Sundays in Salem

"And when did you plan on telling me that you and Roman made love when you were hostages in Stefano DiMera's castle?"

It's lines like this, and totally insane storylines that are totally awesome! I love soap operas with a passion. Even when I was in the 4th grade I would stay at home in the afternoon in the summer an flip around through channels. The ultimate to me is The Young and the Restless (but I will save that love for another day).

When I have free time and want to veg out, I tend to turn the TV on to SoapNet. The best thing on that channel is Sunday's in Salem. They show a whole weeks worth of Days of Our Lives Sunday nights. And Days of Our Lives is crazy. There is a lot of really bad acting, really stupid story lines and just overall wonderful campiness.

Right now, Marlena has amnesia because she fell down the stairs during a fight between John Black and Roman Brady over the paternity of her baby. Bo and Hope are on a sailboat trying to save some characters from Tony Dimera. Jack is hiding from Jennifer the fact that he is dying of an unknown disease, but the rest of Salem seems to know. And Mimi, possibly the worst acress in all of daytime, just told her boyfriend that she had an abortion, and let him know that about 10 other people knew before him. And these are all pretty tame stories compared to the serial kliller storyline of the past few years, where it turned out that all the characters who were murdered weren't really dead, but prisoners on an island called New Salem.

This shit is good, yo!
