It's getting bad for SeeBS when people won't watch their daytime drivel.

Just think how CBS will have reduced their carbon footprint by cancelling these two (stupid, makework) soaps.

It’s getting harder and harder for young actors now. Soaps were traditionally how they learned their chops.

CBS is canceling the soap opera "As the World Turns" after more than a half-century on the air. The good news is that they are extending The Price Is Right to a 4 hour long show!

To tell the truth, I’ve never, ever watched a soap opera in my life. But I get the impression that they have degenerated over the years, from family and neighbor shows to sexual degenerate shows.
So it’s not surprising that something that started off with the title “Guiding Light” (now what would THAT mean?) was the first to go.
Then “As the World Turns.”
So they’re left with “The Young and the Restless” and “Bold and Beautiful.”
I’m just going by the titles, but it seems obvious which way they’re moving, desperately trying to keep a young audience that might sell a few ads.

Most of the garbage on the evening news rivals any soap in sleazy content. Throw in a bunch of cheap “reality” shows, and why would a network air soaps? They have the content at a fraction of the cost.

For my wife it’s General Hospital! :)
If you knew her, you’d be surprised to know she watched a soap.
