Re: The Soaps During Lockdown

Words cannot describe how I feel about it this:

https://news.sky.com/story/coronavir...sodes-11982688

How sad and pathetic that the only thing they can find to replace coronation street when they have run out of new episodes is old episodes. When we have discussed soaps and terrestrial tv in the past I have questioned the lack of quality US programming and how much we are missing out on. I can rattle off tonnes of old series they could put on in place of Coronation Street. Why not do X-Files from the start or Heroes or Lost? If it is a questions of the demographic put Grey's Anatomy on, there are 16 full seasons so even if you put an episode on a day like Coronation Street you still got enough to keep you going several months until they can resume filming. It does my head in and it is like they have got tunnel vision for shit. If anything was going to give them a kick up the ass and make them think outside the box and broaden their horizons this would be but all they are doing is stooping to a new low.
