Tainted Dreams is a soap opera that premiered on YouTube on December 30, 2013 and later moved exclusively to Amazon and Amazon Prime. The series debuted on Popstar! TV and the Popstar! App on September 23, 2019.[1] Created by Sonia Blangiardo, it is a "soap-within-a-soap" which follows the backstage drama of the fictional soap opera Painted Dreams.

Tainted Dreams was nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding New Approaches Drama Series in 2014, and one for Outstanding Digital Daytime Drama Series in 2017. Kelley Menighan Hensley, Michael Lowry, Natalia Livingston, and Anthony Wilkinson were also nominated for Daytime Emmys in 2017 for their performances.

Cast

Production and broadcast

Blangiardo created Tainted Dreams after the cancellation of the long running daytime soap opera One Life to Live, where she was a producer.[3][4] She said in 2013, "I was struck by the loss of this unique art form that had been such an integral part of NYC for decades. I wanted to somehow capture my own two decades working behind the scenes of three different NYC-based soaps."[3][4]

First cast were Minshew, Lowry, Willey, Hensley and Schulenburg.[3][4] In January 2013, Cantin of Bravo's The Real Housewives of New Jersey was cast as Alessandra DiGiacomo, a role written with her in mind.[3][4] Later cast additions in 2013 included Peck,[5] Zenk,[6] Aleksander,[7] Livingston,[8] Malloy,[9] Eakes,[10] and DePaiva, Kristen and Walker.[11]

The first three episodes of Tainted Dreams were released on YouTube on December 30, 2013.[12]

Tainted Dreams was licensed to Amazon.com for streaming through its Amazon Prime service starting December 26, 2016.[13]

The series debuted on Popstar! TV and the Popstar! App on September 23, 2019.[1]

Reception and awards

Writing for Entertainment Weekly, Alina Adams named the series one of the "4 best soap operas on the web" in 2015.[14]
