A spot that somehow encapsulates all the great things about the soaps? One that captures the romance and the drama and demonstrates why they are so beloved by viewers?

Dive into the best of the soaps
ABC and People present a two-hour celebration of daytime serials in “The Story of Soaps” tonight at 9.
Soaps rarely get any attention in prime time, so this special is definitely worth checking out.
The documentary features such celebrities as Carol Burnett, Bryan Cranston (who got his break on “Loving”) and Jon Hamm dishing on the genre.
The network promises the special will explore how female creators shifted from radio to television and how their work changed pop culture.

There’s so much more to daytime than its excesses.
