The Box That Speaks. Tuesday, December 13, 2011. Soap Operas: The Black Sheep of TV. You hear it quite often: "I felt like I was watching a soap opera!

So, why is it...

It's the past, instead of actually re-creating. Are the shows and plots still good? Or does the removal of the gimmick also remove any initial interest in them? Tuesday, September 20, 2011.
