I don't agree that the witch and a few other things is the problem. Trassions being filth cannot be disputed, but Tabby and Timmy were a big attraction, and they were an integral part of what should have been a blossoming show. I loved them, and I also appreciated that it was only 1/4 of the show. Hell in the Closet was our 1st sign that Reilly should be on meds... That is when the show began to severely go downhill.

Tabby and Timmy were original and a welcomed changed. They matched perfectly with the rest of the show. Who knew that Reilly had no intention of taking the characters/stories anywhere? Innovative? Brilliant? I laugh at that! The man would not know drama and sunspense if he tripped over it...

Why so many fans abandoned the show is the question as opposed to why so many began watching.

The mere fact that each and every character has been destroyed for plot purposes, not one character has developed in the 8 years this show has been on the air, the "stories" have contined from July 1999 with no resolution in sight (even after being cancelled), the characters say the same thing day in and out, the woman are all self loathing and chasing a man, the men are too stupid to live, no one is really interesting, the characters only interact with their love interest and/or the character torturing them, no one is happy, the head nonwriter is obsessed with beastiality, nonconsensual sex, violence, degredation of women, a bunch of eunuchs, the copy paste thing Reilly has done for about 6 years...is PLENTY reason to not take this show seriously...

Reilly simply destroyed his own creation, and NBC was right to kick him out!

I knew we wouldn't get any closure on the network run front. I guess as happy as I am for those who have DirectTV or those who are willing switch, I'm still bitter. Prlly really won't missing anything anyway, nonetheless, it'll be interesting to see where this all goes- how the show looks, who stays/goes, etc.

It has taken me forever to respond to this absolutely amazing development for Passions, because I've been really busy with work. However, I'm beyond thrilled that its going to continue. I'm strongly considering a switch to DirectTV. I have a couple of months to figure out if that will be a beneficial move for me or if NBC will still show the same day episodes at NBC.com. Passions is a wacky, fun, endearing, addictive and entertaining show. I hope it prospers on DirectTV and becomes a pioneer for the soap opera genre. I'm looking forward to season 9.

You're absolutely right about Timmy and Tabitha being original and a major part of what made Passions interesting to say the least. Right now Endora is probably the cutest thing I've ever seen on that show and I love watching her and Tabitha together which is kinda sad. I guess what I was trying to say was that them combined with all this out there stuff just ruined it for me. It went too far and it became so ridiculous.

Youtube is becoming the Devil. I hate that place nowadays. Sorta like I've grown to hate eBay also.

      Teach me to post cocky about all these rampant relations! As for the cut, it just made Leo Howard look more stunningly handsome. There are guys I think are hotter, but he's got the prettiest face hands down.

      Yes Arianna and Sami are blood related through Sami and Theresa. They are also adoptive/honorary related because Arianna's third.parent is Sonny, which makes Arianna and Tate related through Justin and Isabella.

      I saw more about Biden Old or the staged feud between Elon and Trump or just the usual distractions, but I will admit I don't stomach most of the news anyway.

        They are blood related. Through Sami and Theresa. I didn't notice it last week, but it looked so fresh today. Like he got cut minutes before they started filming or something lol

      Bill convinced the Governor to pardon Luna. Steffy was too busy badmouthing Hope & Brooke for most of the Spring to concern herself with such trivial matters.

      There hasn't been a media blackout, there's been live coverage on national news all weekend.

      There's been something of a media blackout, but beyond that the only reason it's getting any attention is because Trump and the Republicans and their sycophants in the press are trying to create riots to pave the way for martial law.  And of course all the people who care more about setting fires and destroying property than anything else are happy to help them.  I've seen more interest in people arguing about whether or not they should be waving Mexican flags and how American flags are tainted than I have in the cause, which just reinforces what a malaise we are in. Many who claim to care about immigration only care to the tips of their fingers, just like Palestine and the rest. But these policies what people voted for. As long as they personally aren't affected, they are eating all this decimation up.

      I was happy to see Caroline again even in one short scene. This was her first appearance since April 3. I was wondering why we haven't seen her, since Hayley desperately needs a talk-to aside from Bill.  I am also wondering where Jacob's partner is. Does Marcel have an opinion on Jacob spending so much time on the Laura case? Especially since Marcel warned Jacob about allowing his family to get in the way of police business. I liked seeing some vulnerability from Leslie today when she begged Eva to give her the helmet and gloves back. I'm still wondering how she will get out of the corner she has been written into. When we were first introduced to Leslie, she seemed like she might be a Machiavelli but since then it's clear that she more of a haphazard villainess doesn't seem to have a long term plan aside from causing random chaos.  Chelsea's desperation is cringeworthy but I actually think it's fairly realistic for someone who is closeted or newly out.
