Wow! What a list. I'm going to age myself but here goes...

I've watched:

Dark Shadows (I watched it as a little girl when I got home from school. I still remember images from it. It started a life-long fascination with vampire books, movies and TV shows.)
General Hospital (I started watching after school at age 6 and have never stopped!)
Ryan's Hope (This is when I fell in love with our Mike on GH.)
The City
In college, when I had time on my hands, I watched One Life To Live and All My Children.

Oh!...and I also watched Edge of Night for a short time!

Well I never watched most of those 64 soaps, the one's I've watched have been Days, AW, & GH. Out of the three my favorite might be old-school Days (93-99) just cause I've watched it off and on for the last 15 years. GH is second and AW places a distant third cause I only watched for a year or so. Right now my favorite is GH but the 90's Days was the era I watched religiously so it's staying at the top of my all-time favorite soaps list.

Another World (watched for as long as I can remember)
Edge of Night (the King of murder mysteries on a soap)
General Hospital (watched for...gosh...at least 30 years with a few years missed due to work and school (pre soap-net)
All My Children
Days Of Our Lives
Young and the Restless
One Life to Live
Bold and the Beautiful (very breifly)
Sunset Beach (briefly)

GH of course! (Impressive keyboard skills by the way!)

Followed by Y&R and B&B.

I did watch Edge of Night for some reason, I must've been 5 or so! Oh and I liked Port Charles. My mom wouldn't let me watch Dark Shadows, too scary!

General Hospital is my favorite. I used to watch quite a few though. At one point I was watching...

Y & R, Bold & Beautiful, Days...(so a lot of flicking back & forth) One Life to Live, and Guiding Light. That was before my friend introduced me to GH...and since then I've only watched GH....and OLTL from time to time.

GL and GH are the only show I watch currently. I'd have to say that GL is still my favorite because of my history with the show, I only started watching GH about a year ago.

I watched Y&R and B&B years ago, probably just because my mom had it on growing up.
I also have watched Days and ATWT but quit about a 1 1/2 ago.

Also I watched Sunset Beach for the few years it was on.

I've tried to watch AMC on soapnet but just cant get into it at all.

I fell in love with Grant Show from Ryan's Hope.

I would definitely have to say that DOOL. I watched that show my whole life, and I can't seem to stop.

I would also say Another World. I watched that with my grandma all the time.

And of course GH. I have watched this for about 2 and 1/2 years!!!!

I tried watching YR but it was too boring for me. I will watch once in a long while OLTL or AMC.

Gosh, Dark Shadows. I had a friend that was totally into that show. She used to wear a long cape and had black lipstick and long nails painted black. That was way before the days of the Goth look and was very unique then!

I'm only 19 so I've never heaard of most of these soaps. GH is totally a southern thing. It's the only soap I've watched repatedly. I watch OLTL and AMC sometimes but rarely anything else!

i would have to say all time favorite is GH. I think i started around 1985-ish when i was really young. I missed a few years cuz of school and work but have always tried to keep up.

I also loved AMC, Ryan's Hope and Loving cuz i used to watch with my grandmother when i was really young.

And I used to be a huge DOOL fan around the early 90's but then it just got weird!

great post by the way!

General Hospital of course!

I used to watch B&B, Y&R, DOOL, AW, OLTL and SB. The only one I've stuck with is GH though.
