  1. According to SOD (Link)

    On Tuesday April 16, 2024, this happened:
    USA got the Tues April 16 episode on ABC,
    but Canada got the Wed. April 17 episode on CityTV.

    On Wed. April 17, USA on ABC will get the correct Wed April 17 episode,
    and Canada on CityTV will get the Tuesday April 16 episode they missed.

    That means by Thursday April 18, everyone will be watching the same scheduled episode of GH.

    • Canada:  Wednesday, April 17

    SOD says:

    — human error.

    There was a mix-up and Canada ended up airing Wednesday’s episode. But our friends up north will not miss out on anything because tomorrow, they will get the Tuesday episode, while the U.S. will get the regularly scheduled Wednesday episode.

    That means by Thursday, everyone will be watching the same scheduled episode of GH.

    Two amazing episodes!

    Victor's memorial & Dick Van Dyke!

    No, it wasn't two episodes, it was three.
    Fairman said "According to a DAYS spokesperson, the nominated episodes this year for Days of our Lives are #14663, #14678 & #14679,
    which revolve around Victor’s death/funeral, and part of Dick Van Dyke’s storyline as Timothy Robicheaux."

    Episode #14663: Friday, August 18, 2023
    Episode # 14678: Thursday, September 7. 2023
    Episode #14679: Friday, September 8, 2023


    Ron explained to Michael Fairman that
    DaytimeEmmys writing submissions are two episodes;
    but WGA submissions are three episodes.

    The first episode was characters learning of Victor's death, Suzanne Rogers 40th anniv, Shawn-Douglas being stressed, Chloe considering Xander's marriage proposal, and Xander learning that Sarah is pregnant.

    The second episode was Victor's memorial.

    The third episode was mostly about the aftermath of Victor's memorial with Sarah giving birth and Vivian arriving, but also had some John/Timothy scenes.

    Nice soapy history picture.
    Marie, Maggie, and Liz all had marriages/affairs with Neil Curtis.

    Marlena, Maggie, Liz, and Julie all had marriages/affairs with Don Craig.
    Part of me wonders if anyone will address where Don Craig went after he mailed that letter?

    But I know the episode needs to be about Doug and Bill Hayes, and not whatever Don Craig info I'm curious about, LOL.

    Does anyone know if CBS will air those UEFA matching in 2025? They are pretty frequent in 2024.

    It certainly wouldn't help TG if it's pre-empted in the MT/PT time zones two days a week over several months after it's launch. Just sayin'

    I was just coming here to ask that!
    This is the third year in a row they've followed this schedule for UEFA (European soccer):

    • Four dates in February for "round of sixteen, first leg".
       
    • Two dates in March for "round of sixteen, second leg".
      (There are four matches in March for round of sixteen;
      but only two of the March matches air on CBS broadcast TV.)
       
    • Four dates in April for quarterfinals.
       
    • A few dates in late April and/or early May for semi-finals.


    Same thing, three years in a row.

    2022 SON thread on this (Link)  
    2023 SON thread on this (Link)
    2024 SON thread on this (Link)

    CBS has the contract for UEFA through 2030!

    In my opinion, it would be helpful if the CBS soap people and the CBS sports people would talk with each other.  The first year, B&B and Y&R tweeted out notices that if you live in an affected timezone, to watch the soaps on the soccer dates via another channel/time or online.  I think B&B even tried to tweet out alternate channels and overnight times in Feb. 2022.  But last year and this year, they didn't bother.

    What gets me, is that every year,
    CBS soaps do silly little promotional videos
    for NFL (American football) and March Madness basketball.  Especially Joshua Morrow and Michelle Stafford joking around about what teams are playing.  Usually some B&B actors do similar sports promos.  These are well-coordinated.  And then CBS sports or the NFL retweets them, so it's a true cross-promotion.  Sometimes they do two different NFL/soaps cross-promos, one at start of season and the other for the Super Bowl.

    But the soaps don't acknowledge the soccer at all.  And the networks don't acknowledge that the soaps are affected.  I mean ... you know Eric Braeden used to play soccer.  Couldn't he do a fun promotion?
    But no.   CBS soccer and CBS soaps don't acknowledge that each other exist.
    The NFL and basketball sports/soaps cross-promotions have been going on for years.  There hasn't been a *separate* "CBS Daytime" division since Angela McDaniel left, -- daytime is part of the greater whole now -- but the pattern was already in place for NFL and basketball so those promotions continued.

    I don't mind the soccer preemptions in some timezones, but it's ridiculous that the soaps don't acknowledge it, and it's up to messageboards to let people know.

    Oh and remember Clarence of "Clarence Updates"? 
    He wanted to be on Y&R for the 50th, but he had to approach CBS execs because nobody approached him. Why is that?  He had to initiate it, and then he appeared at end of December 2023.
    https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/exclusive-brad-sanders-on-bringing-clarence-back-to-the-young-and-the-restless/
     “One of the radio stations said, ‘Look, man, you need to be a part of the 50th anniversary. You should be there!’ And I said, ‘Yeah, let me call!’ So I called [Vice President, Daytime Programs, CBS] Margot Wain and she called [Director at CBS] Danielle Unger and they were like, ‘Yeah, it sounds great!’ And they set it all up.”  

    So there *are* people who can get things done.  Can they help with coordinating with soccer?  
    I'd really like to see this fixed before The Gates debuts!
