‘SOAP’ Comedy Sitcom 81-Thru-90 (Part Sixth of the TV Show

Soap is an American sitcom television series that originally ran on ABC from September 13, 1977, until April 20, 1981. The show was created as a night-time parody of daytime soap operas, presented as a weekly half-hour prime time comedy. Similar to a soap opera, the show’s story was presented in a serial format, and featured melodramatic plotlines including alien abduction, demonic possession, extramarital affairs, murder, kidnapping, unknown diseases, amnesia, cults, organized crime warfare, a communist revolution and teacher-student relationships. In 2007 it was listed as one of Time magazine’s “100 Best TV Shows of All-TIME”, and in 2010, the Tates and the Campbells ranked at number 17 in TV Guide’s list of “TV’s Top Families”. The show starred Katherine Helmond and Cathryn Damon as sisters/matriarchs of their own families. The cast also included three former soap opera actors. Robert Mandan (Chester Tate) had previously appeared on Search for Tomorrow as a leading man for Mary Stuart, and Donnelly Rhodes (Dutch Leitner) had played the first husband of Katherine Chancellor on The Young and the Restless. Arthur Peterson Jr. (“The Major”) played Rev. John Ruthledge in the radio version of Guiding Light. —————————————————————————————————————————————————————-If you would like to Help Support this Channel , Please Make Your Donations to my PayPal Account https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_donations&business=CLXPKYZ4N7QZG&currency_code=USD the Money you give will help support the expensive cost of running this Channel like, Editing Software subscriptions and towards buying new camera equipment .
