I wish Global would switch it back to 3:30 so I can watch The Bold & The
Beautiful.

I don't watch B&TB, but it comes on at 12:30pm here. This is interesting too as in 4 states (cities) that I have lived in, "Knoxville, Tennessee", "Fort Worth, Texas", "San Diego,California", and "Santa Fe,New Mexico" Days comes on at 1:00pm and B&TB comes on at 12:30pm ...

Coincidence, or maybe that is the time recommended by the producers of each show?

I like the way it is here (Vancouver, BC). I can watch Days at 1pm and then
see the next days show at 4pm. That way I only have to watch every two days
and if I miss a 4pm show, then I can see it the next day at 1pm.

the majority of the US has B&B at 1:30 with Y&R at 12:30.

It comes on in PA at 12pm. Wish they would switch it back to 1pm. Liked it
when it came on at that time.

We get it at 1pm in Seattle. We've had it at 9am, 11am, 3pm, and 12pm
here in the past, however. They've switched it around a lot, but they
always informed the viewers like two weeks in advance. I liked it at
12pm best. You could go for Terriyaki on your lunch hour and they'd have
it on their little TVs at a lot of the local Terriyaki joints. That was
cool.

Sometimes couples would come in on their day off and watch it and the
girl would have to explain to the guy what was going on in the
commercial breaks. They guys *ALWAYS* knew that Sami was the bad girl,
though! They never forget even if they don't watch daily! They just look
at her and instantly they remember!!

Not here! We must be different? We've gotten Y&R right after Price is
Right at 11am for yeaaaaarrrrs, Dude. In Seattle we get Young and the
Restless at 11am and Bold and the Beautiful at 12:30. I just looked on
the Yahoo TV grid for Monday, just to be sure, since I don't watch CBS
soaps very often. I've met people from around the country who've always
been surprised that we get Y&R in the AM hours, however.

I don't think they're allowed to recommend an allotted time slot for
DOOL. Since I've been a kid, they've moved it around four times to four
different time slots in Seattle. They messed around with the time slot
for Santa Barbara about three times when it used to be on NBC here, too.
It's not just an NBC thing, either. General Hospital has skipped back
and forth between two different time slots here since I was a kid.

It's mostly because of local programming, talk shows, and early morning
game shows, it seems. We have two locally created and locally
broadcasted talk shows here that the networks have to work their way
around. One of them airs in WA state, British Columbia, and parts of
Northern California, so I guess their soap time slots are effected by
it, too.

That's why I added that other people from out of state whom I've met or
who've stayed at my house have always been surprised that we get Y&R at
11am here. It's got to be out of the ordinary or else they'd not be
surprised, right?

I just really wish Passions would go back to normal and Days would take the
3:30pm day-ahead slot in Toronto.

It is interesting though that in four different cities, in four different states, the lineup would be the same.

I just took a leap of faith so to speak because of the four areas I lived in all aired these shows at the time I mentioned.

Oh, my, what an amazing coincidence! Four different cities in four
different states. Oh, wow!

I wish it was on a little bit earlier, like 11 or 11.30. It comes on here at
1 and sometimes gets in the way of other things, but of course it can always
be taped...

I used to be able to catch DOOL at 9:00 am but when the Today show went to the
third hour, it got bumped to 1 pm. Now both NBC stations (Boston and Maine)
carry it at 1:00 pm. It's a good time, but if I had a choice, I'd like it to
air earlier so I can tape it and watch it at lunchtime.

1:00 p.m. here in southern California and I like it just peachy. I get
home from work and ff through the commercials and stuff that makes me
yawn. Takes about 20 mins. and the on to my nearly-only-other TV
watching of the day: NBC news. (JAG, LAPD Blue, Law and Order, The
Shield and The Sopranos, solamente. Are we seein' a pattern here?)

Sipowitz moved to Los Angeles? Say it isn't so

I'd rather watch it at noon, but since I moved from an area with a Tulsa


affiliate to a city with an Oklahoma City affiliate, I'm now stuck instead with
having Days on at 2, which isn't bad, but it's on the same time as a show I
used to watch, (GH) so I had to make a choice of which show to drop.

I'm not sure if this got posted or not already but here in Canada it's strange
because we get Canadian Days at 1PM and then "yesterday's" USA Days at 3:30.
Like leapfrog. Were it the other way around, it would be really great for
impatient people who want to see tomorrow's episode ~today~ ;)

Since I don't watch LAPD-B, how do you think our "Eve" is doing on there?

She's doing well, IMHO, although they have her romantically paired with
Sipowitz, which creeps me out altogether.
