What are the similarites and differences between telenovela and u. s. soap operas

I have noticed that telenovela will last for about a year, but usually not longer than that, and a U.S. soap opera goes on for years.

Telenovela's have more music in the background to add to the dramatic effects.

Both are just as dramatic, from what I have seen.

If you have any questions I will respond just let me know?
