	Texas (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Texas (sometimes called Another World in Texas and, later, Texas: The New Generation) was a soap opera which aired on NBC from August 4, 1980 until December 31, 1982.
		It was unique in that it was the first soap opera to air hour-long episodes from its inception.
		The last episodes featured a Christmas miracle (snow fell in Houston as Long's character Ashley and her unborn baby, who had been presumed dead after a flash flood, returned home to loving husband Justin) and a New Year's series finale where the local TV station was bought out and all the major characters were fired.

		Shortly after Iris' arrival in Texas, she attended a large party, dressed to the nines, of course, in a glimmery gown, with hair piled on top of her head and sparkling diamonds encircling her neck and wrists.
		In 1980 Bert said that the reason he was drawn to Texas was, "The big lure Texas has is the fact that NBC is pulling out all the stops to make it the most lavish soap opera ever done.
		Beverlee told Soap Opera Digest in 1980 that the transition from Another World to Texas wasn't too traumatic: "I am still in the same buldiing, still in the same dressing room, my old friends are just down the hall, and I'm still the same character," she said.

	Brazilian soap opera 'America' is their story (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Titled "America," a Brazilian soap opera produced by Rede O Globo, Brazil's largest broadcaster, tells the saga of Sol, a young Brazilian woman who, after failing to obtain a U.S. tourist visa, crosses the U.S.-Mexican border to live in the land of her dreams as an illegal immigrant.
		The soap opera, or novela in Portuguese, strikes a chord with the Brazilian community in the region, where the episodes are closely followed and have become one of the main topics of conversation in churches, hair salons and other places where Brazilians socialize.
		For them, none of whom wanted to be identified with their full names for fear of immigration authorities, the soap opera shows, with some accuracy, the risks of crossing the border and the difficulties of living in the shadows as an illegal immigrant.

		Former Texas freshman standout Luke Axtell recently made the best decision of his short basketball career - he transferred to the University of Kansas.
		Texas initially told him he was going to be reassigned, but instead of cleaning toilets or waxing the new Texas basketball coach and former Clemson coach Rick Barnes' car he opted to resign.
		Somehow, after hearing of this meeting, the Texas basketball coaching staff decided it would be prudent to send a copy of Axtell's transcript to a local radio station.

	Dr. Sanity: The Abu Ghraib Soap Opera
		But the scandal is also one rooted in the behavior of military reservists working at the prison, an environment that testimony has portrayed as more frat house than military prison, a place where inmates were routinely left naked and soldiers took pictures of one another simulating sex with fruit.
		The reservists' treatment of Iraqi prisoners and their entanglements with one another - pieced together from documents, court testimony, e-mail and interviews - have produced a dark soap opera, one whose episodes have continued to play out in the months since the scandal erupted, and culminated in the Texas courtroom last week.
		This is a indeed a soap opera; but it most certainly is not a evil plot devised by the Bushies to defame Islam and humiliate war prisoners.

		I started reading up on the show and learned that it was a primetime soap (I knew that much; I thought it was one of those 90210-like shows) from the 1980s.
		I also think out of all the major primetime soaps it's the one that most felt like a daytime soap to me. (and I mean that as a complemnet--a bit more down to eather and relatable)
		I dint think a soap centered around normal, middle class familes in a culvesac would be interesting.

		This was the first time that a daytime soap opera had covered the subject, which is still considered taboo on American daytime television.
		AW was the first in many aspects as well: it was the first soap opera to talk about abortion in 1964 when such subjects were taboo.
		It was the first soap to launch two spinoffs (Somerset and Texas) as well as an indirect one (Lovers and Friends, which would be re-named For Richer For Poorer) AW was rare in this regard, as very few American soap operas told stories about characters, as opposed to characters placed in awkward and preposterous situations.

		The Young and the Restless is the one soap that I watch faithfully.
		I think it's because it is closest to what soaps were originally meant to be and doesn't go into stuff like aliens, freezing/unfreezing of dead people, spells being put on people, etc.....stuff that should be left to science fiction and/or horror movies.
