After 37 years on the air, one million different intersecting plotlines and at least 10 house fires and five car crash disasters of unspeakable traumatic impact, Neighbours came to an end in July 2022. Well, for about three seconds. Then it came back. You really had us for a second there, Ramsey Street.
During its (original) runtime, Neighbours kicked the living shit out of every single soap opera on the air when it came to cooked plots. I mean sure there was that whole thing with the attempted murder via bear with a woman slathered in honey on Bold and the Beautiful, but Neighbours possessed a certain Aussie je ne sais quoi that was simply unmatched.
