I actually love the telenovelas! My step-mom is Mexican, and she used to watch them every night...drove me crazy at first, but I got hooked (even though the only thing I could really understand was "Soy Embarasada!" and "Ay, Dios Mio!" & "Mentirosa!!!"). I really do like the fact that they all have endings...but I used to get depressed when they ended, so I guess its good that regular soaps don't.

Do you remember who the family was?
The other is a woman, maybe Bobbie, maybe kneeling at someone's grave... all I remember is that the the scene and the words the woman spoke were the saddest things ever... not sure if it was maybe her mother's grave or someone else's or if it was even Bobbie?

You got me there! I do remember those story lines vaguely...was the family Audrey & Joe? Or am I getting the premier of "Port Charles" confused?
I think Bobbie had a pretty crushing scene at BJ's grave (her daughter who died in a school bus crash and donated her heart to Maxie, who was suffering from Kawasaki syndrome...). That was the saddest time ever on GH.
p.s. I don't really have time to watch GH anymore, even though I have a TIVO. School is just too busy, but I do read Soap Opera Digest when I need a break from case books...I was sad when CHristina Wagner (Felicia) left so bitterly, and sad that Jax got so bitter about Brenda. I wish Jason would get hit in the head again and go back to being Jason Quartermaine. I don't like him as this unemotional-robot dude.
p.s.s. You reminded me about Terry. I liked her too...remember when Shawn Cassidy guested on GH and played her crazy boyfriend for a while (or do you even know who Shawn Cassidy is? Man, I am dating myself).
