Others are multi-million dollar productions, often with big stars. These are shown at peak times weekend evenings. A successful prime-time soap can make unknown actors and actresses world-famous. It will also make a lot of money for the producer. Some soaps run for years. Others flash across our screens for a year or two, and then vanish. Some viewers get so involved in a soap that they imagine the characters are real A world-wide successful soap can start a fashion and hit headlines.
How are they written?

A. The rich and grand. Often, the main characters belong to one family, and they run a family business. Viewers watch them for the glamour of big houses, fast cars and huge business deals.
B. The professionals. These soaps take place in a workplace. Hospitals and hotels are popular. The main characters are doctors and nurses, managers and room staff. Patients/guests come and go, but there is plenty of opportunity for drama and crises. These are mixed in with complicated bits of the characters’ private lives.
