Rooster, no I was not really aware they still had soap operas...even though I came from that era (rather long ago now!), but I have never been able to watch even one soap opera all the way through......just not my cup of tea I guess...
UNLESS that is, you count Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, which was something of a spoof on soap operas I think? Anyway I think this photo might actually be Carol Burnett parody, but you get the idea anyway? I DID kinda like Mary Kay Place, too!
