“A soap opera is a continuing fictional dramatic television program, presented in multiple serial installments each week, through a narrative composed of interlocking storylines that focus on the relationships within a specific community of characters.”

On the Brain?

As I was reading I came across the idea, which I am almost certain is personal opinion only, and quite possibly conjecture, that Telenovelas are superior to Soap Operas due to the fact that they have much better theme songs and intros.  I thought about this and couldn't come to an informed decision either way, but I am easily able to acknowledge that Telenovelas do in fact have interesting theme songs.  This is the theme song from a Telenovela entitled "Carita de Ángel."  The original author of the idea seemed to think that these themes were far catchier than those of American Soaps, either way, this theme is quite pleasing to listen to.  Do Telenovelas have more interesting themes? and if so, do these themes cause them to stick better with us and influence their popularity and success?
