[QUOTE="Carrie Fairchild, post: 410072, member: 673"] I’ll be giving it a go for a couple of reasons. For one, this is the first time in my adult life that I’ll have the chance to watch a US daytime soap from its inception in real time. I watched [I]Sunset Beach[/I] from the beginning when I was a teen but the others that premiered around that time ([I]Port Charles, Passions[/I]) weren’t aired over here and weren’t freely available online in that pre-streaming era. Secondly, I don’t have a current US soap as part of my (admittedly sporadic) viewing rotation. I tried to get into [I]B&B[/I] again a few years ago (picking up in 2016 I think, when Eric & Quinn just got engaged) but I just found it as repetitive as I did when I last watched it in the mid-00’s. I’ve never watched [I]General Hospital[/I] (mostly down to lack of viewing options over the years), I tried [I]Days[/I] but never got into it and despite liking [I]Y&R [/I]when I watched it regularly in the mid-00’s, I moved away from where it was being aired daily and never went back to it when the opportunity arose through online options in recent years. I’m also hopeful that it’ll over something fresh to the genre. [/QUOTE]
