Same. I'll be home the first day to watch live via Paramount, but it'll be an early-evening stream for me thereafter.

This is just pure speculation/wonder, but it would be interesting to see if any CBS affiliates opt to air it in a late-afternoon timeslot. For years, Y&R came on at 4pm CT in Baton Rouge so that working folks had a better chance of seeing it, so my little corner of the world got it twice a day (BR plus 11am via WWL out of New Orleans). I doubt anyone is going to do specifically that for a brand new show, but I feel like a new show would benefit from it more than anything else at this point.

We finally got rid of You Tube TV last month. We kept it as long as we did because I was an enormous CW fan. Since the network has completely revamped, it made no sense to pay the $82.99 a month just for the CW. We'll be watching the premiere of BTG via Paramount+ Live and then stream it each night like others here have mentioned.

I think soaps in general have issues with physical action unfortunately due to the lack of rehearsal time and no money for stunt co-ordinators, so it always ends up falling a bit flat because the performer ends up being too self-conscious to just go for it. I do think she has the crazy eye stare down though (since it's a discussion apparently)

I mean, I want a scene like this from her:

Jamey posting congrats to BTG hair designer Wankaya Hinkon, after seeing her featured on CBS Sunday Morning.
(Wankaya worked on Ambitions).
I think she is congratulating Jamey for his WGA nomination as part of the DAYS writing team.

BTG's Wankaya Hinkon worked with Vonda Morris
on the hair-and-makeup team for "Lawmen: Bass Reeves".
I found some interviews with Wankaya and Vonda for the Bass Reeves series.
(Vonda isn't on BTG, but Wankaya is)

You can see the care that Wankaya takes in her work.

They are interviewed here by Variety

And interviewed here by Gold Derby:

I don't think this is about Jamey joining BTG.
He's just congratulating Wankaya because he knew her from Ambitions.

Yeah I know that MVJ worked on Ambitions with Jamey, and that Jamey lives in Atlanta.
But Jamey seems committed to his current dual writing jobs on DAYS and Sistas.  He tweets about both of those shows.
(Since there's a ginormous writing-to-taping-to-airdate gap on DAYS, I obviously don't know if Jamey is still at DAYS, but he's still promoting it.).

    • And, to me it is a little bit hilarious that AW fans all over continue to refer to it as Egyptian Dust Recently elsewhere I've been running polls. When did you stop watching AW or What storyline caused you to stop watching AW. You may be interested to know that sticking it out till the bitter end is winning by a landslide. Next highest vote getter is - no surprise - Frankie's murder. So that covers like 60% & next 20%. Then the votes drop way down to 10% and well below but a wide array of reasons are given, including but not limited to  Justine Lumina Rachel having twins at her age, how ridiculous Mac's death the 90 minute show firing JC, George R & Dwyer Hmm, I know there are a few more, in the 1%-3% range but I cannot think of what they are. Sorry, my bad. Should have made notes but I didn't know I would be posting about it. LOL!!  
    • A kind angel has added both episodes to the vault (UK Diva TV broadcast version). 
    • Yes, I think that is the most likely situation.  TPTB were unhappy with the offer(s) they got from the tourism board in Finland, and decided the trip was going to be too expensive for P&G/NBC to finance alone.   I would also speculate a similar situation likely occurred a few years later with the planned location shoot in Egypt, which was also cancelled after the storyline had already started, and changed to Arizona.

    • In my usual account on my most used video hosting site with the video title  DAYS 1-8-15 Will & Paul Sex This is an edit I began when I was first teaching myself to edit & at that time I couldn't make it do what I wanted it to do. I pulled it up & finished it this morning. 
    • Or Megan is shot as retaliation for Dave's unpaid gambling debts...while Julie confesses she's the biological mother of Special Guest Star Barry Bostwick's little boy.
    • Finland seemed such an odd choice for a location shoot. ATWT went to Greece and later Spain while GL had Tenerife and there were others in that timeframe. But Finland not being a known tourist destination or offering the tropical/sunny atmosphere usually associated with location shoots seems off brand. Maybe they were negotiating a deal with a tourist association and it fell through.
    • I was talking about 1986, but the glimpses of 1982 are about the same. 
    • I skimmed some of the 1982 synopses; Steve was planning on an opening an office in Finland, and I think Jim went there as part of the preparation. That probably was a big issue; AW had already gone to San Diego that year, with Rachel/Steve/Mitch. And to upstate NY with Pete and Diana. I wonder if upstate was as expensive lol  AW in 1982 has always fascinated me, because of how messy it was
