For B&B this means that - if they have already taped the Christmas show - they will air THREE days after Christmas!??

 

Correct based on the 3 full pre-emptions. I'm guessing it'll be later than that considering there's talk of more public hearings. B&B was already scheduled for repeats on Thanksgiving/Friday. so no make-ups like Y&R is getting. 

Looks like here we go again...and interesting - I'm DC I think I mentioned....the Fox affiliate is the only one not covering it of the major 4 so here at least I'll get Wendy Williams, The Real, and Tamron Hall...

 

Sucks because NBC here carries Kelly Clarkson and Ellen so won't get that today.

Today in NC Y&R was preempted for the Hearings at least partially. When I turned to CBS during the first half hour the hearings were on. I'm not sure if they ran the whole hour or not because I didn't turn to the channel again until it was time for B&B to air. And the channel actually is showing B&B right now. Also, Days was partially preempted but is now being aired on NBC.

I clicked from Fox to CBS here in DC and they were airing B&B.  And they're still talking about Thanksgiving being tomorrow. LOL.  Boy are they behind.

I noticed they were talking about how it's the day before Thanksgiving too. They got way behind lol. Y&R did get to catch up a bit on Thanskgiving and Black Friday by airing new shows, but the Bold slot aired something else on those days.

B&B lost 3 full pre-emptions. So M-W this week, was actually the M-W for last week. If it airs Thursday, it will be the scheduled Monday episode. It sounds like the networks did 'partial' pre-emptions for all shows from what I gather.

 

NBC didn't fully pre-empt DAYS once, I'm guessing it part of the strategy to push more viewers to stream, which is smart since it's revenue-based and they can track accurately.  

I'm reading on Twitter that Y&R aired Neil's funeral today. We were preempted in NY. So I assume today's show will air tomorrow nationwide.

You are correct: I just checked the CBS site:

Y&R: Full pre-emption for 12/4 scheduled episode will air 12/5 (barring more hearings)

B&B: 12/4 episode on CBS.com

DAYS: 12/4 episode available on-line

GH: 12/4 episode available on-line

Monday 12/9 - in DC - ABC, CBS, and NBC all covering the hearings.  FOX airing regular programming.  

These daytime divisions (or what's left of them) had better figure out a plan to prevent further permanent erosion as a result of pre-emptions because if this impeachment process goes to trial in the Senate, there will likely be more pre-emptions, which could have even deeper impact on these shows' ratings.

Today's episode of Days aired on COZI.

The ratings of impeachment hearings are very low - they are actually less than what all the network/cable stations draw on normal weekdays. So all of them are losing. During Watergate, I read the networks rotated airing the hearings in order to preserve the daytime lineups and that was with 3 networks + probably PBS. Ironic when there are dozens of networks, streaming, etc. that they're all choosing to air the same thing.

The ratings may be low for the impeachment hearings but for some reason, the broadcast networks still feel compelled to show the hearings on a regular basis anyway.  Losing ratings as they are, airing the impeachment hearings and consistently interrupting regular programming, especially programming as vulnerable as daytime soaps, is still having an impact. 

 

I still sense that these soaps have not prepared for this reality (no pun intended).

The Time jump was a failure and showing an episode when its being preempted everywhere else is dumb

 

 

I watched every day and every minute of the House Intelligence Committee hearings, but today is a dog and pony show and I can't stay tuned in.
