Creamy Shrimp and Corn Soup

"The soup was good, but needed more of a seafood taste. The next time, I think I'll replace the cream of chicken soup with Campbell's Shrimp Bisque. Also, for more of a Maryland flavor, I added a lot..." See more of Old Bay, instead of the listed herbs. Also, don't cook the shrimp with the onion... it makes them very tough.
