hollyoaks sucks

[@ghammond2290]

taffe316 have you heard much British music? Some greats from Manchester, the stone roses for example

@Titus Elias i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

Eastenders: cockneys cry, scream and fight. Hollyoaks: pretty youths cry, scream and fight. Emmerdale: old Yorkshire folk cry, scream and fight.

[@rainyfeathers9148]

Facts... unfortunate facts (¬_¬)

[@quantumbun3140]

They have something in common: they’re boring. (in my opinion.)

[@davef4982]

Well said.

[@TomCat681]

And what about Coronation Street

[@Phippsta]

@@TomCat681 Glum Mancunians (old and young) scream and fight!

[@HarryLiamReeves]

Lauren was having a screaming-fest because she was an alcoholic, it was one of her major storylines.. She's all good now lol

[@cburton99]

shes dead now lul

[@ryank8466]

@@cburton99 no?

[@cburton99]

@@ryank8466 swear she fell off something or was that abi

[@AngelMitchellBooks]

@@cburton99 both Lauren and Abi fell off the roof of the vic after talking Max out of suicide and Abi died a few weeks later after having her life support switched off and Lauren left straight after Abis funeral

[@DedricSilva]

The wierd thing is unlike American Soap Operas, British Soap Operas actually feel like traditional TV Shows like Breaking Bad.

[@swishanimoo8815]

I'm surprised coronation street wasn't on here as it's the best soap and the longest running, deputed in 1960!!! Soap operas are amazing!!!

[@taffe316]

If I do a sequel I'll try to get that included!

[@111yes7]

Swish Animoo ikr

[@theconquerorx9676]

Coronation Street, EastEnders, Emmerdale, etc. They're all dull as dishwater.

[@TheSiobhan12]

you read my mind, I was gobsmacked!!!!!

[@drawde_064]

Swish Animoo soap operas suck

[@milliedavis4031]

in eastenders Lauren (the girl that asked for the drink) had a drinking problem and she was in a bad way.

[@charlottiexx3048]

His commentary of Eastenders was Getting ON MY NERVES

[@gavingiant6900]

coronation street is missing, its the longest running soap opera of the world.

[@taffe316]

I'll be sure to include it if I make a sequel

[@StephenButlerOne]

taffe316 i wouldn't bother.

[@Foebane72]

It's also a BORING PILE OF CRAP.

[@lukerose384]

EastEnders and Coronation Street have been battling for decades. As of now, Coronation Street has higher ratings.

[@solitarymaninblack]

The actress would take it as a compliment. "British Jennifer Lawrence mixed with jlo"

[@millywalters3038]

I watch all of these on TV they are all awesome Soap Operas

[@TellyArchive]

8:27 Lol obviously Emmerdale isn’t called “Subtitles” 😄

[@laminage]

taffe316 there are alot of other things that make UK Soaps different from US Soaps. They are more diverse in the sense that they have Black & Indian Actors, it's very Gay Friendly and one of the Actors from Hollyoaks was Duncan James who was in a Group called Blue who did Duets not only with Elton John & Stevie Wonder. Alot of UK Pop Stars become Soap Stars.

[@dorlow3765]

Lauren was actually going through an alcoholic phase in her life. (EastEnders)

[@hungergames7fan13]

funny thing is prince who was trying to help people cross the ladder and that girl lily who he said he was gonna marry well in the show they did get married despite him cheating with peri

[@destinitra]

4:06 Oh god...my heart skipped a beat. *sigh* I miss Hetti Bywater as Lucy *cries*

[@markorollo.]

My mums friend's son was in that second one, Hollyoaks, a few years ago.

[@taffe316]

That''s really cool!

[@ethanch3011]

You remember Michelle Keegan in Coronation Street? My dad is mates with her granddad. Wish we were invited to her wedding, but hey what can you do. My mum goes to the same hairdressers as her, and my mum's usual hairdresser is Michelle's usual hairdresser.

[@JadeSim]

Surprised Coronation Street wasn't on the list. It's the most popular soap in the UK. One of the very first too.

[@taffe316]

Yeah if I make a sequel I'll make sure to get that included

[@JadeSim]

taffe316 nice! I'm not that particularly into soaps but I still end up seeing them anyway from time to time because my parents watch them. It would be nice to see that video from you. 😊

[@KayRandz]

EastEnders Is The Best! 😁

[@SEGAtendo1989]

camelpissflavour brookside 😂 people watch that

[@louisasmiles]

Utter shit

[@laminage]

The Actress who plays Tracy is on Emmerdale Amy Walsh whose Sister Sally was on the show from 1997-2000 who played A Bully named Lyn Hutchinson. Their Middle Sister Kimberley was part of Girls Aloud who were the most Successful Group to come of reality tv. They had 21 Top Tens, Four Number Ones, and Six Platinum Albums. Cheryl Ann Tweedy (Liam Payne's Girlfriend) from One Direction had Three Number One Albums and an additional Five Number One Singles. Also keep in mind that there's a Grittiness on a UK Soap that we don't see on US Soaps. The Ladies either run or work at Cafes or are Barmaids while the Fellows are Garage Mechanics.

[@laminage]

That was before they broke up. Either way, whatever happened with them, I knew they would not last. I stand corrected.

[@danielsnell9053]

Hollyoaks was awesome in around 2006 - 2008. Not so keen on it nowadays though.

[@tommyc23101986]

Did you know the 2 blondes in eastenders are dead now

[@UnionJxck]

EMMERDALE IS LEGIT MY LIFE

[@69coolchris]

Wow! Emmerdale has really changed! I haven't watched it for years. I remember when it was called Emmerdale Farm and was a soap about farming life. I miss those days. It's just another generic soap now..such a pity.

[@taffe316]

Wow I didn't know that. Wonder why they changed it

[@69coolchris]

taffe316 Ratings probably. Wanting to attract younger audiences as well. If the ratings were too low, they probably decided to make it more exciting or accessible to more people.

[@OldSchoolRasslin]

They had a big plane crash storyline that destroyed the farm and killed off a lot of long-running characters and then they re-tooled the soap, people started having sex with each other and there were no more farm animals.

[@PINKKYLIELOUISE]

Actually it's one of the best soaps on tv

[@KitanKate]

and it was filmed right near where i live but they moved it to a studio thats looks the same :O

[@danielr02]

Dude if you had done this. a few days earlier you would have caught the Hollyoaks school explosion and the Emmerdale barn fire.

[@ZeldaA_91]

Hollyoaks has the upbeat theme but has some pretty dark themes and episodes in the last few year's.

[@Liam-qn2kn]

I love the storylines in British soap I hate it when people complain about a storyline going of for to long

[@silentassassin1298]

Hollyoaks built my life

[@joannedwyer3691]

Your reaction vids are good mate keep em coming. I'm a new subscriber an I thought the vids and yr reactions are spot on

[@jamesclare]

ok that was something watching old videos for the lols....

[@BubblyJubbly]

I guess we could say that Lauren asSALTed the window.

[@rainyfeathers9148]

Where's the first 'Lauren' actress, this is a whole other kid? Goes to show, I haven't watched this show in 15+ years

[@ANGRYPHILMITCHELL]

where's Coronation Street it has been on for nearly 60 years. how the heck is it not on here ? apart from that I enjoyed this video. if you ever review it please review the tram crashing on to the street episode. a huge landmark episode celebrating 50 years on telly

[@taffe316]

I appreciate it dude and yeah I'll try to get it included for a sequel.

[@JLuke2oo7]

And that episode was actually filmed and broadcast live on air too!

[@ANGRYPHILMITCHELL]

JDoGGYDiZZLE I think it was the episode after the tram crash the aftermath but not 100 percent

[@JLuke2oo7]

Daniel 'Sir Alex' H. Yeahh it was, it was a 2 part episode I think, and you're right, I think it was the one after which was part 2! I stand corrected my good man! Haha 😊 (I actually never watched any of them as I can't stand eastenders, I just read about it in the news paper as I was looking at the boooobs...)

[@chrishall7915]

All British soap opera revolves around a pub

[@amberfranklin4499]

Lauren was an alcoholic in the episode of esstenders on this video.

[@niallsheridan1596]

Hollyoaks is the best soap on to much during the week though

[@greybackwillmunchyou2593]

Im from the UK and I love Emmerdale as you can see from my name and the Robron part is a soap opera couple called Aaron and Robert there probably one of the biggest soap couple fandom in the UK Heres my view on the soaps Eastenders is ok It’s set in London Hollyoaks is shit and really modern it’s set in Chester I think or somewhere around there Emmerdale is set in the Yorkshire dales and is best soap in the UK at the moment which is a big deal and there is one more soap that was missed out which is coronation street it was the first ever soap made in the uk so it’s huge

[@taffe316]

I appreciate all the info! If I end up doing a sequel I'll try to see to it that Coronation Street is included.

[@greybackwillmunchyou2593]

taffe316 I also forgot to say that Eastenders is on bbc at 8pm on a Monday and Thursday and 7.30pm on a Tuesday and Thursday Hollyoaks is shit so I don’t know when it’s on as I don’t watch it I know it starts at 6.30pm on Channel 4 Emmerdale is on every week day Monday to Friday and starts at 7.30pm but on Thursday we get another episode at 8pm so it’s like an hour episode with an half a hour break and that’s when I watch Eastenders as it last half an hour and Emmerdales on ITV same with Coronation street which is on Everyday I think it starts at 8.00pm or 7.30pm some nights it so gets a double episode on a Wednesday I think from 7.30pm and then at 8.30pm

[@bluebubble19]

Emmerdale Robron robron are about to get back together!

[@greybackwillmunchyou2593]

bluebubble19 I know don’t even get me started I’m so excited 🤣

[@bluebubble19]

Emmerdale Robron I’m torn, I kinda like Dr Alex! I just wish he had been written less awkwardly and could have been a friend instead of replacing Robert, or his own independent character, not wrapped up in the Robron story ugh

[@carolhugou]

I know I'm late to the party but wanted to say thanks for these videos! I've just subscribed. And your cat is beautiful, is he/she a ragdoll?

[@taffe316]

Yeah she was a ragdoll

[@kierboy1296]

Just to let you know you missed the best soap which is the longest running,CORRONATION STREET

[@taffe316]

I ended up giving it it's own video a few months later. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWnUZX6qoZiAkKM

[@DarkPlaysThings]

You forgot all of the death reactions 😂

[@mysticloverfairy1]

I was thinking about the intro to Hollyoaks if you never saw it and never heard of it,you would think it was a light hearted show.

[@fantasmagoracle]

This is one of hundreds of British accents, but Americans think it this or posh! That's like me saying everyone in America speaks with a New York accent! Lol! Makes me laugh!

[@brandonwright7976]

Definitely do more react to uk soap deaths

[@HarryLiamReeves]

Part 2!! :D

Hollyoaks is the best!

[@taffe316]

Naw pretty sure I was joking my dude lol

[@joshuaminke6629]

sure man, whatever you say 😉

[@bradleyb3901]

Can we have you react to the likes of love island, I’m a celeb, the island etc. (Reality?) oh and Friday night dinner?.

[@WelshAmethystGirl087]

I've always loved emmerdale, I used to be a huge hollyoaks fan but the story lines got too emotinal for me, the one that did it was kyle and Darren's storyline that got to me, same story for coronation street aidens storyline was too much for me

[@deekro8113]

Are you going to marry the dudes as well ¿ 6:30 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Still laughing

[@Hutchkins77]

where's the bill? beats coronation st and emmerdale

[@taffe316]

If I make a sequel I'll try to remember that one.

[@mizping19]

Where the fuck is Coronation Street? Cool video though had me laughing

[@taffe316]

I reacted to that in a separate video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWnUZX6qoZiAkKM

[@ceilesmammy]

The guy could've showed you way better clips then these

[@GeoNeilUK]

British soap operas would be better described as live action slice of life dramas, many of them have been going on for years, _EastEnders_ has been around for getting onto 30 years, _Coronation Streets is about 60 years old. The second soap you're watching is _Hollyoaks,_ which is kind of a replacement for an old British soap called _Brookside_ Brookside was an older soap about working class Scousers in Liverpool, Hollyoaks is about richer not-Scousers in Cheshire. Other Britsoaps you might want to watch are Casualty and Holby City, we used to have a good one called _The Bill_ which was a combined soap and police procedural. _Doctors_ is good too. Also _Hollyoaks_ is about 20 years old, _Emmerdale_ is about 40 years old. Our soaps have gone on for a *LONG* time. Also, there are some good Irish soaps. There's one called _Fair City_that hasn't been broadcast by any British broadcaster and _Red Rock_ which is kind of an Irish _Bill_ and has been broadcast on the BBC.

[@subhaan7861]

Hi there can you react to uk music well uk dance edm music artists like (example Elliot Gleave) please react to few of his songs when you just type in example not elliot gleave then list of his songs will come up his biggest is changed the way you kissed me. And allso ultrabeat,cascada and clubland.

[@taffe316]

I'll keep that in mind if I make more reaction videos!

[@subhaan7861]

taffe316 ok thank you

[@WillS.TheSuperReds.]

eastenders - depressing , screaming , arguing, very negative , extremely negative show all the time. Hollyoaks , Coronation Street and Emmerdale - Mixed drama between negative and positive emotions in storylines, but no where near as negative and depressing as eastenders 🙄.

[@rickygrimshaw1255]

[@Valkera]

React to coronation street!!!

[@charlestownsend9280]

I don't watch eastenders (or any soap, I used to watch coronation street when I lived with my parents but not willingly, the closest thing to a soap that I even got into was waterloo road) but why was even acting like complete assholes to the person who clearly has a drinking problem, being an asshole to addicts doesn't help them. Also why do soaps still mention that they have subtitles when everything has subtitles?

[@rhonwenwestern6562]

You forgot Coronation Street!!
