Additional Comments: Does anyone know if and when Soapnet airs the full week's worth of episodes of Days consecutively?? It used to be on Sunday nights and now it's not. It seems they're always re-running all of the other soaps like Y&R and GH - but where's Days?? Are they on at all or just each night individually??

Message: Please tell me soapnet will be airing today's show sometime tonight! I think it used to come on at 11:00 PM EST. My local cable completely froze up on NBC this afternoon. It looked like both the HD and regular feed were screwed up. It wasn't just my house because my mom was the one who called me a little before 1:00 to ask if my TV was frozen too. I don't ever watch the show realtime - my TiVo tapes it everyday.

Message: Soapnet keeps me confused. From what I have deduced they run Days at 10 P.M. CST every week night except Wednesday for some reason. It comes on later for some strange reason on Wednesday night.

Message: In my opinion SOAPNET is a big WASTE!!! They show everything but soaps. I guess they show OLTL sometime in the middle of the night which is useless for me.

There will be no reurn to airing the Weekend Marathons of DOOL on SoapNet.
Recently, the merger was completed with Disney which now owns the ABC Network.
DOOL was dropped to avoid Conflict of Interest with NBC.
An exception was made for YR, which airs on CBS (also a competing network) because YR pulls in HUGE Advertising Numbers due to its ratings.
The Disney Owned SoapNet now only shows ABC Soaps (OLTL/AMC/GH - with the lone exception being YR)
The only slight reason I could ever see for SoapNet to resume showing DOOL as part of their weekend lineup is that, apparently, DOOL has supposedly been doing dramatically better in the area of sponsorships recently.
Remember, during the week, DOOL still is aired by Soapnet 3 times a day (Morning, evening, and late night).
