The OTH and BH90210 is so unnecessary. BUT I'm excited about Brothers and Sisters. One of my favorite shows.

SO HAPPY for the classic AMC/GH/OLTL episodes! Will definitely be watching or recording those. Wish Ryan's Hope wasn't leaving though.

So they're moving DAYs out of the 11pm slot. And taking away their 6 oclock slot. Inneresting.

What is their criteria for "classic"?

[All My Shadows]

*snorts the bold portion like it's crack*

Not really... they're just shifting it around a little bit to make up for the loss of AMC. It still gets three airings a day like the other soaps.

[Gray Bunny]

Didn't they once own the rights to air SISTERS? Gosh, I wish they had that on DVD...

[dragonflies]

That's one show I want on DVD so very much! I wish Soapnet would air it again

[Mr. Vixen]

Oh no I'm saying it's interesting for me, because the 11 oclock slot is when I generally watch. I'll have to figure something else out now.

[Marco Dane]

I wonder too post 2010 is not considered classic

[You're Soaking in it]

McTavish / Brown&Esensten / Pratt, with some Kreizman&Swajeski on the side.

[Mr. Vixen]

I'm looking for some 70s/80s stuff. I know we probably won't get that but I pray we at LEAST get mostly 90s.

[dragonflies]

I'm just shocked they are going to air classic episodes, I thought there was no chance in hell of that given that ABC seems to want nothing to do with soaps

[AllMyDaysatGH]

Can't wait to see the Best Of AMC episodes they air on the 17th and 18th and the 3-5am block of classic episodes sounds really cool. I'll definitely record those

[Cheap21]

Ive been contemplating whether to get cable or not and if they actually do air CLASSICS, I just might

[dragonflies]

I'm sure someone will Youtube them LOL

[All My Shadows]

That's what I'm counting on. Either that or ABC/SOAPnet streams them on their site for a limited time after they air on TV. It sucks that over the entire year and a half I had SOAPnet, the only old stuff they aired was two Christmas episodes of GH from the 90s.
