B&B: Launches BBTV app with entire library
A Y&R equivalent of this would be amazing. I’m not familiar with how easy it is when it comes to rights and who owns what, but i’d definitely sign up.

B&B: Revamped Website Unveiled
I don’t know if it’s been mentioned anywhere else, but is this service available internationally as well? I’m subscribed to the youtube membership currently but will happily swap if this is an option.

Neighbours: Discussion Thread
Appreciate the answer @Dion We don’t get credits here (at least not for Neighbours) so i’ve not seen them since the reboot. Though at least I didn’t miss any kind of tribute/thank you/acknowledgement sort of thing.

Neighbours: Discussion Thread
Question for anyone in the US/UK watching on Prime, did you guys get any kind of special end credits? To the surprise of nobody, the channel 10 airing just ended abruptly and went straight into Law & Order. I’m wondering if I missed some kind of tribute?

B&B: Old/Classic Discussion & Articles
So I don’t know if this is the right place to ask, but it’s a B&B thread so i’ll give it a shot. I haven’t been current on the show in years but i’ve been using their YT channel to slowly catch up on stuff i’ve missed. I recently finished 2019 and was curious, was there a Christmas episode that didn’t air? There’s a lot of mentions of a Christmas party happening but i’m not sure if that was meant to air or if it was just an off-screen event that was spoken about a lot. Also on the show New Year happens around what would be the 2nd week of Jan (real time), i’m guessing there was some kind of interruption to the show around the Christmas period to push things back? It’s totally irrelevant, but I am curious.

I was absolutely heartbroken hearing this during the show this afternoon. I’m genuinely devastated. I grew up with Harold, teenage me watched Harold and now i’m late 30’s watching Harold. I’m glad Ian got to have one final run in his amazing career.

Don’t think it’s been posted, but here are spoilers for the rest of the year. From reading it, it sounds exciting hopefully it comes across on screen too. Obviously don’t click the link if you don’t want spoilers. https://www.backtothebay.net/news/2024/11/18/neighbours-gives-first-details-of-huge-2024-season-finale/

Neighbours: Discussion Thread
So in the continuing world of Channel 10 having no clue what on earth they’re doing, Neighbours will in fact be staying at 4 days a week in Australia. https://tvtonight.com.au/2024/10/network-10-reverses-neighbours-decision-continues-at-4-episodes-a-week.html Why they changed their minds? Who knows but personally i’m glad they did. The conspiracy theorist in me thinks 10 wanted to axe the show once the initial lot of episodes were up (unless they already are) and decided to use this to test audience reaction to losing Neighbours a second time. The realistic side of me then kicks in and remembers that 10 doesn’t care about viewers reactions. (end rant)

Interesting, for me it’s the opposite. I’ve enjoyed this new version of Neighbours better than anything that was put out from 2011-2022 (obviously with a few exceptions). It hasn’t been perfect, I hate the 4pm timeslot and i’m still not used to 4 days a week, but otherwise I think the writing’s been mostly solid (aside from anything involving Wendy).

Firstly, Shane naming his son after his father is an excellent choice, I love that. Secondly, it’ll be great to see those episodes 2 months after the rest of the world does because Channel 10 here in Aus has bizarrely decided to drop to 3 eps a week until mid-December. https://tvtonight.com.au/2024/10/neighbours-slips-back-to-3-episodes-per-week.html

I have no clue how it actually rated in terms of viewers, but here in Aus Neighbours was trending on twitter during and after the Thursday episode which is something that doesn’t ordinarily happen. It probably doesn’t mean much, but at least there is still some decent level of audience for the show over here which is good to see.

I know this is long overdue and others have probably already said it, but Hannah Monson has been absolutely brilliant as Nicolette. She’s managed to turn around a character that originally had no redeeming qualities into someone I enjoy seeing on screen. So great.

A couple more recommendations for you, the death of Helen Daniels (mostly because of how significant a character she was) and whatever episodes are available of Karl’s affair with Sarah.

Soaps that lost their original/core families
If we’re including Australian soaps as well, Neighbours had a brief period of time in the late 90s-early 2000s where none of the original Robinson family was on the show. Eventually Paul returned in the final episode of 2004 and has been on the show since, but there was a Robinsonless time which now seems unheard of.

DAYS and Y&R: Australian schedule moves to 10play in June&July 2024
It’s been years since i’ve watched B&B (though i’m trying to catch up) but many of the complaints I used to hear were 10 not uploading uncut episodes of B&B even though they’re supposed to be same day, can any other Aussie’s confirm if this is still the case. I only ask because i’d hate to go from HD quality, same day as the US, unedited Y&R to the really clunky edits I remember B&B having.
