It seems that these shows, a staple in daytime TV programming for so many years and, like the newspaper industry, doesn&#8217;t have what it takes to survive in todays Internet driven world. Though I didn&#8217;t watch it, I remember being a bit sad when &#8220;As The World Turns&#8221; was canceled. I think I was put off because it was one of the original soaps, and it seemed so wrong to get rid of it. But what did I know, I was a kid then and had no idea that money was involved in TV programming. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>My sister actually scheduled her college classes around her favorite Soap, &#8220;The Young and the Restless&#8221;, but then she had a family, then became a teacher. She stopped watching a long time ago.  Speaking of when we were kids, my brother and sister used to watch General Hospital, back in the &#8220;Luke and Laura \/ Robert Scorpio&#8221; days. Man, that was fun &#8211; and as it turns out, historic. I too, became busy and lost interest, plus, I never liked the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.soapcentral.com\/gh\/whoswho\/sonny.php\">Sonny Corinthos<\/a> character.
