Somehow Soap Opera is getting boring to me.
What can they do to get high ratings?
I alreadly listed 10 things...
1. End homosexual
2. Stop having interracial relationship
3. Make marriage longer and more serious
4. Stop having characters sleeping around
5. Pay less to Stars of the show and bring more characters (actors)
6. Stop incest
7. Bring back Christian value and other religion
8. Bring back the actors who made Soap Opera interesting in the first place
9. Have nice dating (to see how they develop relationship) want to feel the chemistry and romance
10. Why not have *The Next Soap Opera Star* game.... we can vote and the winner be on soap.

Soaps aren't dead. Sounds like you need to get an interest in something else. I don't see them changing.

The 10 items you listed are the reasons people DO watch soap operas. The producers of these shows don't care about the issues, only ratings. And they know what gets ratings: The items you listed.
I find them boring, too and haven't watched them since I was in my 20s. But evidently enough people do to keep the shows making money and bringing in the ratings.
Maybe they need some Christian soap operas? But, really...the whole idea of a soap opera is to show the drama around people who mis-behave.

on an identical time as soaps themselves have complicated memories concerning romance, betrayal, and dark kin secrets and strategies, the story in the back of the term "cleansing soap opera" is easy and squeaky clean. interior the Twenties, radio replaced into booming, and broadcasters had to get advertisers in on the act to extend their station's income. So radio stations confident companies that offered kin products to sponsor radio shows. To attraction to the main considerable shoppers of those products -- lady homemakers -- the radio stations created the sunlight hours serial drama format. the 1st radio cleansing soap opera ran in Chicago and replaced into backed by a margarine enterprise. quickly, each and all of the networks had serials geared in the direction of women folk, and companies advertising cleaners and food products rushed to sponsor the shows. case in point, Proctor & Gamble's Oxydol cleansing soap powder backed a favourite serial drama in 1933. by 1939 the clicking began calling the shows "cleansing soap operas" because of the fact this type of fantastic type of have been backed by cleansing soap manufacturers.

I watch All My Children and LOVE IT. Granted, I am sick of Zendell... Oh well. Ava is annoying too. I would like to see one marriage that lasts with no infidelity though - every soap should have one normal/stable couple.
