One Less Life to Live would fit well with a Zombie game.

Good one, John! 1,000 points and ten bowls of soup for you! thumbs up

How about 'Generals' Hospital'? Lots of interesting premises there.

Only anyone who actually watched soap operas would remember that one.
Kate Mulgrew got her start on that one. She was annoying then, too. grin

"General's Hospital"? Remember the TV movie on the death of Patton?
With Himself as Patton?

Obviously, I was going for the 'zombie/horror/comedy' venue….in case folks didn't get that….(though most seemed to)…
I guess I got 'inspired/depressed' by the new 'Dark Shadows' remake movie with Johnny Depp.

BTW….Gates McFadden was on a soap opera during season 2 of ST:TNG when she and Roddenberry had (apparently) a falling out and she was 'replaced' by Diana Muldaur, (who'd appeared in TWO ST:TOS episodes as different characters….and later appeared as a limited regular in LA Law…

But that's another story! (and I still think Gates is a 'hottie'….)

I think all soap operas would be improved by a few RPGs into the studio.

Law and Order: Crimean Intent
The Middle-Eastenders
Dallas (, Georgia, 1864)
Fashoda Road

The title of nearly every soap opera on Telemundo would make a good RPG/Wargame title: Iron Soul, Crown of Tears, Vengance, etc.
