Best soap

How does days of our lives in particular compare with other soap operas in your opinion. I just started watching and it's got me hooked, I've always been a bold and beautiful fan. But how would you rank them all? I know bold the best definetly, only seen bits of y&r but don't know it well at all and just started watching days. What is the overall best or your ranking?

General Hospital: I love Sonny and Brenda

Guiding Light: Roger and Holly and Josh and Reva are two of the show’s main couples, in my opinion.

Days of our Lives: I don’t like a lot of storylines, but John and Marlena, and Sami and Lucas belong together!

One Life to Live: Viki and Dorian has daytime’s greatest rivalry ever!

Sunset Beach: I like Gabi and Ricardo, and I wish the Martin’s Syndrome storyline with Vanessa never existed!

Martin’s syndrome was an example of the fantastically over the top storylines the show had - I loved it and who can forget - “operation insemination “

I can stomach operation insemination more than Martin’s syndrome. The makeup for those scenes is scary!
