Fans Upset Over No New Episode
Fans were very upset over no new episode and went to Twitter to share their thoughts.
Ugh! Of freaking course Hate preemptions
Airing in Canada! Here comes Lois! #GH
This has been happening for too many years. Yall need soapnet back.
You’ve Already Delayed Multiple ep’ . . .but I hate to break it to You the president addressing the press Is Not a national holiday
Really. You think tomorrow’s news will be any different? 1 hour is not going to make a difference
WHAT IS IT with the GH hour that everyone has to break in for every little thing?? I would bet GH get preempted more than any other show day or night, bar none.
And you intentionally choose an episode of Nina vs. Michael / Willow.
i wish abc would just air it online and early morning for reg tv i watch all my tv shows online thru my att log in
Special Report Breaks In
At 1:22 p.m. President Biden broke in about what was going on with the Israeli War. This is what was airing instead of General Hospital. It seems to be the only show that was affected today so far at least. Daily Blast Live airs after GH and it is unknown if it will run into it or not.
