Happy Thursday everyone!

Hopefully you are staying cool where you are. We might hit 100 today in my nifty corner of the country. It is already heating up, yuck!

Very sadly, this news came out that one of the longest running soap operas of all time, Days of Our Lives, is moving to Peacock:

I know a lot of us felt like it was the end of an era for Miss America and believe me, it was. But other beloved TV institutions like soap operas are being dumped as well. They're just going to streaming services quietly to die. I have seen some commentary from longtime viewers who might not get Peacock, this is an older show with likely viewers in their 60s and beyond who really do not do streaming services.

Is this another sign of the times that some of our past TV icons are just going to streaming to die a slow death? I watched Days from the time I was around 10 until that nonsense with Marlena being demon possessed. LOL I wondered where the hell my mind was and I couldn't do it anymore.

But to me, this is a very sad state of affairs. Peacock is rather boring. Their original programming is not like Netflix or Hulu where it brings new viewers in.
