I would consider them serials as well, but not like the Indiana Jones films since there were only three. Just like there were only three films in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy.

I would consider the Bond films to be serials but not soaps.
At least not until Stefano makes an appearance in a Bond film.

Peace...
