Santa Barbara which aired on ITV at 10am just before Richard and Judy back in 1987-88, lots of clips on here:

I used to watch that; it was SOOOO crap.

I remember they had an earthquake once, and the effects were so cheap; all they did was wobble the camera around, and push some books off shelves

Yes, I remember it. Those Capwell kids' mum had died, then she turned up dressed up as a bloke so as not to reveal her identity. Quite weird in a lot of respects. But i was a bit hooked at the time.

I think it was the one of the best US soaps ever made! I watched it on ITV then sky in the 80s.

Yes its the quality of the storylines that hooks people. The acting can be not as good but thats ok.

I've heard of this, and have watched the intro's on Youtube. It does look really funny, especially the theme tune and that.

Why did ITV stop showing it?
