My Mom born in 1928, has been watching since it aired in 1973, she was 45years old. And she never misses an episode. My Mom is still with us, 94 years old, and still watches it. Her birthday is in August, she will be 95. I got hooked on the show with my mom in 1977. Love ❤ 😍 it.....
Happy 50th not many can last that long in the World or History gosh and it's scary we getting old but grow old with it not a bad thing linking everything emotions memories flooding around the great era so close wish i was there the 80s for me perfection of history pinnacle that was firing on all cylinders who and what we were doin that made it special
This show is a pure masterpiece. In a hundred years some of these storylines will be regarded as well as The Great Gatsby. Not all of it but some of it IMO
This is literally Substitue Invasion from evangelion. Either the writer of the song from the anime movie was inspired by this or it's just a coincidence of using the chords.
Jim Foxx Same here. I grew up in the 90’s watching this show with my grandmother in the summers it came on in NYC area at 12:30 right after the local news and TPIR. That was when CBS daytime had a great line up.
I hear you, man . My Grandma watched this show since before I was born till the day she passed away. Any time this theme song plays, I think of her and about good times. If you listen too the wind on a silent day, You can still hear our Grandma's say" Oh, Jill you bitch!" Or "how could Victor do that?".
On March 26, 1973 I was 21 and I had just given birth to my little baby girl. Later on that afternoon, my nurse came in to change my sheets, and she had asked me if I would mind if she turned on her story. She told me the name of it was the young and the restless, and it was a brand new show that just aired on daytime television. I told her I did not mind, and while she was working in the room I watched the very first half hour episode. The next day it came on and I watched it again… And I’m sure you can figure out the rest LOL. Believe it or not, From that day until this day I have not missed one single episode. My daughter(s) and now my granddaughter watch the show too... I’ve been hooked since day one!
Actually, a pretty nice story, really. Technically, I too like soap operas a little, mostly the themes, but especially episodes of even the 80s / now 'Dynasty'.
My store is almost exactly the same as yours but I was a senior in high school and I would go to my grandmothers house every day after school to check on her and she had me watch it with her that day and from that day forward I’ve never missed an episode I do miss my grandmother but when I watch it I feel like she’s sitting right next to me
Haven't missed one single episode in 47 years huh ? Well I know one thing about you. You like to exaggerate. Never a funeral, never an emergency, never a job w/o a TV, never visited someone who did not get the show. Come on get real, sounds like you almost didn't have a life because of this show if that's true.
That's pretty cool freaky tho the same when it comes to Soap Operas somehow slick and style u have to put Young And The Restless at 49 up there i mean it was number 1 on the Charts i mean Ratings for 21years 80s and 90s up against alot of great shows in that time still going strong and that theme tune which i have like no other it rocks thru all the emotions and memories of every era cause it's still going strong
Exactly me too , I'll be 33 in a few weeks, she's since passed 25 years ago but she was a tough broad but always watched her soaps!!! I liked the dude Adam ... Well because that's my name!
I heard this song when I was probably 4 years old. It was so melancholy, I think it set off a pattern in my brain that triggered decades of depression.
Whenever I think of soap operas, I constantly ask my self "Is there a person on this planet who have seen ALL the episodes of this"? I believe that there is not. Because these shows are literally larger than life. But can you imagine? ONE person still watching this from day one?
My grandpa has been watching this show since day 1. He used to watch it with my great grandma (his mom) when it first came out and my grandpa never stopped watching it after my great grandma passed away. He still watches this show to this day and although he has missed a few episodes over the years, he still has watched almost every episode. Lol
You can add me to the list of one of the original 1973 Y&R fans Stuart Brooks and his 4 daughters, Laurie,Leslie, Chris, and Peggy, Jill, Brad the psychiatrist, later on Katherine Chancellor, and her son Brock Reynolds, Snapper & his brother Greg Foster, their mom Liz and those old classic Y&R little themes like Snapper's theme "Down The Line", and "Bless The Beast & The Children!!!!!!!!!
Jerra Maurice: Magnificent name incidentally! There is an absolutely heartbreaking segment of footage in the great Tribute episode for Miss Jeanne Cooper. One of the cast paying homage starts talking about this Shopping Mall promo tour where everyone just came unglued with joy over the presence of "Katherine Chancellor." The guy who said that was Mr. Kristoff St. John.😔😥B.W.
I remember going to my Lola’s house when I was sick and hearing this theme song with the smell of lumpia and chicken adobo in the air. Miss you Lola and my childhood in general.
Omg this takes me back! My grandma used to watch "her stories" and this was one of them lol. This theme song lives as a permanent memory because of her. But I always loved how beautifully composed it was! I forgot to mention, my mother used to call it " The Young and The Ridiculous" 😂😂
Grandma worked so damn hard. I think this was her only pleasure. I miss that generation. Won a war and built a new one for the kids. Boomers will only leave us broke. RIP all you grandma's that watched and clucked over the arc of the story line.
😭😂😭😂 1990 -1999 are the years that I remember, being the theme throughout junior and high school years. I would catch a few on days when I skipped class and throughout the summer when it was too hot during the day to be outside. my mom forced me to watch it until I actually began to like it. 😭😂😭😂. Great memories.
I didn't realize that Jeanne Cooper was still on as late as 2012. I thought she'd died a bit earlier, but I guess not. I'm glad that the sultry saxophone version of the opening from the early 2000s didn't last long, and they went back to the original. It sounded like the theme song to a bad '50s detective movie.
BTW, that Y and R instrumental "Nadia's theme " is a reference to famed gymnast Nadia Comaneci,i believe she's Russian.Great olympian.Still around today?
2003+ theme songs. I miss these so much!! When I was a kid I would always wake up and hear this before leaving to school. 😭 my mind went through some great memories
omg same! i never understood what the heck happened in this show, though I tried to understand what was going on sometimes. All i can clearly remember is that sweet violin melody with the red drew letters and b&w people doing... stuff in the background.
It's amazing. The Price is Right, Gambit, The Jokers Wild, The $10,000 Pyramid, and The Young and the Restless all premiered in the same season. (1972-73) 45 seasons later. T P I R and Y& R are still on the air.
I was 5 and I remember it like yesterday. Wasn't 5000 channels back then. Most houses only had 1 tv, especially if there were kids in the house. It was like this. In our house, wake up, whoever turned the TV on got first dibs on the shows. If you left the house, too bad! Then when Mom n Dad got around....well if they wanted to watch something, what were we gonna do? Durring the daytime, game shows and then when that Y R piano came on, either sit down and behave, snacks, or take a nap because until 4 it was Soap city! Don't mess your TV at night up by messin' with Mom and her Soaps! 🤗🤔🤣😁
This is a beautiful song! Even though I am not a soap opera fan, I always turn to hear this song at the opening of the show 😍 The song is so soothing 😉
Have you ever listened to Strauss' Blue Danube. I listened to it for the first time in its entirety last night. I cried from the first note. It's tied with this one, for the most beautiful music I have ever heard.
Fantastic song. We had them play this at our wedding while we gave each of the moms a rose. Watched Y&R since very first day. Oh my goodness do I not just feel nostalgic but just plain old. 😂😂😂❤❤❤
ROGER BROWN Omg my moms the same age as you! We watch this show together all the time! You are not old, you’ve just been around longer than some. Nothing to be ashamed of lol❤️
This brings back memories of my grandparents watching this show when I was little and it reminds me of being in their living as a little kid back in 2015.
Thanks, I needed this...I needed a good cry. My Grandmother use to watch this and Covid just took her...I know she wouldnt want me to be sad infront of my family but its okay to cry in private right. im the only male Longclaws left...
I remember my grandma watching this all the time as a kid. My mom said she watched it from early 80s to early 2000s. I'll always remember Victor cause he was so cool to me when I was younger
I love that theme song so much. It's such a gorgeous, soothing piece of music. It makes me sad they stopped using the sketches though. It set the show apart from other soaps.
84-90 was awesome home sick or holidays from School would watch it at lunch we had in this country my Mum watched it, we only had 2channels it was either before or after other super Soap Opera in Days Of Our Lives 2hours we had it on at times over the years but we haven't had it back on taken off since 09
This show and The Bold and The Beautiful are always my great aunts' and my great grandmother's favorite shows of all time. I also remember them whenever I stay with them when I was attending school or when we have breaks from school. I'll treasure them forever but Shout-out to them bc my great Aunt Lois loves them and I'll miss her dearly. 😢😭🕊️🙏🏾✌🏾 RIP Auntie Lois, I'll remember you always and I'll never forget you
I cry every time I listen to this wish I had a good childhood being abused am 31 now an still cant find my way ..as a child I used to watch this with my family ..
Oh my gosh, this brings back so many memories when I was a young child at the babysitters house and she would have soaps on in the afternoon. I don’t think I’ll ever forget any of the theme songs.
I wish that one of the openings selected for this video included Neil, Drucilla, Malcom, Danny, Cricket, Shelia, Lauren, Jill....those were my favorites by in the day. I still love the Abbotts and the Newmans. ❤
Thank you Anthony, I started watching this at 12 years old, 1977. still watch now in 2019.. I love that you can look back and see all the different openings.. Love this..
84-90 for me when i was sick or holidays from School at lunchtime it was on i can remember my Mum watching it u had a double whammy cause Days Of Our Lives was on before or after back to back 2hours we only had 2channels in this country but to be blessed with the greatest decade of all time never to forget miss it so much oh hail the 80s.But reason this show so successful it's that wicked theme tune has all the emotions attached to it and this compliation sums it well in all the eras there's a few here
My grandma has been avidly watching this since it's release in 1973. And we're in 2019 and she's still watching it every week. I hate this show with a burning passion. Been hearing this theme every morning since I was a kid to now. But I'll miss it when she's gone
gosh this brings back so many memories, my mother used to watch this show religiously ,over the years she didnt catch up that much with it due to various circumstances but she is always laughing at the fact that she will pass away and it will still not end anytime soon.
Y&R premiered my freshman year in high school. The Brooks sisters and Snapper Foster were so different than my Grandmother's soaps. Always loved the theme song. Glad they quit the era with the saxophone and went back to sounding more like the original.
I love all the soap operas with The young and the restless, The bold and the beautiful, As the world turns, guiding light, Days of our lives, General Hospital!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I remember my mama as kid. She never missed a single episode from the 70s and 80s. Love those times. Soap operas have more essence in their stories. My Dad was also an avid fan of streets of san Francisco, hill street blues and Kojac. When I was a kid I loved the million dollar man, buck rogers and bionic woman and wonder woman. TV was great then even the wonderful world of disney TV series.
Though i could not tell you a single plot, i remember watching these on days I was sick and stayed home from school. For some reason I remember the theme playing through twice. I always thought this one was the prettiest
Watch it from 1975-present. Even got to meet Jeanne Cooper/Mrs C about 18 years ago. Wonderful lady and experience. From a proud Canadian fan forever. 🇨🇦🦋🌈🌹❤🌞
I watch this with my grandmother when I was growing up and I still watch it and call my grandmother on Sundays and we discussed what happened............
i was born in 05, but my nana used to watch this show religiously. I used to watch it with her, it’s one of my earliest childhood memories. i wonder if she still watches it
Here’s an unpopular opinion: I actually kind of like the 1999-2003 intro. It’s jazzy and kind of spices the whole show up. Yes it was different but it added an aspect that wasn’t previously there.
Presently they have color shots of the cast members and show only the cast members that appear in that day's episode. They only once changed the original theme to that more jazzy theme. I was glad when the switched back to the original.
Last time I checked, my really nice grandmother is still alive- I have short, but somehow nicely preserved memories of being a kid and hearing the 90s closing theme, sometime after really enjoying swimming in her backyard. As an amatuer writer, probably since I was 12, I've LOVE writing stories, SO, I've gradually come to notice from pre-WW2 history, that my family's roots in our own REAL soap opera in our lives traces most likely to the Sudetenland, Hungary and not nearly as much _German_ roots I used to think. Yeah, Hitler turned into the biggest European bully ever seen, other than the actually even (quietly) worse Stalin. Most guys hate soap operas and every single detail about them, BUT, these themes are so incredibly bitter-sweet frankly. Although I somehow still like the 80s version of 'Dynasty', yeah, there's a damn reason why most guys easily hate soap operas: we just want to cut the crap and fix problems BUT, we tend to ignore our own B.S. sometimes- SO, no wonder why many men DO star in soap operas anydamnhow. lol.
My Mom born in 1928, has been watching since it aired in 1973, she was 45years old. And she never misses an episode.
My Mom is still with us, 94 years old, and still watches it.
Her birthday is in August, she will be 95.
I got hooked on the show with my mom in 1977.
Love ❤ 😍 it.....
Same here never knew what soaps were we we’re at school or outside playing it does remind of good times🤔
My mother also watched this series for years ... Emotions waterfall brother❤
Happy 50th not many can last that long in the World or History gosh and it's scary we getting old but grow old with it not a bad thing linking everything emotions memories flooding around the great era so close wish i was there the 80s for me perfection of history pinnacle that was firing on all cylinders who and what we were doin that made it special
good memories!
Thank God she's still alive!!!
If there's anything CBS learned about this show, it's that you don't mess with its opening theme. Anyone agrees?
That new arrangement lasted about as long as it took me to post this comment!
@@gcfifthgearright? I was like wtf with the jarring theme change.
This show is a pure masterpiece. In a hundred years some of these storylines will be regarded as well as The Great Gatsby. Not all of it but some of it IMO
CBS didn't learn its lesson from when it screwed with the opening of Knots Landing in the late 80s
@@DNSKansas Newest reason why Knots Landing got canceled while The Young and the Restless still reigns on to this day.
I feel like I’m in my grandma’s living room again.
I’m glad she’s still alive today.
Anyone else just suddenly feel emotional for no reason while hearing this theme?
I almost started 😢😥
This is literally Substitue Invasion from evangelion. Either the writer of the song from the anime movie was inspired by this or it's just a coincidence of using the chords.
I do; this theme song brings back such wonderful memories!❤ 😥
Me omg....
@ReallySuper 1985 omg I'm crying.......reminds me of being young again

@ahawowow You beat me to it. lol
My Grandma used to watch it
A hauntingly beautiful song that reminds us of simpler times.
Agree 💯
Victor Newman was da man
My nana died when I was 19. I came here because she used to watch YR everyday without fail. Man did the 1990 - 2003 intos hit hard. RIP Nana.
I hear you, man . My Grandma watched this show since before I was born till the day she passed away.

The Y&R theme song is the most timeless soap opera theme song you'll ever hear on Earth.
Exactly
Yeah the original theme was lovely
“Join us again...for The Young...and The Restless”
Love love 💘
I will be... 😊💖
I used to watch this with my grandma when I was in kindergarten
Exactly me too , I'll be 33 in a few weeks, she's since passed 25 years ago but she was a tough broad but always watched her soaps!!! I liked the dude Adam ... Well because that's my name!

My dad taught me this song on the piano when I was five. One of my favorite memories was him teaching me songs on that old Yamaha.
Great memory...I taught myself by ear...although I was beginning to read music...idk just something touching to me. Thanks for sharing.
Cool tune to master
“Join us again for the Young and the Restless.”

Yes. I remember when she died. Sad time.
Part of that saxophone theme is still being used between the first and second half of the show.
The sax is awesome,but I like the Nadia's theme.
BTW, that Y and R instrumental "Nadia's theme " is a reference to famed gymnast Nadia Comaneci,i believe she's Russian.Great olympian.Still around today?

antoinec822 lol,,Mary J
I was just fin to say the same thing!
One of the most Iconic theme song of all time.
The 1990-1999 intro was hands down my favorite.
Watched this with my grandma back in 2010-2014 but sadly she passed and I came here for memories.
2003 -2012 Would hear that everyday from my moms room
It's amazing. The Price is Right, Gambit, The Jokers Wild, The $10,000 Pyramid, and The Young and the Restless all premiered in the same season. (1972-73) 45 seasons later. T P I R and Y& R are still on the air.
Charles allen jr CBS airs two soap opera's: Y&R (12:30-1:30pm) and B&B (1:30-2:00pm)
That counts as the 1972-1973 season. Fall of 1973 is the show's 2nd season and count from there.
The Joker's Wild has been rebooted on TBS

A classic lives forever, the best theme ever!
Song immediately brings tears to my eyes ...
Have you ever listened to
Strauss' Blue Danube. I listened to it for the first time in its entirety last night. I cried from the first note. It's tied with this one, for the most beautiful music I have ever heard.
Fantastic song. We had them play this at our wedding while we gave each of the moms a rose. Watched Y&R since very first day. Oh my goodness do I not just feel nostalgic but just plain old. 😂😂😂❤❤❤
I love watching these it reminds me of my childhood
OMG I'm only 49 and I remember every freaking reset and the original I guess I'm freaking old
ROGER BROWN Omg my moms the same age as you! We watch this show together all the time! You are not old, you’ve just been around longer than some. Nothing to be ashamed of lol❤️
Out of all the actors on the show, imo, Melody Thomas Scott and Eric Braeden are the best actors.
You mean Eric Braeden and Melody Thomas Scott.In the past,they used to show only 6 stars in the opening, now I believe it's 12 or 13 folks.
My grandmother love watching this show also The Bold and the Beautiful 😍
This brings back memories of my grandparents watching this show when I was little and it reminds me of being in their living as a little kid back in 2015.
Such a beautiful soothing melody...Nikki looks gorgeous at 1:50
Jane Doe who is the lady beside victor at 1:58
and at 3:09
Funny you should say Melody because that's Melody Thomas Scott.John and Jane Doe,you're not only correct,you're also smart.

I remember when they changed the music and quickly went back...lol. This show is my childhood ❤
This soap probably will never End
I remember watching this in the 1970s and the beginning of the 80s with my mum during school holidays.
Loved the drawings.
Thanks, I needed this...I needed a good cry. My Grandmother use to watch this and Covid just took her...I know she wouldnt want me to be sad infront of my family but its okay to cry in private right. im the only male Longclaws left...
The only soap to understand you don’t change the theme and when you do you change it back
I remember my grandma watching this all the time as a kid. My mom said she watched it from early 80s to early 2000s. I'll always remember Victor cause he was so cool to me when I was younger
I love that theme song so much. It's such a gorgeous, soothing piece of music. It makes me sad they stopped using the sketches though. It set the show apart from other soaps.
The 75-84 intro was imprinted in to my friggin brain as a kid.
Happy 50th Anniversary to this show, The Young and the Restless. This show has been airing on CBS since the 70's.
1999-03 was sexy imo. it took some time to get to use to but liked it then.
Nope. I hate that.
Eric Braeden played John Jacob Astor in Titanic.
yes he is, and he also appear on "the nanny". 😉😎😎
Eric played Victor on the Young and the Restless many, many years. I remember him when he became Victor Newman in 1980.
He was also on a movie called the ambulance.
Walk in role only
Yes
Definitely needs an update to 2023. Faithful watcher here. ✌
The theme song is so beautiful. I recently became interested in the show thanks to my grandma.
It is called Nadia's theme
A song that takes you back to younger days
84-90 was awesome home sick or holidays from School would watch it at lunch we had in this country my Mum watched it, we only had 2channels it was either before or after other super Soap Opera in Days Of Our Lives 2hours we had it on at times over the years but we haven't had it back on taken off since 09

Oh my gosh, this brings back so many memories when I was a young child at the babysitters house and she would have soaps on in the afternoon. I don’t think I’ll ever forget any of the theme songs.
I wish that one of the openings selected for this video included Neil, Drucilla, Malcom, Danny, Cricket, Shelia, Lauren, Jill....those were my favorites by in the day. I still love the Abbotts and the Newmans. ❤
Whoever did those pencil sketches must’ve gotten a huge raise
Thank you Anthony, I started watching this at 12 years old, 1977. still watch now in 2019.. I love that you can look back and see all the different openings.. Love this..
Great collection, i'm glad they've kept the same theme after all these years, the music is absolutely beautiful!
I've always loved the theme song
Cotton's Dream is the original title.
I love the 90's intro the best. It’s just a classic Soap intro.
1999-2003 the porno years

84-90 for me when i was sick or holidays from School at lunchtime it was on i can remember my Mum watching it u had a double whammy cause Days Of Our Lives was on before or after back to back 2hours we only had 2channels in this country but to be blessed with the greatest decade of all time never to forget miss it so much oh hail the 80s.But reason this show so successful it's that wicked theme tune has all the emotions attached to it and this compliation sums it well in all the eras there's a few here
I was never big into soap operas but always loved the theme to the young and the restless and days of our lives and general hospital as well
Being at home watching soaps with grandma.. nostalgia
My grandma has been avidly watching this since it's release in 1973. And we're in 2019 and she's still watching it every week. I hate this show with a burning passion. Been hearing this theme every morning since I was a kid to now. But I'll miss it when she's gone
My grandmother got me hooked on this show!!! She always called it "The Victor Show"
Remember this show from when i was a kid growing up, at 12 noon weekdays, those days were so nice and peaceful in trinidad miss it so much
2003-2012, was the best,,
I must agree with you.
Exactly
I loved being younger at that time
Gosh! This would take binge-watching to a whole new level!
Well done!! Thanks for sharing this wonderful post!
gosh this brings back so many memories, my mother used to watch this show religiously ,over the years she didnt catch up that much with it due to various circumstances but she is always laughing at the fact that she will pass away and it will still not end anytime soon.
Y&R premiered my freshman year in high school. The Brooks sisters and Snapper Foster were so different than my Grandmother's soaps. Always loved the theme song. Glad they quit the era with the saxophone and went back to sounding more like the original.
I love all the soap operas with The young and the restless, The bold and the beautiful, As the world turns, guiding light, Days of our lives, General Hospital!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What About Another world?
I remember my mama as kid. She never missed a single episode from the 70s and 80s. Love those times. Soap operas have more essence in their stories. My Dad was also an avid fan of streets of san Francisco, hill street blues and Kojac. When I was a kid I loved the million dollar man, buck rogers and bionic woman and wonder woman. TV was great then even the wonderful world of disney TV series.
Though i could not tell you a single plot, i remember watching these on days I was sick and stayed home from school. For some reason I remember the theme playing through twice. I always thought this one was the prettiest
christiansoldier1968 - you may be thinking of "half-time." They always played a few seconds of the theme song about halfway thru the show.
Yea I thought it played twice as well. But anyway such a beautiful tune. Just remembering sick days and doc appointments
The young and the restless... Man, I sure miss my granny.
Grew up with my mom watching y&r - price is right into y&r as a kid. Not bad if you ask me. Many memories.
Watch it from 1975-present. Even got to meet Jeanne Cooper/Mrs C about 18 years ago. Wonderful lady and experience. From a proud Canadian fan forever. 🇨🇦🦋🌈🌹❤🌞
I watch this with my grandmother when I was growing up and I still watch it and call my grandmother on Sundays and we discussed what happened............
Back when I was in the kindergarten I used to watch this with my grandfather and my grandmother before my grandfather passed away with breast cancer.
I am so glad the producers decided to stop using the music of 1999-2003.
i was born in 05, but my nana used to watch this show religiously. I used to watch it with her, it’s one of my earliest childhood memories. i wonder if she still watches it
Here’s an unpopular opinion: I actually kind of like the 1999-2003 intro. It’s jazzy and kind of spices the whole show up. Yes it was different but it added an aspect that wasn’t previously there.
I love this soap.
I remember between the (3) major networks when there were at least 15 + soap operas between 11am - 4pm, now it’s only (4 ) as of 2020
Always thought this was the most beautiful of the themes.
Presently they have color shots of the cast members and show only the cast members that appear in that day's episode. They only once changed the original theme to that more jazzy theme. I was glad when the switched back to the original.
Goosebumps every time! Watching since 1980
thank you for this! i love my history. i aalways think the young and restless theme song was better than bold and the beautiful and as the world turns
That opening from 1999-2003 is just awful. So glad they went back to the classic theme.
10highflush I loved the colour of it. The black and white feels a bit drab sometimes.
Reminds me of New Coke, and how everyone thought it sucked, so they brought back the OG. Same principle here, kinda.
10highflush what were they thinking?
10highflush I thought somebody was going to start making love in that opening.
1984-1990 was the years I remember when my big sis used to baby sit us for summer vacation
This song is childhood summer break from school for me.
1999-2003 - A period I'd rather forget...
Last time I checked, my really nice grandmother is still alive-
I have short, but somehow nicely preserved memories of being a kid and hearing the 90s closing theme, sometime after really enjoying swimming in her backyard.
As an amatuer writer, probably since I was 12, I've LOVE writing stories, SO, I've gradually come to notice from pre-WW2 history, that my family's roots in our own REAL soap opera in our lives traces most likely to the Sudetenland, Hungary and not nearly as much _German_ roots I used to think.
Yeah, Hitler turned into the biggest European bully ever seen, other than the actually even (quietly) worse Stalin.
Most guys hate soap operas and every single detail about them, BUT, these themes are so incredibly bitter-sweet frankly.
Although I somehow still like the 80s version of 'Dynasty', yeah, there's a damn reason why most guys easily hate soap operas: we just want to cut the crap and fix problems BUT, we tend to ignore our own B.S. sometimes- SO, no wonder why many men DO star in soap operas anydamnhow. lol.
Suddenly I’m taken back to having a sick day from school At my grandmothers.
Many school breaks and summers were spent with my grandma and the soaps on CBS. From 12:30-3:00pm you shut up or went to play outside.
I just remember my grandma having this on every time I went over
