The Soap Menagerie: Soap Opera Stars And Their Pets

Published by

Animals are family and give us love that we often don’t feel like we deserve. We love them back and find joy in them and soap opera stars are no exception.

Take a look at your favorite daytimers with these furry family members. Soap Hub will gather them all in one place each week so you don’t have to.

More on Soap Opera History

Soap opera began in the early 1900s, as radio broadcasts. Soap companies were behind the conception of the daytime dramas because they wanted to sell soaps to stay-at-home-moms. They did their job and also launched a lifelong programming format, the soap operas.

Spanning more than five decades, American sudsers have seen the rise and fall of daytime soaps. In the heyday of soaps in the early 1980s, there were up to 13 different soap operas broadcasted. However, over the years, the number has declined. Currently, there are only four American soap operas on the air.

Bringing the Drama

The four remaining soap operas currently on the air include Days of our Lives, The Young and the Restless (YR), General Hospital (GH), and The Bold and the Beautiful (BB). Check your local listings for air times.
