A Tale Of Two Parties. PLUS: Spoiler Alert!
March 24, 2014 23:00 - 1 hour - 20.6 MBFolks who don’t actually watch soap operas often make assumptions that simply aren’t true.

I Missed WHAT?
March 10, 2014 23:00 - 1 hour - 14.1 MBSo apparently, while Soaps In Depth’s executive editor Richard M. Simms was off sailing the high seas, a whole lot happened back home.

Wedding Fever
December 03, 2013 00:00 - 1 hour - 16.1 MBIf April showers bring May flowers, than November sweeps must bring December weddings.

Meanwhile, over on THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL, Rick and Caroline announced they were tying the knot and had done so an episode later. Both were quintessential s...

November 26, 2013 00:00 - 1 hour - 19.3 MBEvery soap has one.

Charlie Takes Over The Book Club!
August 19, 2013 23:00 - 56 minutes - 12.6 MBTonight, our regularly scheduled soap chat is hijacked by the August Book Club meeting... which promises to be quite the event. Why?

Richard's international bestseller... well, seller anyway, Crimes Against Civility. We'll provide the talk and the fun, but it's BYOB as far as cocktails are concerned! The show will ...
The Three R's: Rants, Raves and Rumors!
August 12, 2013 23:00 - 1 hour - 19 MBIs a major power shift taking place behind the scenes at THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS?

On The Couch: Sharon Newman
July 18, 2013 23:00 - 1 hour - 21.4 MBIs THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS' Sharon Newman a lost cause who can’t find her way off the cray-cray train… or is her latest desperate act the thing that might finally put her back on the road to redemption?

Simms will take your calls as we try to sort out fact from fiction. Plus, we’ll find out how fans are reacting to the new roles taken on by GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Kr...

May 06, 2013 23:00 - 1 hour - 22.8 MBALL MY CHILDREN and ONE LIFE TO LIVE returning seemed about as likely as your host, Soaps In Depth executive editor Richard M. Simms, giving up French fries.

Sex! Now That I Have Your Attention...
April 08, 2013 23:00 - 1 hour - 23.9 MBIt took longer than many expected for THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL’s Brooke and Bill to hit the sheets, but did they still do it too soon? And is DAYS OF OUR LIVES finding out the hard way — via the nearly universally reviled Dannifer story — the hazzard of filming so far in advance? Might things have been different if the show could have corrected course sooner? Plus, did ABC miss the boat by turning their GENERAL HOSPITAL-centric episode of 20/20 into a Katie Couric Pimp-A-Thon? And is THE YOU...
Mourning, Morality and More!
April 03, 2013 23:00 - 1 hour - 23.8 MBHow long is too long -- or not long enough -- when it comes to a soap character mourning their beloved partner, ala GENERAL HOSPITAL's Patrick and Sam? How important is it for a character's morality to either track or, at the very least, make sense (ala Brady finding God on DAYS OF OUR LIVES)? And how do you move a great character past a horrific mistake made by a writing regime (ala THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS' Adam kidnapping Sharon's baby or DAYS' Sami shooting EJ in the head?) This will be o...
The Three R's: Rumors, Rants & Raves!
March 26, 2013 23:00 - 2 hours - 27.5 MBSpreading rumors has come a long way since the days of gossiping over white picket fences, hasn’t it?

Plus, find out how a soap from the past influnces events on Ragged...
Endings and Beginnings
March 05, 2013 00:00 - 1 hour - 21.1 MBNow it can be told: GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Caleb wasn’t actually a vampire... or named Caleb... unless, of course, he was both. Now that GH’s controversial vampire storyline appears to have flown the coop, we’ll talk about the good (Michael Easton’s killer performances), the bad (the plot holes) and the downright ugly (the reaction of some viewers). Speaking of plots that are definitely getting a reaction, THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL’s Eric has moved Taylor in so quickly that we’re pretty sure we s...
