I guess one could count Spyder Games in 2001, but that was always meant to work in a telenovela-ish serial format of seasons from my understanding (and was on MTV of course).I don't think this is as much of a long-shot that people think. The Talk has been doing badly and P&G (!!!) getting involved with this makes me think they see opportunities in this. I think the covid pandemic, the strikes and failures of streaming platforms might have something to do with this - ultimately, soaps is a stable income, year-round income. Depending on how you schedule them, they might last you through a pandemic (like DAYS did), or at least have a very short turn-around. They aren't affected by strikes and since this will be owned by CBS it's stable income.</blockquote>
