SOAP, the TV Sitcom (1 Viewer)

[Marvelous]

SOAP is airing an Antenna TV. I think it is on Sundays from 11 pm to midnight, but it should be easy to find using the cable search function.

Am I only person in the country watching this? The show is still very funny.

 

[Leroy Hoard]

Antenna TV.

Also shows WKRP, Maude, Archie Bunker & Gidget.

 

[Topes]

Not watching now, but dang, that was one funny show in the first run.

I vaguely remember an Exorcist arc. Scared me good.

 

[Tom Servo]

Benson rocked

back in the day we would do bong hits and laugh uncontrollably at the antics of Burt Campbell (Richard Mulligan).

Soap?

 

[bonesman]

One of the best TV theme songs ever to me.

 

[The Big Guy]

Was a good show but certainly had some peculiar story arcs.

 

[Sheriff Bart]

One of my favorites. They have been out on dvd for some time now. Re-watched every season 10+ years ago, it's time to watch again. Love WKRP too. Watched them too but they took all of the original music out and replaced it with sucky made for stuff. Definitely made it not as good. Which version are they playing on TV?

My dad turned me on to soap when I was in high school. I think comedy central ran a marathon of all episodes in order. We taped the entire thing and watched them over time. Great freaking show

 

[Charlie Frown]

Some of my fondest memories of my dad are when he and I would watch it on reruns and laugh our asses off.

Lol. I still do the thing he used to do with his hands to make himself invisible. Nobody ever really gets the reference anymore.

[on trying to establish alibi's for Peter's murder]

Chief Tinkler: Where were you between midnight and 7am?

Chuck: I was with Bob here.

Bob: Yes he was I can vouch for him.

Chief Tinkler: O.K. I can cross you off my list... wait a minute suspect number ten.

Bob: And eleven?

Chief Tinkler: And eleven.

Where's Benson?

He was shot in the temple.

I didn't know he was Jewish.

 

[grateful zed]

invisible

 

[Sheriff Bart]

Herb Tarlek: Mr. Ferryman, would you like a cigar?

Ferryman: That would be nice.

Herb to Mr. Carlson: Give me a cigar.

Mr. Carlson: I don't have any cigars!

Herb to Andy: Give me a cigar.

Andy: Why would I have cigars?!

Herb: (Gets up opens the office door) CIGARS!!! (Slams door shut goes back to the meeting)

I don't know why but this kills me. I also love how all of the radio stations in Cincinnati wouldn't advertise a funeral business because "it's just not right". Would love to know when they then went whore and sell time to known shysters like they do now.

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

Great show.

Pretty sure this was a tv first in the US.

Yeah some Billy Crystal guy. He never want on to do much

I was so young when I watched this show, but I think Soap helped either form my humor or dovetailed with something innate.
