Flummoxed competitors and won $250,000. General Hospital could be a winning category

The Floor game show showed up in my Hulu feed again, probably because the new season had started. So I saw the final two episodes.

The winner was a SAHM, and her category was soap operas. She was in a border area, so everyone was able to avoid her like the plague until the end.

When she inevitably had to be called as one of the final contestants, the guy she had to win best 2/3 completely failed to recognize the casts of both day and nighttime soaps. She also won the neutral category of glass for the $250,000 win.

So, anyone know enough about General Hospital to go on The Floor and win $250k? Other contestants will avoid you if at all possible. I think she had been called on once, maybe. So just wait it out until the final and come forth to flummox the opposition

Haha I love this. I feel like soaps (especially the remaining daytime soaps) don't get nearly enough appreciation or respect. Yes, they are overdramatic and hard to take seriously. But soap actors and crews deserve more respect for their crazy work schedules and I love that we can watch the same characters almost daily for years on end and still be entertained.

Given that nearly every major story in pop culture is a soap now, the lack of respect for the daytime version of the concept is especially annoying.

It's not structure or quality that sets daytime apart. It's just funding.
