Line 2:
A format which has not been widely used for some time. See [[Dramatic Hour Long]], except shorter.
 
This format was fairly common in the fifties and sixties, particularly for [[Soap Opera|Soap Operas]]s, but has fallen out of use in favor for the [[Dramatic Hour Long]]. In the seventies most soaps in the United States switched to an hour-long format. The format was more common in the United Kingdom, and still is to a degree.
 
Among the only live-action half hour dramatic shows remaining on air in North America today are the [[Soap Opera]] ''The Bold and the Beautiful'', Discovery Kids' ''Flight 29 Down'', and ''[[Degrassi the Next Generation|Degrassi: The Next Generation]]'' (which is increasingly shying away from this).
