The residents of Salem, Illinois have endured love, mystery and murder for sixty years. Initially storylines focused on Tom and Alice Horton and their five children. Throughout the years, other families were introduced, most notably the working-class Bradys and the evil Dimeras. The 1970s saw the budding romances of Doug and Julie and Mickey and Maggie as well as the introduction to Marlena Evans, who would become a pivotal character to this day. The 1980s saw the emergence of supercouples Bo & Hope, Kimberly & Shane and Kayla & Patch as well as international adventures and mystery. The 1990s introduced more outrageous storylines including Carly being buried alive and Marlena being possessed by the devil. Love, mayhem and people coming back from the dead continue to like sands through the hourglass.
Days of Our Lives was the soap opera I grew up with as my mom was a loyal viewer since it's debut. The earliest storyline I remember is The Salem Strangler in 1982, which may be responsible for my love of horror movies. I would watch sporadically over the summer and Christmas breaks and became a daily viewer in 1995, just as Sami crashed Carrie and Austin's wedding. That storyline and the Marlena/John/Kristen triangle kept me hooked for the next few years. I still watch the show to this day, though there haven't been many storylines since the James E. Reilly era that have kept my interest.
