SHOWTIME (2/10)
Morgan Fairchild and General Hospital's Tony Geary star in this made-for-pay-TV parody of soaps, which answers among other burning questions: "Whom is Dr. Burns (played by Ed Nelson of Peyton Place) having an affair with? Will his wife (Texas' Elizabeth Allen) find out? Does Brad (Days of Our Lives' Jed Allan) love Jean (Fair-child) for her money? Is Maxine (General Hospital's Denise Alexander) guilty of murder? Is this just another stupid soap send-up?" The answer to the last question is yes. (Subsequent air dates: 2/14, 2/18, 2/20, 2/26)
