Soap Operas

2010-2020

School (2013) - An unprecedented and astounding event in the history of daytime drama. Manka Bros. Daytime Television is proud to present this epic soap opera based (slightly) on 'War and Peace' by Tolstoy. The show follows children as they start Kindergarten and will follow them until they graduate college.

2000-2009

Sequestered (2008) - Steamy drama about sequestered juries and the regular hotel employees that 'service' them. There are worse places to be on a Wednesday afternoon than poolside at the Hilton Garden Inn.

Aspen Sex Stories (1999) - Night-time drama. Stories of wild sex and adventures amongst the rich and famous in Aspen.

1980-1989

Manhattan Beach (1989) - A cosmopolitan city right on the beach. Feature the cut-throat world of a declining publishing empire. It's high-culture, mini-skirts and barely-there bikinis.

Throngs Of Ecstasy (1983) - Famous novel about land baron witches in Hollywood turned into a daytime drama. [Considered too racy for the time - and, unfortunately, even too racy for home video.]

1970-1979
