Play the Classic Soap Characters TV Crossword

I’m so excited that we are finally getting to the daytime soap operas as a theme for our puzzles! Are there any emotional attachments to any type of show that are stronger than the ones we have for our favorite soap? There are so many characters for us to get hooked on, plus their dramatic, turbulent, romantic, joyful, and forever hopeful lives. My soap opera obsession has always been General Hospital, and one of the greatest super-couples of all time, Luke and Laura. While I was in high school, Luke and Laura were just at the beginning of their relationship, and when they got married (Luke’s nemesis Scotty caught the bouquet!), I could easily watch GH after I got home from school. But in college, still hooked on GH while Luke and Laura were knee-deep in the Cassadine adventures, I had to skip a fair number of my physics classes in the afternoon during freshman year so I could watch. Physics was hard enough, even when I was actually attending class. I ended up with a C. And I do have to say, looking back at that time I spent playing hooky from school to watch GH, it was worth it! —Michael Fell, Editor-in-Chief of TV Guide Magazine
