🎉 Daytime greetings from coastal Mississippi. I truly enjoyed Your list. I have watched 17 soaps in 40 years, as if 2024. There are only 3 left on broadcast tv. Themes create a memory ....❤
I loved Another World's animated opening with Crystal Gayle and Gary Morris singing the theme song and OLTL's opening from the final years as well as the 1980s when Peabo Bryson sang the theme song.
passions was almost like a national lampoon soap opera. they would have these unrealistic plots, characters that were so commical u couldnt help but laugh.
I really enjoyed the openings to Dallas and Santa Barbara. Dynasty and Knott's Landing were iconic as well. Maybe even Melrose Place. Opening themes that make you want to sing or hum along are the best. These tunes still bring back so many nostalgic feels today.
Primetime shows were a different story altogether! Dallas was amazing, I did like Knots Landing but Melrose Place was what we wanted without knowing we needed it.
The 2004 opening was during the serial killer storyline where half the cast was murdered but wound up alive. The change in the song was to throw a hint that things weren't as they appeared.
I have six favorite soaps that I enjoyed watching as I was growing up in the 1980s are The Young & The Restless, Dallas, The Bold & The Beautiful, Falcon Crest, Knots Landing, and Melrose Place. Every once in a while I also enjoyed Dynasty. Sometimes I would hope Katherine Chancellor, Alexis Carrington, and Angela Channing would all meet together some day. Whether it is a day or night time soap. The 1980s and 1990s was the best time to watch soaps on television.
I LOVE ALL THESE OPENINGS SO DAMN MUCH BUT IT MAKES ME REALIZE HOW MUCH I MISS ONE LIFE TO LIVE AND ALL MY CHILDREN WISH THEY WERE STILL ON. I LOVE GENERAL HOSPITAL DAYS OF OUR LIVES WATCH THEM EVERYDAY AND SOMETIMES THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL. 😘😘😍😍💜💜💚💚💙💙💛💛❤❤💯💯
Every time i hear y and r music it’s so great and relaxing. I like general hospital's opening because I forget people's names in shows and every time that intro shows I remember
I love how B&B was able to evolve its music and make subtle changes without changing it until 2000. Even with this change, it wasn't as bad as the one from 2004. Yuck!
@Marty McFly II Oh, that sounds great! Is it something you'd be willing to upload to UA-cam or that you have uploaded to the cloud that you can share the link?
MY FAVORITE OPENINGS OF THIS ARE GENERAL HOSPITAL'S AND ALL MY CHILDREN AND I THOUGHT ONE LIFE TO LIVE WOULD OF BEEN ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE OPENINGS TOO! I LOVE THIS VIDEO THO DEFINITELY GREAT CHOICES! 😘😘😍😍💜💜💚💚💙💙💛💛❤❤💯💯
I'm sorry but your mid to late 2000s theme was when soaps became wack as hell. The only good one to me was DOL because they kept the same fomat and AMC because they were the only ones that was still okay during it's later years.
ALSO: Unpopular opinion but OLTL's infamous "champagne" opening was the best and my personal favorite. It told the premise of the shows name in what, 20 seconds? I hunted high and low for that song.
I told UK Soap Fans about how Megan Markle was on General Hospital and they were stunned. Now more than ever US Folks are watching UK Soaps and they love them.
@laminage No we don’t. No one watches uk trash. Brits just dickride north American shows/films and accents. You literally Copy every aspect of our American culture.
Days of our Lives not once but twice?very iconic but they should have changed it long ago.It’s way too dated.And where is One Life To Lives from the 80’s with their song?

One gets a bit sad when you see how many actors are no longer with us but you also trip at how many actors are STILL ON some soaps.
Rest In Peace Alan Quartermaine.

Right. Can't believe that was not on here. It should have been #1. Although I did love Days and Passions. Another world opening was the best.
That was indeed timeless. I can still remember it.
Sunset beach and another world!!
passions was almost like a national lampoon soap opera. they would have these unrealistic plots, characters that were so commical u couldnt help but laugh.
That's why I miss it...

Josh Baranski my sentiments exactly!
Primetime shows were a different story altogether! Dallas was amazing, I did like Knots Landing but Melrose Place was what we wanted without knowing we needed it.
I think young and the restless opening is so welcoming =)
I don't understand why General Hospital didn't keep that opening from 2011. Their current one SUCKS!!!
Production costs. Shortening the opening and using still images was so they didn't have to cut budget elsewhere, unfortunately.
Savaş1945
I miss that GH opening theme so much. I have it on Dave Koz's "Lucky Man" album.
I had to watch the Days of Our Lives openings side by side to realize the difference LOL

I know these lists are subjective, but You take me away to (Another world) is really good, its catchy and different than the other soaps.
I was so hooked on cbs soaps when i was a teen . not any more
I know Another World better be on her!!!
Every time i hear y and r music it’s so great and relaxing. I like general hospital's opening because I forget people's names in shows and every time that intro shows I remember
Passions had a good theme song.
Passions is a #1 favorite show
Days of our Lives my #1 favorite show of all time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bold and the beautiful back in the 90s was the best theme song and soap opera NO SOAP COULD OUTDUE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL BACK WHEN IT WAS GOOD LOL

Where is another world's and Santa Barbara open. The two best soaps ever.
Mace Crawford naw OLTL and GH are the best
Yes!!
Mace Crawford if thats the case why are they no longer on air 😂
AMC & GH
The gh opening before this was good this one sounds like screaming cats!!!
Great theme songs. :)
Ryans Hope was a Good Opening
Both Another World theme was nice
I grew up watching them since elementary school 🏫 through college.
I would've included GL's lighthouse opening (the 1st one) and AW's infamous last "ER" style opening. But i loved every one you picked, GREAT LIST!🎉
Rest In Peace Georgie Jones.
OLTL is the BEST Soap Opera out of them all! I love and miss OLTL so much! They never should have cancelled OLTL💯💚♥️
Hey don’t forget Dark Shadows!
I'm sorry but your mid to late 2000s theme was when soaps became wack as hell. The only good one to me was DOL because they kept the same fomat and AMC because they were the only ones that was still okay during it's later years.
I liked Italian opening 's All my children
YAS PASSIONS

SONNY IS ALIVE IN G.H AH AH AH AH
ALSO: Unpopular opinion but OLTL's infamous "champagne" opening was the best and my personal favorite. It told the premise of the shows name in what, 20 seconds? I hunted high and low for that song.

I told UK Soap Fans about how Megan Markle was on General Hospital and they were stunned. Now more than ever US Folks are watching UK Soaps and they love them.
