General Soap Operas

Soap Operas Most Powerful Movers, Shakers, and Dealmakers

What would our favorite soap operas be without the moguls who make everything happen?

Without them making secret deals, blackmailing, or even doing a corporate takeover here or there, soap life wouldn’t be as exciting. Here are some of Soap Hub’s favorites.

The Young and the Restless
They didn’t write a book called Ruthless about him for nothing! Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) certainly knows how to get things done and how to manipulate things (especially his own children) to get what he wants–and he’s incredibly successful at pulling it all off without breaking a sweat.

Unlike Jack Abbott, The Mustache’s plans rarely blow up in his face. There was one person he almost never messed with and that was fellow power player, Katherine Chancellor. She proved she could get it all done without alienating everyone around her.

General Hospital
There are so many reasons those in Port Charles know not to mess with Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot). She’s one smart lady who learned at her father Edward’s knee how to get what she wants.

That is why ELQ International is still a powerhouse in town, even if Michael is the one running it day to day.

Tracy has been in bed with the mob and Luke Spencer, and if there’s one thing she’s learned, it’s never let a little thing like the law stand in the way. She has no peer, and that’s just one of the reasons we love her.

Days of Our Lives

Days of Our Lives
While it may seem like Victor Kiriakis (John Aniston) has mellowed with time, don’t let his grandfather-esque exterior fool you.

Sure, he’s handed over the reins to Deimos for now, but we wouldn’t be surprised to see him use those same reins to strangle him with.

Titan is a force in Salem and it’s not because Victor was a pushover all these years. When he needs to get something done, everyone knows to stand out of his way.

The Bold and the Beautiful
The publishing empire that is helmed by Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) is one of the most successful around, and it’s not because Dollar Bill gets by on his smoldering good looks.

He knows what he wants, and he goes for it without reservations. Currently, he’s doing everything he can to take the building Spectra is in from them. Should be interesting to see what happens next.
