Every time Jerry Jones opens his mouth, things get wilder and more ridiculous for the Cowboys organization and their fans. Famous actor Denzel Washington, a life-long Cowboys fan, does not hold back on Jerry Jones. He says Jerry is only in it for himself, he's not thinking about the fans. Jerry Jones, earlier this week, made the heinous comment that 'the Cowboys are a soap opera' and when things get boring, 'he's there to stir them up.' Jerry Jones wants controversy so he can be in the news. What a disaster!

The Shocking Effect Of Soap Operas - with Neuroscientist Dr Rachel Taylor (Part 1) Black Spy Podcast, 205, Season 21, Episode 0006 Over the next two weeks the Black Spy Podcast will analyse soap operas. Soap operas, as a television genre, trace a significant part of their lineage to Latin American telenovelas, which emerged in Mexico during the mid-20th century. These serialized dramas, often rooted in melodrama, romance, and moral dilemmas, served as cultural exports across Latin America and beyond, blending traditional storytelling with contemporary social issues. The telenovela format's success lay in its capacity to reflect local cultural norms while also pushing boundaries—presenting themes such as female independence, class mobility, and taboo relationships—sometimes in ways that challenged prevailing social conservatism. In Britain, long-running staples like Coronation Street (1960–) and EastEnders (1985–) inherited this narrative strategy but adapted it to distinctly British working-class milieus. They were not merely entertainment; they became quasi-social documents, portraying gritty realism in domestic, communal, and romantic life. Over time, these soaps began to normalize lifestyles and issues that, in broader society, were once marginal—such as same-sex relationships, interracial marriages, non-traditional family structures, and open discussions of mental health, addiction, and gender identity. Through repetition and integration into everyday plotlines, such narratives subtly influence public attitudes, moving topics from the periphery into the mainstream. However, as soap operas in Britain have become less realistic, seemingly needing to be more sensational to gain viewers their relevance has lessened and become a tool of a vision of living that could splinter society rather than as was originally the ideal to unite it. Critics have argued that this gradual social shift is not purely organic. The creative and editorial leadership in major television networks—particularly in Western ‘democracies' —often emerges from academic, artistic, and cultural sectors that lean left-of-centre politically. This has led to claims that soap operas serve as vehicles for progressive social messaging under the guise of everyday drama. While this perspective risks oversimplifying the complex interplay between audience demand, artistic intent, and institutional culture, it is true that soaps often act as cultural laboratories, introducing and normalizing ideas before they achieve widespread societal acceptance. In essence, from Mexican telenovelas to British soaps, the genre's enduring power lies in its ability to reflect life while also reframing it—sometimes in ways that deliberately shift cultural norms toward seemingly more inclusive, and often more seemingly progressive, visions of society.

Since the debut of These Are My Children in 1949, the daytime television soap opera has been foundational to the history of the medium as an economic, creative, technological, social, and cultural institution. In Her Stories, Elana Levine draws on archival research and her experience as a longtime soap fan to provide an in-depth history of the daytime television soap opera as a uniquely gendered cultural form and a central force in the economic and social influence of network television. Closely observing the production, promotion, reception, and narrative strategies of the soaps, Levine examines two intersecting developments: the role soap operas have played in shaping cultural understandings of gender and the rise and fall of broadcast network television as a culture industry. In so doing, she foregrounds how soap operas have revealed changing conceptions of gender and femininity as imagined by and reflected on the television screen. In a wide-ranging and enjoyable interview with Dr. Elana Levine, we covered a broad array of subjects pertaining to the history, culture, and craft of soap operas. After an initial conversation, I asked her a series of questions about her work and how it resonates with other genres such as the Real Housewives franchise, especially how original housewives (domestic workers as well as suburban housewives of numerous ethnicities and races) represented the viewership of soap opera consumption and support. We talked about the early origins of soap operas, especially with Proctor & Gamble in the early inception of the soap opera genre to now, with the innovative partnership and collaboration between Proctor and Gamble/CBS and the NAACP in debuting the new soap opera, Beyond the Gates. We discussed the ways in which the viewership of soaps, mostly working women and stay at home women shed light on significant aspects of American Women's and Gender history, women's civic participation (combing public and private space) as well as informs how women viewers, often housewives and domestics, found ways to weave their own life narratives together with those of cast actors, thus contributing to an interpretive lens on life matter,(blurring line between real and imagined), representing both an innovative and inclusive type of Citizenship seasoning process, whereby, via interaction with soap operas stars as both celebrities and everyday people, (as fellow Cinema scholar Anna McCarthy talks about in her work on ways in which 1950s television, functioned as a kind of citizen machine governing America, championed inclusive democratic practice that engaged citizens in repetitious call and response and back and forth conversation about everyday practices of everyday working people. Lastly, we talked about the parallels with primetime soap operas like Dallas, Dynasty, Knots Landing, Yellowstone, as well as what Dr. Levine calls a hybrid form of soap opera storytelling found in series like Grey's Anatomy, Scandal, and other primetime television series. We also spoke about the parallels between soap operas as meditations on aspects of good and evil, finding interesting synergy with genres such as wrestling as soap opera drama sport, the drama of superheroes and villains in the DC and Marvel Universe, as well as versions of science fiction. Dr. Elana Levine is Professor of Media, Cinema and Digital Studies in the Department of English at the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee. She got her PhD, Communication Arts from University of Wisconsin–Madison. Her research areas of interest include Television history, theory, and criticism; gender, sexuality, and media; media industry and production studies; media audience studies.

Lastly, we talked about the parallels with primetime soap operas like Dallas, Dynasty, Knots Landing, Yellowstone, as well as what Dr. Levine calls a hybrid form of soap opera storytelling found in series like Grey's Anatomy, Scandal, and other primetime television series. We also spoke about the parallels between soap operas as meditations on aspects of good and evil, finding interesting synergy with genres such as wrestling as soap opera drama sport, the drama of superheroes and villains in the DC and Marvel Universe, as well as versions of science fiction.

Since the debut of These Are My Children in 1949, the daytime television soap opera has been foundational to the history of the medium as an economic, creative, technological, social, and cultural institution. In Her Stories, Elana Levine draws on archival research and her experience as a longtime soap fan to provide an in-depth history of the daytime television soap opera as a uniquely gendered cultural form and a central force in the economic and social influence of network television. Closely observing the production, promotion, reception, and narrative strategies of the soaps, Levine examines two intersecting developments: the role soap operas have played in shaping cultural understandings of gender and the rise and fall of broadcast network television as a culture industry. In so doing, she foregrounds how soap operas have revealed changing conceptions of gender and femininity as imagined by and reflected on the television screen. In a wide-ranging and enjoyable interview with Dr. Elana Levine, we covered a broad array of subjects pertaining to the history, culture, and craft of soap operas. After an initial conversation, I asked her a series of questions about her work and how it resonates with other genres such as the Real Housewives franchise, especially how original housewives (domestic workers as well as suburban housewives of numerous ethnicities and races) represented the viewership of soap opera consumption and support.

Join Jason as he explains how the WNBA has evolved into a modern soap opera, albeit a poorly scripted drama. Caitlin Clark is the lead in this soap opera, as both the protagonist and antagonist. Joy Taylor's recent take proclaiming that Clark's fame is thanks to Angel Reese is the current plot that Jason highlights, along with the ever-present Alphabet Mafia policing WNBA broadcasts. Steve Kim joins the discussion to pontificate on the fact that the league doesn't Make America Great Again; Max Kellerman teaming up with Dana White and returning to the media stage for a major boxing match; and Tyrese Haliburton proclaiming he wouldn't change his decision to play through a calf injury that eventually led to a year-long sideline. Last, the NFL seems to deepen ties with Jay-Z. Make sure to tune in to Harmony afterward, as Jason explains why Genesis 12:3 has become a topic of conversation, as well as the ongoing stories in the Middle East. Jason also explains recent spats involving Tucker Carlson, Ted Cruz, and Elon Musk. Today's Sponsors: Relief Factor With Relief Factor, you'll feel better every day, and you'll live better every day.

Without soaps, we wouldn't have melodramas or reality shows. Without soaps, we wouldn't have many of the TV tropes and shows we love to stream and binge-watch. Cliffhangers, serials, vixens — in television storytelling, all come from soaps. Network television would not exist if not for the financial success of soap operas, according to Elana Levine, author of Her Stories: Daytime Soap Opera and US Television History. During the 1970s, Levine said soaps brought in 75% of the networks' revenue. “Soaps were a legitimate kind of pop culture sensation. As a result, the networks are able to charge more for those ad slots,” she said. “It's a way to reach young people in particular for a time. [Networks] were willing to pay more, because what they were paying was still a whole lot less than what primetime TV cost them, in terms of advertising time.” Ad sales on soaps bore the load of a broadcaster's overall business model, even as production costs inevitably increased. Production costs for a soap opera, Levine said, were “still never at the level of what it cost to make a primetime show.” The decline of soaps can't be attributed to a singular event. Over time, viewers' habits changed and how we consume television evolved, from the VCR to streaming. Soaps are not dead, though, and there are good reasons why they have endured.
