am i the only one that cant stand soaps
 
shows like eastenders and coranation street are so popular but i just dont get why all they seem to do in these shows is go from relationship to relationship oh and throw in the occasional murder. when i was younger i didnt mind them but as i got older i find them so repetitive yet these shows are never under threat to be cancelled and are some of the most watched tv in the uk i dont mean to offend fans of these shows just dont see the appeal

Zelda!!!!
Eastenders is amazing!

Patrick 03-02-2010 07:18 PM

Actually watch Eastenders, as the saying goes over on BBC 'Theres more to Eastenders..'

Corrie, yes is ****.

Eastenders has far more going for it though.

Simone. 03-02-2010 07:18 PM

Same!

I used to love them when I was younger, especially Brookside, lol! But now I realise they really are repetative and completely unrealistic!

I hate all soaps. Terrible acting, and more importantly, who on Earth cares? What's the point in following a story with no discernable ending?

i agree with the no ending they just go on forever there is no conclusion to look forward to

Well thats basically why people like Soaps.

Eastenders will still be on in 50 Years or more, thats whats great.
Growing up with somthing like that and watching it when your 60 Thinking 'Oh I remember years ago that happened..'
