Slippery soap

Speaking of obsession, soap operas are the ultimate in housewives' guilty pleasures. They watch every day, but probably are embarrassed to admit it to their husbands. But if their husbands ever watched even one episode, chances are he would be wondering what will happen the next day. Soap operas are great at leaving you hanging, wanting more.

One of my earliest memories of television as a young child was the soap opera All My Children. My mom watched that one faithfully for about twenty years. When I saw a website devoted to All My Children listed at PPP, I had to check it out. I am surprised to see many of the same actors and actresses are still going strong! They look like they've hardly aged at all. They must have really good make-up artists behind the scenes. This website lets you read about all the episodes, including future episodes (appropriately called "Spoilers"). You can go to the message boards and chat with fellow soap addicts. You can also peruse the news area to read about which stars of your favorite soap made headlines and when they will be making any public appearances.

soap


Since Days of our Lives first aired in 1965, chances are they have plenty of devoted fans. I remember in High School, there were some girls who would go home during lunch hour to watch "Days". I personally have never watched it since it came on around lunchtime and I was never a big soap fan, but I know many housewives who are addicted to the show. If you have ever watched soaps, you know that even if you only miss one episode - you could miss a big change in the storyline.

For those who must miss a show, now they can simply visit the Days of our Lives soap website. The site has daily updates so you never have to miss a beat. They also have a news room, which features news about the stars and their public appearances. There are message boards where you can discuss the episodes with other devoted viewers, or get caught up on the latest gossip. The "Spoilers" section lets you know what is going to happen in upcoming episodes.

Registration is free, so if you love your soaps, you should join Soaps.com to get the total experience.
