    Might be this, debuted on March 29, 1937

    1937 - The radio serial, "Our Gal Sunday", debuted. The question, "Can this girl from a small mining town in the West find happiness as the wife of a wealthy and titled Englishman?" was asked each day as the show continued for the next 22 years!

    More popularly known as "soap opera", these daytime serial stories were aimed at housewives, who often listened while doing laundry or other chores. Typical was "Our Gal Sunday" (based on a 1904 Broadway play of the same name), the story of an orphan girl named Sunday from the little mining town of Silver Creek, Colorado, who in young womanhood married England's richest, most handsome lord, Lord Henry Brinthrope -- the story that asks the question, "Can this girl from a mining town in the West find happiness as the wife of a wealthy and titled Englishman?"
