Sooo apparently there's this commercial that keeps playing on CW for #AllMyChildren of me in a bra. I've already gotten countless texts about it, but I haven't even seen it. Still not sure how I feel about this. #holycow #awkward?

[Darn]

People on this board are still confused about when they can watch the eps??? I feel like this is a joke.

[Ryan Chamberlain]

Not confused. Just pissed. 5am and the only computer with a large screen in my house is in my parents bedroom.

My mom plans on staying up and watching with though. But, we're kinda scared about waking my stepdad up. Hopefully he will be dead to the world by that time though.

It just shows to go you that even in an age of "on-demand" viewing, we still are creatures of habit.

[Darn]

Wait, what? Why not just watch it later? A big part of their advertising campaign is watch when YOU want.

I think soap fans look for things to piss them off and ignore the things that should. Ridiculous.

It gets uploaded at 5am Daily. HOWEVER you can watch the episodes anytime after that & for 10 days. After 10 days certain episodes will only be viewable thru Hulu Plus on the computer and mobile devices. This costs 7.99/monthly. Episodes moved to Hulu Plus will have an h+ on the icon that u click to view the episode.

If u pay 10,00 a month to Itunes U can watch and download the episodes to keep

[Khan]

I think they get all that, John, but in their heart of hearts, they wanted to watch it exactly as they did before, at the same time, if not on the same channel. (Hence, my "creatures of habit" comment above.)

[John]

People need to Adapt

[Khan]

I agree.

[Darn]

Well, they're stupid.

[Soapsuds]

Well most want to see it when it first comes out like a movie...not a second or third viewing a la re run....lol.....they could have aired it a noon with oltl following it....and then repeat it again at night....just a thought..

[Khan]

But in a way, I can't fault them. Look at what happens whenever post-ers on SON watch GH in real time: it's highly amusing. That's going to be no more for AMC and OLTL as each post-er now has to watch them at his or her own convenience.

[Vee]

That doesn't make any goddamn sense.

We're on the Internet. It's not on television anymore. There is no set time to watch it anymore. There is never going to be. Watch it whenever you want.

There is no "repeat." There is no viewing schedule. There is no rerun. You can watch it over and over as many times as you want, all day long.

[John]

Thats not how the net wprks. When its uploaded U can watch it . Over & Over again if u want to

[Khan]

First of all, there's no need to repeat anything on a viewer subscription service. Second, they had their reasons for "unlocking" each new episode at 5 am. If you truly want these shows back, then you need to make concessions and compromises in regards to availability.
