SOAPnet: Port Charles

[Joe]

Okay, I just got a DVR and SOAPnet and am thinking about trying out Port Charles now that I get it. My problem is that it airs two episodes back to back, twice a day. I was wondering if the episodes that normally air at noon are the same episodes that air later that night around the 4 o'clock AM Eastern hour? If I set my DVR to tape the entire series, it tapes both sets of airings. If they aren't the same episodes, are they consecutive episodes? Like, say the two noon episodes start a week's worth of shows by showing Monday and Tuesday, and then the 4 AM episodes continue with Wednesday and Thursday? Or do both airings run on different timelines, like the noon airing shows episodes from 2001 and the 4 AM airing shows episodes from 2003? I tried looking at the SOAPnet website, but it wasn't much help with answering my question. Can anyone help me?

Thanks!

Joe, I think after this week, PC will no longer air at these times. Soapnet has canceled AW and moved RH and PC to just one hour per week on the weekends.

Oh, bummer. Thanks for the info! I appreciate the help!

To answer your original question, the PC episodes at Noon are different than the ones at 4 am. I think the ones at Noon are on the "Tempted" arc and I can't remember what arc they're airing at 4 am

Right now in the early morning, the show is on "Naked Eyes"

Thanks! I guess I'll wait to see how the new schedule effects either of the runs before I decide which one to watch.

The fact that PC is going to two eppy's ever Sunday makes the show not even worth watching. And I wouldn't get invested in PC. It won't be around that much longer anyways. I say it is gone sometime this summer and replaced with weekend showings of OTH and The OC. If Frons had his way, he would have axed RH and PC, too, but then that would just have made his agenda more obvious. PC and RH are gone when the fallout from AW dies down.

Imagine watching any of the current shows only twice a week. Frons sure screwed over PC really bad. I dont get why they just wont show the first 3 years. That has not been seen on SN in years and new to alot of fans. The show is only a half hour so I dont get why it and RH cant just appear in 1 hour block together. Serriously does he think SN doesnt have 1 hour to spare now?

I'm sure he does realize SN has an hour to spare...just not for soaps that would put his current ABC lineup to shame.

1991 AW pretty much puts all soaps on these days to shame.
