SOAPnet: More destruction and garbage coming

It wouldn't surprise me if SoapNet acquired the rights to reruns of "South Park" next week.

I mean, I "get" that SoapNet is geared towards women, and that there are many different types of programming (other than soaps) that women will watch. However, IMO, that's what LIFETIME is for. Leave SOOOOAAAAPPPNET to air the SOAPS!

I've been convinced after they acquired ONE TREE HILL and THE OC that they don't really give a damn about what real soaps are.

It seems like every network that caters to a certain market is being turned on its ear to appeal to a broader audience and I don't get it.

VH1 Classic is airing movies, specials, and BBC Crown Jewels Concerts instead of airing a constant, eclectic barrage of music videos.

FUSE(a network I never watched b/c of too much rock music) ais FELICITY. Flippin' FELICITY!!! That show is everything FUSE is against, or so I thought.

GSN, which used to air reruns of classic gameshows including WHEEL and JEOAPRDY, now airs nonstop poker showdowns and MILLIONAIRE repeats. Just as well...the only good things I've ever seen originally produced on that network were the Michael Larson Documentary and FRIEND OR FOE.

And now SOAPnet. A channel that used to cater to my needs that now appeals to every other Joe Blow that will watch everything BUT the same-day soaps on it.

SOAPnet. 2000-2007

At least episodes of South Park would be enjoyable..... :lol:

I agree that it doesn't belong on SoapNet though.....

I miss the reruns of the classic game shows to on GSN, they've mucked up their schedule somewhat; and it's not as enjoyable as it used to be. I liked watching the older versions of Family Feud (Dawson & Combs) on the weekends, and now they have Richard Karn's version airing on the weekends. I hate seeing game shows on GSN that have recently aired elsewhere in the past.......

Most of all I miss Match Game airing at 10pm Central on the weekdays.....Now instead of an hour of Match Game, they are airing an hour of Family Feud w/Richard Karn ...... :angry:

I loved Richard Karn as the most recent host of Family Feud, so it's not a problem with him; it's a problem with GSN and their schedule changes.....

I miss Match Game at the right time on GSN and Another World on at all on SoapNet...... :(

I thought it did too, now it airs on weekdays at 8AM CT for 30 minutes and 2PM CT for 30 minutes. I know I should feel lucky that it's on at all, but it would be nice if they aired it at times I could actually watch......

    • Christian Streaty wrote her second freelance script today on Days. Surprised they gave the first funeral episode to a newbie.  
    • And the third thing, which I have no cite for, and I may look to see if one is findable, but supposedly she said that the show had too much gay content in it. And, to be fair, that could be someone making a criticism about balance & not be bigotry but when it's added to the other, that's why it bugs people.

      The greatest tv series season finale in history.   
    • Mick Savage was sooo unbearable. And more unbearable was the reaction from the female characters to him - they were acting like he is God's gift to women and sooo irresistible. To a point of unbelievable cringe. 
    • Today was a short one. Only 33 minutes.  The ‘Part One’ graphic at the beginning was pretty interesting though. I didn’t expect them to do something like that.  I like how everything was focused around John and his family and friends. Again, the acting and the dialogue was very well done and well written. And I love that they were able to incorporate Drake’s, “swing for the fences” phrase into the script. It was nice seeing everyone interact with each other, especially characters who don’t often share scenes together. It felt like every character was part of a big family or community. Plus, an outdoor funeral in June makes a lot more sense than an outdoor funeral in December.  But yeah, it’s very, very strange that Will isn’t at the funeral, especially since we know that

      I would much rather he had been there today. And, where’s Anna too? And Jack and Jennifer? What was the point of bringing them all back if they weren’t going to attend the funeral? I expected Steve to want to close down BlackPatch, though I’d rather he just retire and let Paul take it over. But I like that Kayla was there to comfort him. I wonder if he’s going to change his mind at some point.  It was nice seeing Shane again too. Now, he just needs to have more scenes with his son lol but I enjoyed seeing him comfort Marlena. I’m not really sure about his interaction with Cat though? Was it really necessary for this to happen now, at John’s funeral? They could’ve waited a little longer to introduce this story arc.  Btw, was Tate bleeding from his head in his first scene with Arianna?

    • Now this strikes me as funny. I have it up on my acct. The thing is I only have S2. Didn't want either 1 or 3.  Perhaps I should just list all of these that I have up.  Parodies: Dirty Sexy Money, Filthy Rich Incomplete: The Monroes, All That Glitters, Falcon Crest (have all just not all up), Once & Again S2 only Complete: Models Inc, Pasadena, Pacific Palisades, Paper Dolls, Flamingo Road  
    • This is wonderful! Thank you for posting this! I loved the first two seasons and never got to see the final season when they cancelled the DVD release. I've been hoping this popped up on streaming but no luck. Happy I'll finally get to see how it ended!
