1.0 out of 5 stars Bad research, April 9, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Soap Operas Worldwide: Cultural and Serial Realities (Library Binding)

In regard of the european Soap Operas the author has done some really bad research. For better information you should prefer Hugh O'Donnell's "Good Times, Bad Times - Soap Operas and Society in Western Europe".
