'Guiding Light' demise continues soaps' refuse

Jon left Kate and his eight children and took up with the party girl Hailey. Audrina got a restraining order against an alleged stalker. NeNe got into an quarrel with Kim during a photo shoot. And Rachel was attacked yet again by one of the city tabloids.

Certainly not most of America. In the past decade, the audience for soap operas has dwindled, as has the number of what broadcasters call "daytime dramas." Younger viewers, in particular, have gravitated toward realism shows, which feature the melodrama and outsized characters of soaps; it's perhaps no coincidence that the co-creator of MTV's "The Real World" and several other realities shows, Mary-Ellis Bunim, started as a soap writer and producer.
