Members Mr. Brightside Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 gosh. anyone remember the AW campaigns? My fav was the Campaign to Save Another World...CSAW. Didn't they also have an Angels group! But yeah, its interesting since many fans picketed outside the Today show 8 years ago to save AW from PSNS. And now, The Today Show is doing in PSNS.

Members JER Soaps Fan Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 If "Passions" is canceled, I'm going to pray a rosary every day that the fourth hour of "Today" is an instant flop and the network NEVER finds an adequate replacement for that hour. No matter what they try, EVERYTHING will fail to get anything above a .7 rating. AND THEN they'll see the error of their ways and WISH they had "Passions'" 1.7 and incredible demos. WITH GOD on my side, NBC, you stand only to LOSE, jerks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Brightside Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 JSF, I wish you luck. Seriously TODAY will BOMB! Most people don't even know about this and lets face it...the students who do watch PSNS (the 12-24 yr olds) sleep in during the first 3 hours of Today. And in the proposed fourth hour, they'll/we'll still be asleep! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JER Soaps Fan Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 Thanks for the luck. And Mr. Brightside, NBC is just RIDICULOUS to think this UNPRECENTED fourth hour of the "Today" show will be successful. Why risk it? Why lose a sure thing (the audience of "Passions" -- which is a devoted one at that) for a RISK that will tick off two million viewers? NOT adding the fourth hour of "Today" will annoy virtually. NOBODY will care. But canceling Passions -- the sure thing -- WILL, WITH NO DOUBTS, tick off all its fans. It's a BAD business decision. Look at me. We're still in "likely rumor" stage and I'm already anti-NBC!!!! "Passions" fans WILL NOT take this lying down. Don't underestimate us, NBC. We mean BUSINESS. Unlike YOU, with your faulty business proposals that concern the "Today" show. You are CLUELESS, NBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kylie Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 I haven't watched Passions in a good two years, but...if watching means saving it, then I'm down. Today is terrible, and as a college student who fits in where Passions is, let me just say, that on 3 of the 5 days during the week, I'm rolling home just as Passions starts here (2pm), so it's perfect timing. There is no way in friggin hell, that I'm going to get up when I don't have to watch more Today of all things. Nope. I'd rather sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 LoL, you sound just like the angry AW fans. That didn't save their show, though. Unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kylie Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 This won't be like my fight for AMC's Josh, I sold my soap loving soul for that boy, but I'm willing to at least rally for Passions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mr. Brightside Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 So news coming from the board that shall not be named is that 1) CBS has told them to pack up and leave (they rent the studio from them) and 2) the guy who plays ethan is telling fans "no worries" <-- but that still doesn't mean much as the cast is always the last to know.

Members DruRocks Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 Okay, so "what's the board that shan't be named"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members downwhtone Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 FYI.....NBC Universal has cancelled the Megan Mullally Show. Could this be a reprieve for Passions? Here's a link to the article on Yahoo: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070104/ap_on_...e_o_c__canceled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 If we named it, it would no longer be TBTSNBN, LoL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KLN Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 I thought that Megan Mullally was syndicated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members mateo22 Posted January 4, 2007 Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 The MM show is syndicated, so there is no effect on Passions fate or not. The show doesn't even air on NBC here, it aired on the CW I think and at like 4am.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members skiman12082004 Posted January 4, 2007 Author Members Share Posted January 4, 2007 I have been so upset the past couple of days about Passions. Could this be a glimmer of hope that the show won't be cancelled? Should I get my hopes up again? This so sucks, I just want to know for sure already!
