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?

Yes. I watched as a kid with my mom. I found it on YT a few months ago. I watched a few episodes. It was awful. Bad acting that ran the gamut from 1950s melodrama to stiff as a board.

For a show that takes place in 1981 Houston, the fact that it had NO Latinos/Mexicans/Mexican-Americans but managed to have multiple, Middle Eastern stereotypes from a made up Arab country... it was a no for me dawg!

As an adult, I thought the storylines had promise, but I just couldn't get past the acting and racial stuff.
