Super Soap Scenes

From the first radio soap opera in 1930 to network television and streaming today, daytime dramas have been full of heart-tugging, heart-breaking, and heart-stopping moments, storylines, and performances. But which can be classified as the very, very best of the genre? NYT best-selling author of "As the World Turns" tie-ins, "Oakdale Confidential" and "The Man From Oakdale," "Guiding Light" tie-in "Jonathan's Story," and the "Another World" continuation "Another World Today" Alina Adams asked fans to share their favorites from the past ninety-five years. She then asked the actors, writers, producers, and directors who created those memorable moments to spill the behind-the-scenes scoop on how each came together. You'll hear from: Hilary B.
