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.

    • It was nice seeing Victorias house and I see it’s been remodelled. I’m sure this happened awhile ago but since I tuned out from the show for so long I am only noticing it now. Looks beautiful though!  Also, Billy and Sally gross me out so much. I don’t know what it is I hate so much about them. They give me the ick. Definitely a mismatch. I don’t buy that these people would be attracted to eachother in real life much less have a relationship..

    • Also, isn’t there supposed to be a storyline with Mariah and Tessa? Mariah cheating or something (keeping some kind of secret) and they were only on screen 2 and 3 times this month. Like what? How am I supposed to care when I barely see them? 
    • Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.
    • Sounds like me, but I prefer to be referred to as Contessa. We all know I can go a long time not paying attention to certain things.  And, if I might add, hey there dude, you effed up pretty good this time and I think this was your last chance. So don't let the door hit you in your behind as you go BYE MOMMY!
    • That did cross my mind at first, but I'd be more inclined to believe it if this didn't involve Trump. I'm not at all sure he is capable of being that sneaky. Of course, there's always a possibility I guess that his advisors are doing it without telling him, but that seems awfully risky. Trump is such a loose cannon you can never predict what he's going to do or say.
    • Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.
    • I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.
    • I didn't rewatch that period, so I'm not really sure how much Bill is on. I recall something about him living at the boardinghouse. I think Van made Matt his guardian, and why she didn't name Josh would be a mystery to me, other than the HW decided they needed to keep Bill in Matt's sphere. Nola is also his aunt, although they don't know each other well, and Van wouldn't have trusted her anyway. There's Dinah---but she's unreliable. Billy gets out of jail around NYE.
