great soap updates
Date of Review: Jun 15, 2000
I just began to receive Soap Opera Digest and I am glad that I have. As a college student I began to watch soap operas with my friends in the dorms. It was a fun way to spend time together. Now I am hooked. The problem. I don't always get to watch my soaps. I sometimes tape them so that I can watch them later, but I find that I end up watching a new show before I even have time to watch the taped one. This of course means that I already knows what happens and it was a waste of my time. This brings me to my new magazine. I like this magazine because it lets me stay connected to my soaps without always watching them. It lets me talk to my friends about what has been going on. This I really like. It also lets me know what will be coming up in the next weeks shows. I think that this is my favorite part of the magazine. I like to know what is going to happen.
Another part of the magazine that I like is the question and answer sections. People ask about things that happened in old shows (years ago) and it helps new viewers understand what is going on. It shows old covers and tells what was happening then on the shows.
I also really like that it tells about all of the soaps. Not just certain ones. This means that if you watch one soap opera on NBC and another on ABC, both are in this one magazine. In a lot of other magazines that only talk about one stations soaps.
The last thing that I love about this magazine, is that it comes once a week. This gives me a lot of information. I can read one and then a week later I know I will have new information.
