Are any 80's soap operas worth watching today? It seems like they still have their fans, but where would you even start with this stuff?

Dallas is pretty good. Started in the 70s but went through the 80s

Yes just watch Dallas. It was unbelievably massive and one of the biggest moment of pop culture in the very early 80s. The whole thing is a wild watch it's like it was made on a different planet.

I think theres room for a kino show made in the style of an 80s soap opera, but imagine making it really fucking good with amazing writing and acting.
