Of watching with my grandmother. Watched Off and on thru the years then I started up again in earnest about the time of Luke and Laura, and also watched the other ABC ones. Taping and watching in the evenings.

Somewhere in the 2000s, after the demise of One life and All My Children, I started drifting off, no longer recording GH but would occasionally tune when home, sick in bed. Never long enough to get hooked into storylines. Last fall I caught a couple of episodes of GH and it was nice seeing a few familiar faces, but made me nostalgic for the 80s, Luke, Laura, Scorpio, Holly, etc.

Soaps were such fun and am not embarrassed to admit I loved them. Also Loved the Soapnet network for the time we had it. Wish we had something like it now, only as a “classic Soap rerun” channel. I would subscribe to that. Would love to rewatch Ryan’s Hope, AMC, One Life, old GH, The Doctors, Days, Y&R etc.

And thank you so much for the link!!!!
