Soap Opera Fans - craziest storylines you remember from the Soaps
I remember Young & the Restless did a storyline about how the police infiltrated the boss with their own person. Nothing that crazy except the person in question was a black man and they made him up to look white. Obviously the mafia bosses never questioned why this guy wore excessive makeup and got so deeply involved he almost married the mob boss's daughter.

1. I don't remember which soap opera it was
But the storyline was a "What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?" character and all this craziness. I think they were in a cabin and there was an elderly women who had the mind of a child and dressed like a child. I think there was a corpse involved somehow too.

2. Marlena being possessed.
Not that soaps are known for their great writing and deep story lines, but I had to quit watching after that. Beyond stupid.

4. Beyond Stupid: Cloning Reva
I think it was Alan that paid to have Reva cloned. The cloned age very quickly and it was kinda neat seeing teenage Reva but eventually she became adult Reva AND the real Reva returned from the dead yet again. Eventually cloned Reva (now called Dolly) died of old age.

8. James Franco was amazing on 30 Rock
And his true love - a Japanese Full Body Pillow

The best was the very end with the 3-way (I won't say who)

10. Just about anything on Passions
Though I will say that the show was a bit campy. Can't even begin to describe the storylines.
