I made this thread because I don't have SoapNet. God knows that I really really REALLY want the channel, but my potheaded cable company wants to air 6 Discovery channels and not one SoapNet.......

It's like you read my mind, LOL, I get SoapNet, and I wish they would add more classic stuff. I think most of what you listed is a possibility, but sadly, I doubt they would ever air MH and Soap, It would be cool if they would... God knows that network needs new programming, I'm getting tired of the same ole schedule, lol.
