Ranking Daytime Television's Most Devious Minds: The Top 10 Soap Opera Villains Of Color Of All Time

SAN FRANCISCO - Nov. 5, 2025 - PRLog -- A Hot Set journeys through soap opera history with a new feature, "Ranking The Top 10 Soap Opera Villains Of Color Of All Time.'' Daytime drama series wouldn't be where it is today without the dastardly characters who wreak havoc in the fictional worlds they inhabit. The feature narrows down the top 10 villains of color and details how they earned their spot on this list.

"Villains serve as foils to the main characters, and television would be somewhat boring without them…The best villains are fully realized, three-dimensional characters with a motivation for their antagonistic ways. Sometimes their motivations make audiences feel sorry for them, at which point a villain transforms into an anti-hero."

In addition, the feature honors the characters and their portrayers, who delivered complex, three-dimensional figures that both infuriated and entertained viewers throughout their run, where each ranked character is from a multiepisode a week series from the 90s to the present. Through the existence of these complex characters, the feature fosters a deeper understanding and appreciation of the genre.
