the theme song and OLTL's opening from the final years as well as the 1980s when Peabo Bryson sang the theme song.

      Right. Can't believe that was not on here. It should have been #1. Although I did love Days and Passions. Another world opening was the best.

    • @orionwesley
      @orionwesley ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That was indeed timeless. I can still remember it.

    passions was almost like a national lampoon soap opera. they would have these unrealistic plots, characters that were so commical u couldnt help but laugh.

    I think young and the restless opening is so welcoming =)

    I really enjoyed the openings to Dallas and Santa Barbara. Dynasty and Knott's Landing were iconic as well. Maybe even Melrose Place. Opening themes that make you want to sing or hum along are the best. These tunes still bring back so many nostalgic feels today.

      Josh Baranski my sentiments exactly!

    • @orionwesley
      @orionwesley ปีที่แล้ว

      Primetime shows were a different story altogether! Dallas was amazing, I did like Knots Landing but Melrose Place was what we wanted without knowing we needed it.

  • @MrBJG79
    @MrBJG79 9 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I had to watch the Days of Our Lives openings side by side to realize the difference LOL

    • @ScireTwins
      @ScireTwins 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The 2004 opening was during the serial killer storyline where half the cast was murdered but wound up alive. The change in the song was to throw a hint that things weren't as they appeared.

    I miss that GH opening theme so much. I have it on Dave Koz's "Lucky Man" album.

    I have six favorite soaps that I enjoyed watching as I was growing up in the 1980s are The Young & The Restless, Dallas, The Bold & The Beautiful, Falcon Crest, Knots Landing, and Melrose Place. Every once in a while I also enjoyed Dynasty. Sometimes I would hope Katherine Chancellor, Alexis Carrington, and Angela Channing would all meet together some day. Whether it is a day or night time soap. The 1980s and 1990s was the best time to watch soaps on television.

  • @weirdalfan1980
    @weirdalfan1980 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I know these lists are subjective, but You take me away to (Another world) is really good, its catchy and different than the other soaps.

  • @stanrobertson5765

    I don't understand why General Hospital didn't keep that opening from 2011. Their current one SUCKS!!!

    • @DegrassiInstantStar
      @DegrassiInstantStar 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Production costs. Shortening the opening and using still images was so they didn't have to cut budget elsewhere, unfortunately.

    Bold and the beautiful back in the 90s was the best theme song and soap opera NO SOAP COULD OUTDUE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL BACK WHEN IT WAS GOOD LOL

    • @PaisaEsteban
      @PaisaEsteban 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I love how B&B was able to evolve its music and make subtle changes without changing it until 2000. Even with this change, it wasn't as bad as the one from 2004. Yuck!

    • @PaisaEsteban
      @PaisaEsteban 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm sorry but your mid to late 2000s theme was when soaps became wack as hell. The only good one to me was DOL because they kept the same fomat and AMC because they were the only ones that was still okay during it's later years.
