Preemptions


Recommended Posts

You've been able to watch it live or see a full recorded version of it that aired during it's regular time? If so, maybe it's playing in your area. I do remember one time during the impeachment hearings one of the days one of the soaps wasn't preempted where I live. I think it was Days. I think they did show Days that day but may have preempted Y&R/B&B. Maybe Days is deciding to air it some places. I do think that being preempted every day for like at least two weeks could definitely have a big and hard impact on the soaps and viewership.

I have pretty much where I am

 

On Monday, they interrupted the last 10 minutes or so, but yesterday and today I was able to watch without any interruptions.

 

I’m in NYC which airs Days at 12. I think if it airs any later then that, then it’s interrupted. What’s really stupid is right now, instead of a new episode of GH, ABC’s airing a repeat.

I believe Y&R was interrupted in progress. That’s why the episode was uploaded. Someone at CBS probably thought it happened to B&B too so they uploaded it as well and tweeted it out (probably an intern). They were later made aware of their mistake and deleted the tweet from the B&B handle and had the episode pulled from online viewing since no market (that I’m aware of) aired an original B&B episode. 


GH did not air an original. I believe they aired a re-run in some markets, however. 
 

Per ABC rep:

 

Episode 14382 is airing in Canada and any portions of the U.S. not impacted by today’s coverage.

 

Episode 14382 ORIGINAL AIR DATE: MONDAY SEPTEMBER 9, 2019

Liz is desperate. Monica stops by the ICU. Sony is looking to bargain. Brad tells Julian about his problem. Michael makes an interesting observation.

In my market on the east coast, we’re getting 1/2 hour of Y&R and that’s it for soaps. The Impeachment trial runs from 1-3 pm, pre-empting Days, B&B and GH, which runs at 2 pm here. I know other markets run GH at 3. At 3 pm, its back to regular programming. Tamron, The Doctors, Dr Phil.

Just out of curiosity, has anyone who still watches CBS soaps, watch from the NYC Tri-State area?  I remember when the NYC affiliate WCBS Channel 2 started to use TV55 to broadcast CBS Daytime when the main Channel 2 used the channel for weather emergencies and other critical programming that would preempt regularly scheduled programming. 

I just wonder if Channel 2 is currently doing this with the impeachment pre-emptions.
