SOAPnet rewinds Ryan's Hope AGAIN


Recommended Posts

  • Members

I started watching the show on a regular basis a few months ago, and was looking forward to the 1982 episodes and seeing Marg Helgenberger in the role of Siobhan. It looks like seeing Marg in that role will never happen.....

SoapNet has decided to start airing Ryan's Hope from the beginning yet AGAIN.......

I'm so tired of SN f**king up everything, from taking Dynasty off right after I finally got their channel, taking AW off the air, screwing up Days "Sunday Nights In Salem" marathon, and now this crap....... :angry:

Fons like I said in another thread.......

Up your ziggy with a wa-wa brush!

Of course you may like that to much!

This is ridiculous!!!! How many times has SOAPnet done this now? 3? 4?

I'm a new RH fan...I only started watching when SOAPnet pulled AW. I've never seen any of the eps pre-1981, and I'm sure I will enjoy them (if SOAPnet doesn't cancel the show altogether).

But they need to finish off the rest of the run first! Where's 1982-1989? Does SOAPnet not have the rights, or do the episodes no longer exist (heaven forbid)??? I am totally invested in the late 1981 stories, and I don't want to have to start all over! It's especially unfair to all the RH fans who have already seen 1975-1981 MULTIPLE TIMES!!!!

What is wrong with SOAPnet??? They make way too many crappy decisions.

Oh, BTW, Andrea, this started with today's episodes. Absolutely no warning. Yesterday we had The Proud and the Passionate and Merit Kara, and today we have a young woman walking down the street in a green dress.

I cannot begin to tell you how PISSED OFF this makes me! I've been so invested in RH these past few weeks (The "Merit Kara" mummy mystery, The Proud and the Passionate, EJ Ryan)... I couldn't wait to see the "lost" '82 eppies and now we rewind back to '75?!? I seriously don't get it. Or the fact that there was no warning about this... what about current fans of RH who loved what they were seeing? Makes no sense. :(

I just started watching RH. I love it. So.... what you are saying, they repeat it all over again? That does not sound good.

I wonder if a show like RH would go over today? Roscoe Borne was/is a total fox. Who is the girl who plays Dehlia? She is terrific. Does she still act today? Do her and Joe ever become a couple or were they ever? When was RH cancelled?

Thanks for the link to this thread, Snark. At least I understand the reason now, but I'm still peeved! How do you just yank the current on-going storyline off the air with no warning? Very, very poor managerial skills on SoapNet's part.

    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
