The Young and the Restless and The Bold and The Beautiful, two American serial dramas in year 48 and 34 respectively on television, have returned after a fantastic adjustment to life during a pandemic.

The families of #The Bold and the Beautiful®️ are based in Los Angeles and its culture of fashion designing and publication.  The families of The Young and the Restless® are based in Genoa City, Wisconsin and its culture of communication, cosmetic companies.

Serial dramatic series, called originally “Operatic Dramas” and teased by some as “Soap Operas” are the longest running dramas on television.  When people cry, “Oh I never watch those shows” it reminds me of all the 70 million people who would never think of buying a Barry Manilow album or the 50 million copies of a Phil Collins album where people assert “[I’d never think of listening to].”  Right.
