Soap Opera Update was a magazine dedicated to the coverage of soap operas, started in 1988, and purchased by Bauer Meda Group in 1992. The magazine became popular on news-stands in the mid-1990s. However, due to a lack of subscriptions, no promotion, and being criticized for mediocre content and "lazy" press coverage, the magazine was discontinued in late 2002. In 2006 the Update began issuing with Soaps in Depth to release a yearly issue to conclude the soaps of the past year and preview for soaps for the new year.

This magazine also produced the Soap Opera Update Awards, similar to the Soap Opera Digest Awards.
