Members tina m Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 This is all sorts of wrong. I feel a little blindsided by this news, especially after hearing how well the channel did in 2009. What a bunch of crap. I have no idea what the future holds for ABC Soaps after this. Not to mention, where else am I going to be able to watch repeats of Beverley Hills 90210 and The OC? Better start watching One Tree Hill now before SoapNet is replaced by some Disney Junior b.s Devastating news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 There's so many worthless cable channels apart of every cable package though, so many other channels need to die too. Maybe some other channel will try to pick up where SoapNet's left off? Probably not, but whatever... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rakesh Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 This is really a sad day for the soap world. DAYS is going to be in so much trouble when SN goes dark. I'm sure the Bells will find some other way to save Y&R from looking like GL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 Jamey Giddens from DC: According to V.P of Publicity, Jori Petersen, OLTL being left out of the initial press release was a typo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 :lol: Yeah, right. How can omitting 13 letters be a typo?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 They'll need a stronger technical producer than Paul Frickin Rauch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ReddFoxx Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 The channel was hardly what it used to be, the classic soaps have been gone for awhile now. The ratings outside of the same day reruns of the current soaps were likely very abysmal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 LOL. Yeah right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wingwalker Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 SO I guess according to Jamey Giddens, V.P of Publicity, Jori Petersen said that OLTL not being mentioned was a typo. Okay who actually believes that? Yeah and AMC was never moving to LA either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 OLTL always get omitted, so no surprise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 Yeah, they would probably end Y&R on their own, before they let THAT happen to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 I doubt they care enough, when CBS cancels their to shows, that will be that. CBS will pull the plug before the Bell's ever will. By 2015-2016, I don't expect to see any daytime soaps, and if there's any left, it will probably be one or two. Not that I care anymore. Daytime soaps are dead, no one wants to save them, and their time came and went years ago. At least I still get some enjoyment from UK soaps, and at least those shows always try to pull themselves out of the holes they get into from time to time, unlike US soaps.

Members DRW50 Posted May 26, 2010 Members Share Posted May 26, 2010 Instead they happily let Y&R look like a bad cable show from 15-20 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
