Members bellcurve Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 LOL. With the crew splashing buckets of water on Mary Stuart's face and using horrible stock footage?! LOL. But even for RTN, which is barely a blip on the radar in terms of broadcast netlets? MyNetworkTV gets better ratings than RTN. Surely they can take a break from the occasional I Spy! episode to air something that people really want to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 The Colbys, Hotel, Sisters too, they got rid of all that just before I got SN. Wow, so, I guess they'll never make it through one full run of Ryan's Hope then either? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 I'm sayin'! Where I live they show Sesame Street and all these PBS kids shows in the wee small hours of the morning and I highly doubt anyone's taping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 Kids these days grow up so fast, and are under so much pressure, they're probably sitting in their cribs, sipping caffeine from bottles, watching CNBC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 And I don't think they can afford much either. No offense to my Mama's Family, but that was like a big step up for them. When I was in college I think Ion was called Omni or something like that, and then it became PAX, but I remember they aired Sister Kate back then and later Kate & Allie. Candy for a nostalgia buff, but not exactly the cream of the syndicated crop. I have no idea what the price comparison is, but here we have these short-lived 30 minute soaps just collecting dust when I think plugging them into an hour block is a worthy experiment.

Members SFK Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 Well you've touched on something right there, because it's wild how so many parents these days let their little kids stay up all hours of the night. I've seen that with some of my own relatives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 Kyle Abbott stalks and murders women because he was sexually abused by his boarding school teacher. Granny Cooper raped and murdered. Patty and Emily killed off. Lauren critically injured and shipped off to Switzerland! Aunt Jack murdered. When nuHeather and nuBilly figure out the truth, they confront Kyle and he kills himself. Diane is a no-show at the funeral. Nikki starts to have psychic visions and hosts a talk show called "The Nikki Reed Show." Wardrobe from Rodeo Drive paid for by SONY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 SCREW ABC AND DISNEY! This just proves the point that soaps are dead. When they are off the air for good my TV will be going out the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 Yeah, when I was a kid I used to try to sneak and stay up all night because it was so unheard of, I thought I was being daring. I guess now kids become jaded so quickly. So PAX is what now? I used to watch that back when they had Chicken Soup for the Soul, I always liked that show. I miss anthology shows, especially when they had C and D list people I could recognize from long ago programs (like Makin It/My Sister Sam/Be a Pepper/Werewolf guy, and Jerry Lacy, and Brett Butler...).

Members bellcurve Posted May 27, 2010 Members Share Posted May 27, 2010 PAX is now ION! I think at one point, they were touting themselves as having better numbers than both the CW and MyNetworkTV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
