It is set in the fictional city of Genoa City, Wisconsin and started out as half-hour episodes, increasing to one-hour episodes on February 4, 1980. After a series of recasts and departures in the 1980s, the only original character still on the show is Jill Foster Abbott, now played by Jess Walton. Over the years, additional new families such as the Newmans, the Williamses, the Barber-Winters family, and the Baldwin-Fisher family was introduced, and in more recent years, a Hispanic family, the Rosales family.

One of the most famous stories that endured through much of the show’s run was the feud between Jill and Katherine Chancellor (Jeanne Cooper) who Jill later discovered was her birth mother! The show has won ten Daytime Emmy awards over the years for Outstanding Drama Series, and as of 2008, it had appeared at the top of the weekly Nielsen ratings in that category for more than 1,000 weeks since 1988.
