So i just read that General Hospital has over 60 seasons and the longest airing show ever is Guiding Light at 72 seasons.
So like are each season consistent with the last? Do they reference something that happened 10seasons ago? Do they use the same actor/actress for all seasons? Is soap operas just a dramatized version of real life?

A defining feature of soap operas is a continuously running, open-ended narrative. Each episode will typically have multiple different storylines that intersect with each other due to shared characters and locations. They oftentimes don’t have well-defined seasons, and may reference narrative events from *decades* prior.
