I can't believe it but just read that Soap Net is going off the air in 2012. Is this another sign that Soaps are on their way out? I know you can DVR your soaps but I became a fan of One Tree Hill and OC and so many other shows because of Soap Net. It is a very sad day I think. But I guess they have all run there course. There will never be another Luke and Laura and they seemed to have stopped writing for the audience a long time ago. I am so sorry to see it all fall to the wayside but I can't see losing Soap Net being good.
Quote:I only have cable for Soap Net. I like watching my soaps but what about other shows. Gilmore Gilrs, Being Erica, All the 90210 that you can take in a weekend LOL. This is sad news. I have to say Saturday morning I hate to get out of bed so I lay in bed for a little while and watch the old shows. It truly is how I became a One Tree fan. I had no idea what it was until I started watching on Soap Net and now I am a huge fan. So sorry to see it all coming to an end. What a shame. It was nice that us fans had a place to go to watch. I loved it when they had the talk show too. I loved watching our stars but even that started getting old. Will miss it.
why doesn't someone create a Classic Soaps Channel showing reruns of all the cancelled soaps..... Edge of Night, Search For Tomorrow, Another World, Guiding Light as well as the old prime time soaps. Like a TV Land for soaps.
That would be awesome. They could also include the great primetime soaps like Dallas, Dynasty, Falcon Crest, and Knots Landing. I know I would watch that channel faithfully.

I used to watch Soap Net all the time. Now i just use it (as I did the other day) when my soap was pre-empted by weather reports so I could watch in the evening.However, there is nothing special about Soap Net anymore. It used to be filled with Special soap weeks showing classic soap episodes...., Who wants to be a soap star, Soap Talk, lots of interviews with soap stars, all soap opera related stuff. I coudn't wait to see what was on each week.But seriously, do I need to watch the gazillionth rerun of 90210 - or watch recent shows that I didn't watch on their first go round on network TV. The network had little to do with soaps anymore and so I will hardly notice it's gone.Another Brian Frons disaster..

Soapnet did run these shows. One by one, they took them off air...probably because the rights ran out. I loved catching the old Knots Landing! I wanted to BE Donna Mills!....LOL Sex as a aweapon, baby!Would love them, miss them all.
