Coronavirus/Covid-19 Discussion Thread
^ Women's Olympics Hockey. The Canadian and ROC women's teams played a game with full covid masks on - because the ROC (Russian) PCR tests hadn't come back yet. (Meanwhile, there are people who complain that masks are inconvenient. Sigh)

Y&R and B&B: Feb-May 2022 soccer disrupting CBS soap broadcasts
According to some cable guides, and the CBS Sports website: on the following dates, CBS will air "UEFA Champions League" (European soccer tournament) during the timeslots when Y&R and B&B would normally air. Tues. Feb. 15, Wed. Feb. 16, Tues. Feb. 22, Wed. Feb. 23, Tues. March 8, Wed. March 9. https://www.cbssports.com/soccer/champions-league/schedule/20220315/ On each of those dates, the CBS Sports site says there are are two simultaneously-airing matches: one airing on regular CBS, and the other on Paramount Plus. The matches begin at 3:00pm Eastern Standard US time. The pre-match discussion show begins at 2:00pm Eastern. (There are additional matches on March 15 and 16 but they are all Paramount Plus and not regular CBS). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soccer_on_CBS_Sports#UEFA_club_competitions "In November 2019, CBS acquired rights to UEFA club competitions, including the UEFA Champions League, Europa League, for three seasons beginning in the 2021–22 season, replacing Turner Sports. The package would center around the CBS All Access (now Paramount+) subscription service, which carries all matches lives, with selected matches to be carried by the main CBS network. CBS Sports Network is largely carrying "whiparound" coverage on matchdays. CBS's studio coverage for the Champions League is produced from IMG's studio in Stockley Park, London. It seems like the CBS soaps might air before the pregame show in some timezones. But it looks like they are completely preempted in the Pacific Time Zone. ? ? ? It's confusing because different layouts of the same cable guides give different information. If I search by show, I get one set of results. If I search by date, or by zip codes, it gives various replies. etc. @Errol do you know? Will one or both soaps air reruns on some dates in some markets? Will one or both soaps air new episodes but at a different time of day or evening in some markets? Will one or both soaps post the new episodes online instead of broadcasting in some timezones? ____________________________________ And then of course there will be the regular annual March Madness NCAA basketball tournament preemptions in mid-March.

(new post from the actress Donielle Artese who plays TR's ex-girlfriend) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZyiGxkL2CC/ Feb. 10, 2022 Msartese (Donielle Artese) Almost missed saying Happy Black month Day 9. I’m gonna get right to the point Black message of the day: GET VACCINATED. In 3 months, 5 people I knew, died of covid. They were not vaccinated. I’m not a doctor, but I’m gonna go out on a limb and say, at least ONE, if not all of those deaths could have been prevented. I get it, there are 1 million reasons why you shouldn’t…I’ve heard them all. But can I share with you one reason why perhaps you should? Me. I have pre-existing conditions, take immunosuppressants daily, am in one of the highest risk group, got Covid, and lived to tell about it. Covid was BAD, really bad. I honestly do not think I would have survived without being vaccinated and boosted. If you don’t get vaccinated for yourself, get vaccinated for your friends and family. I’m seeing loved ones devastated, destroyed by the loss of their loved ones. People leaving young children without fathers and mothers. It is so unfair, and avoidable. You are important, you are LOVED, and should something happen to you, you will be missed PLEASE let your fear of death trump your fear or distrust of the vaccine. The vaccine IS working. Also, I am not looking for a debate, or your opposing opinion. This is a sensitive topic for me at this time. Please respect that.🙏🏾 #covidsucks #getvaccinated #vaccines #ᴠᴀᴄᴄɪɴᴇssᴀᴠᴇʟɪᴠᴇs- GENERAL HOSPITAL February 2022 Discussion Thread
Nice tribute to John Beradino! I didn't know GH had a restaurant named after Steve Hardy's portrayer. Weird that they used the scene for a place where Peter's goons dumped Valentin. I googled and learned that this sign was also used on April 9, 2021. The Finn/Jackie/Chase/Gregory family dinner was inside, and then the waiter went out the back door to this same alley to meet Peter -- Peter gave the waiter the drug to poison Finn (but Chase was poisoned instead). I like that the sign was displayed on April 9 (the GH anniversary). Weird how they use it, though.- Days: Paulina and TR Spoiler
. Yup. It's mind-boggling. And terrifying. And you can see from those posts that the particular episode was to be filmed in mid-November but they had to refilm it in January because of what happened. Apparently these reshoots happen fairly often at Days because of covid. Sometimes episodes are filmed within a single week that have airdates months apart. That's why reports of "this actor was on set today filming" don't mean much... as to who will be airing when. Theoretically a character exit could be filmed one day, and then the same character's return could be filmed a few days later -- yet the *airdates* of those scenes could be weeks or months apart. Or the character could be done, but then the actor is brought back weeks later for a reshoot. Allowing unvaccinated cast/crew really messes things up -- and Days gets away with it only because they have a huge amount of time to reschedule filming of scenes.- Soap Hoppers: The Soap Actors And Roles Thread

That Stitch-as-bio-father speculation has been circulating for many many months, ever since Stitch was in town last year stalking Abby and holding Mariah captive. It's just speculation but ... Why was Stitch in town? He said it was to go to a retirement party for a former colleague at the hospital, and then he was going back to wherever he was living, and that he had to go back home to be near wherever his son Max was institutionalized. But then why did Stitch take that colleague's job at the hospital? Had he been around way back when and sneaked into the hospital to mess with the conception or implantion process? As mentioned above, the *speculation* is that he wanted to replace the child that Abby miscarried. I hope Dominic is not Stitch's kid. Stitch's son Max from his first wife, Stitch's sister Kelly (played by Watros and McClain), and his mother Maureen (played by Meredith Baxter), and his dead father *all* had serious mental illness and violence issues. And then there was Stitch's behavior last year. The whole family had issues. The genes are there. There is no way I want to see Abby raising a violent child. The character of Abby is too vapid, and M.O. would not be able to handle that. And the show couldn't write it. Plus, if this speculation came true, then they'd write Max escaping from the mental institution to kill his baby brother. All awful.- GH Feb sweeps
The cable guide list has been updated (previous page of this thread) https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/60472-gh-feb-sweeps/#comment-1774973 Still wondering if the Feb 18 spoiler is the ice princess weather machine? Hard to tell from the subsequent episode descriptions because they are so vague. Looks like Victor is frustrated a couple of days later, so maybe not? I like that Laura sets Esme straight. And still very curious about Terry's date!- Y&R February 2022 Discussion Thread
The doctor phoned Abby and Chance today to say that Dominic needs a bone marrow aspiration. So the obvious questions (not spoilers, just speculations): Whose egg and whose sperm were combined to create the embryo implanted in Mariah? Was there an accidental mix-up? Or was someone being nefarious and if so, why?- GENERAL HOSPITAL February 2022 Discussion Thread

They were simply quoting the interview. https://soaphub.com/young-restless/soap-vet-robert-newman-talks-playing-ashland-on-young-and-the-restless/ I think it helps to know what Robert Newman says about his contract. And yes of course RN knows (and we know) that it could be ended after any 13-week cycle. Or the show could decide later on to extend it. Maybe the show doesn't want to commit to keeping the character of Ashland for a full year. Or maybe the show isn't committing to RN for some other reason. I dunno. I just find it interesting.- Guiding light alum joins YR
First scene Canadian broadcast today: Voiceover: the role of Ashland Locke is now being played by Robert Newman". He's talking with Adam. RN points to himself (taps his chest) when mentioning "Newman Media". Probably a joke referencing the actor's name.- Y&R February 2022 Discussion Thread

Actual dialog from today's episode! LOL- ARTICLE: ‘Promised Land’ Not Living Up to Its Name in the Ratings
I don't have cable, so I can't see shows broadcast on ABC. Recently I got hulu and discovered that some ABC shows are uploaded to hulu the same day or night. On the first night that Promised Land aired on ABC, I checked Hulu. Episodes #1 and #2 both appeared on Hulu that night. So I watched both together seamlessly. Really enjoyed it! I liked the twist about the histories of the characters. I was bummed to have to wait two weeks to see episode #3. Stayed up last night to wait for Episode 3 to drop to Hulu. Unfortunately #3 had too much exposition. I agree with the above post that Bellamy Young doesn't fit.- GH: Classic Thread
A few days ago someone on soap twitter decided it was important to have observance of Genie's 45th anniversary and suggested it be done on twitter, and the word spread, asking everyone to tweet with these hashtags today #Genie45 #GenieIsGH That word has been spreading for several days. And oh look ... Was that a preplanned canned tweet? Probably. The question is ... will the show actually do something to honor her?- Days of Our Lives: February 2022 Discussion Thread
Ron was answering questions. Fame10 just wanted to give it a scandalous headline for clickbait. @Errol already reported Ron's tweets here (without that headline) https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/60538-article-‘days-of-our-lives’-head-writer-ron-carlivati-responds-to-question-about-lack-of-cliffhangers-in-final-episode-pre-olympics-hiatus/ Fame10 added an additional tweet to their report, which showed Ron being slightly exasperated. However fame10 didn't report this: the tweeter Ron was slightly exasperated with?
