Because people are cruel and like to watch other people suffer,

personally, i hate soaps, can't see the appeal and find them mindnumbingly boring and think they're a waste of licence fee payers money, but some people like that thing, similar to the way some people think watching paint dry is an evening well spent.

i think mostly, though, it is because they are too unintelligent to understand anything else on TV, they would rather pay more attention to what is going on in a fictional place inside someone's head, than watch the news, about the REAL world, or watch people play sport, or find out more about the world they live in, through documentaries.

I think so. I have been watching them since I was a little girl, and I find connections to the real world.

Soap operas show basic human emotions that can be related to. Many of the situations, though, are very fanciful and unrealistic.

Maybe you think they're too dramatic or you have enough drama in your life and don't feel like watching it.

Sure, maybe not little kids, but teenagers. I watch All My Children, One Life to Live, and General Hospital- and I'm a teen. Young kids shouldn't watch the inappropriate parts though.

What tv shows do people watch in Ireland?

Well, just about anything - the same as you would in England or America or wherever you're writing this from. We watch American shows like Friends, Scrubs, Family Guy, South Park (I'm just naming my favs) we watch Irish soaps, English soaps, Australian soaps... the news... documentaries... I don't really understand your question as Irish people watch the same stuff as any other people - unless your question is rooted in a wondering if Irish people watch tv? Because if that's the question, then yes, yes we do. It's a first world country.
