Appear so excited about love in TV drama (4,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

soap opera

'tv drama' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'appear so excited about love' is the wordplay.
'excited' indicates an anagram.
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'love' becomes 'o' (In tennis, 'love' means 'zero').
'appear'+'so'='appearso'
'appearso' is an anagram of 'sapopera'.
'sapopera' placed around 'o' is 'SOAP-OPERA'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for soap opera that I've seen before include "TV show" , "that might involve The Woolpack?" , "TV serial such as Coronation Street" , "Everyday drama serial" , "addictive programme?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
