Who Is the Best Soap Opera Cook?



Soap Opera:   All My Children

Best Cook:   Kate Martin

For me, Kate Martin was the best cook in soap operas.  She was always baking cookies, cooking dinner, cooking something.  You could almost smell the aromas coming from Kate's kitchen.  The Thanksgiving spread was ala Grandma Kate.  There were scenes in the Martin kitchen.  Do soap operas even show kitchens any more?  If Kate Martin were still around, there would definitely be a kitchen set and it would get a lot of use.

Who Is the Sexiest Soap Opera Actor/Actress?

Thorsten Kaye as Zach Slater

Vincent Irizarry as Dr David Hayward

Susan Lucci as Erica Kane
Roger Howarth as Todd Manning

Sexiest Soap Opera Actors:  Thorsten Kaye, Vincent Irizarry, Susan Lucci, Roger Howarth

I actually could go on and on with this one because almost all the players on daytime soap operas are sexy.  My pick for sexiest goes to several people: Thorsten Kaye AKA Zach Slater on All My Children; Vincent Irizarry AKA Dr David Hayward on All My Children; Susan Lucci AKA Erica Kane on All My Children; and Roger Howarth as Todd Manning on One Life to Live/General Hospital.  I could go on and on - there are just so many hot, sexy actors in soap operas!  These are but a few!

Who Is Your Favorite Soap Opera Family?



Soap Opera:  All My Children

Family:  The Martins

All My Children's Martin family is my favorite soap family.  Kate Martin was the best Grandma, and Joe and Ruth were the perfect family elders.  Tad and Jake were maturing into the next generation of family leaders.  

I loved Martin family gatherings.  They were always so warm and family-feeling, but there was always some kind of craziness going on in the middle of them.

What Is Your Favorite Soap Opera Theme Song



This was actually a question I saw on one of the Facebook walls, so thank you to whoever it was that came up with this question!  For me, there was a version of the All My Children theme song for a while that ended with a ding at the end of the song.  My younger daughter was little at the time and would always "ding" when the song ended.   After they changed the theme, for years, we would all "ding" at the end of the theme song at the beginning of the show.

Another memorable theme song was from Days of Our Lives - Like sands through the hourglass...
