    These shows were 10 times better than the reality shows that flood our channels today.

    I'd forgotten Ryan O'Neal was on Peyton Place. He was so handsome then! Thanks for the memories :)

    Excellent submission! I recall a few of those. It would be interesting to know where the term "soap opera" originated.
