10/08/2021 03:24 pm EDT
'I do not understand'
"Can someone please tell me why in the hell General Hospital is a rerun today?" asked one viewer. "It is the middle of the week, and it is not a holiday. I do not understand this."
'What's the real reason?"
"There is no breaking news coverage," tweeted somebody else. "I live in Texas, not covering shooting, up until now, regular scheduled programming was on. So ABC, what's the real reason?"
'It's really terrible'
"I turned on MSNBC to see what was going on. It's really terrible," wrote one person. "Every time GH is preempted by news here we have to watch it on computer later or on demand late at night. Now it's not preempted by news and they air a rerun. ???"
'No reason'
"No news break in here in NY - I guess something happened in another state but usually they'd air that here anyway," commented somebody else. "Kind of over GH constantly being preempted or just canceled bc of news as if we can't get news literally anywhere."
'There isn't any news'
"Now [ABC] is preemptively canceling [GH] when there isn't any NEWS that can't wait until when the NEWS comes on???" questioned one person. "This tells us everything Disney thinks of [General Hospital] fans."
'What breaking news?'
"What breaking news.?" asked another viewer. "Watching the news and the only thing everyone talking about is the debt ceiling and the voting coming in at 3."
'Showed a rerun for no reason'
"I keep the news on all day at my house...saw nothing that should have kept GH from airing...now I sit down to catch today's episode only to find it's not airing AGAIN!!!" wrote another person. "So where's today's or should I say yesterday's episode? There are enuf news channels..geesh!"
