Sorry guys and girls, now you have to break it to mom that Days Of Our Lives is no more.
With the SABC switching over to 90% local content from (around) July 1 – 80% on SABC 3 – certain shows were always going to fall by the wayside, but many are shocked that the longstanding soapie has got the chop.
Like sands through the hour glass bla bla, I’m not going to trot out that crummy old joke. Here’s Channel24 with more on SABC 3’s changes:
– The Bold And The Beautiful will continue to air in the weekday 18:00 slot.
– Expresso will run half an hour longer (from 2:30 to 3 hours) as of Monday 4 July.
– The Bold And The Beautiful repeat slot will change from weekdays at 09:00 to weekdays at 10:00 from Monday 4 July. A further Bold repeat slot will be added late nights at 01:00, weeknights from Monday 4 July (the previous repeat slot for The Real)
– Days Of Our Lives 9:30 morning repeat slot will no longer exist as of Monday 4 July. The 09:00 to 10:00 morning slots will be taken by repeats of local reality programming as of Monday 10 July…
Final episode of Days Of Our Lives on SABC3 – episode 12107 – on Wednesday 20 July.
Diarise that one for an emotional goodbye, although some peeps have already started on Twitter (HERE).
Quick throwback for no real reason at all – remember when Marlena became possessed?
More bad news on what else is getting the axe:
– No More American Reality series as of Monday 4 July, which means the next season of The Amazing Race won’t be airing. The Survivor finale will fortunately air on 27 June as previously scheduled, though.
– The Office season 2: the final episode we will see is episode 20 on 27 June. We will not see the double-episode season finale.
– Whitney season 1 ends on Monday 20 June with episode 11 of 22. We will not see the rest of the season.
– Numb3rs season 4 will end on Thursday 30 June with episode 15 of 18. We will not see the rest of the season.
– The final episode of Minute To Win it airs on Friday 1 July.
– Brooklyn Nine-Nine season 1 will end on Friday 1 July with episode 14 of 22. We will not see the rest of the season.
– The Exes season 3 will end on Friday 1 July with episode 14 of 20. We will not see the rest of the season.
A word of advice – I think it’s time y’all learnt how to use the internet, you can watch what you want when you want and Hlaudi can’t stop you.
