YES, I SWITCHED TO DIRECT TV TO SEE MY FAVORITE SOAP. I’AM SORRY FOR SOME OF THE OTHER CAST, WHO’S NO LONGER. MAYBE THE CUT SHOULD HAVE STARTED WITH THE WRITERS, AND EDITORS. MORE TRAINING WITH YOUR CAST TEAM COULD HELP. SOMETIMES THE ORANGUTAN – PRECIOUS HADE MORE TRAINING THAN SOME CAST MEMBERS. (SMILE) NOW COME ALIVE AND START WITH BETTER SCRIPTS. MAYBE THE MISSING LINK IS HERE IN BESSEMER, AL -

nbc has really lost alot of viewers because taking passions off the air. Many people can’t afford to have direct t.v. You can’t even go on the computer to see different episodes or spoilers or anything else. Thank you for the one thing I enjoy watching everyday since day one.

i hate nbc or taking away passions we should make a poll who agrees with me to putting passions back the way it was could they really screwed up on doing that. no one will buy their crap just to watch passion i love that show put now i have missed it and thats all thanx to nbc they ruin everything i think they should have some respect to the people who watch it.

I am really upset about not being able to see Passions anymore. I have watched it from the first day it was on. I can’t get Direct TV and feel that I am being penalized for this. I do hope that it will be aired again at the same time and same channels. Three hours of the Today show is more than enough. In those three hours we get the news. opinions of the broadcasters, etc.
I am disabled and look forward every day to watching something other than the news. We have enough hours of the news, we need to have something to take our minds off some of the horrible things going on in the world. Passions has a little of everything. Romance, comedy {Tabitha and Endora} etc. I hope you will reconsider your decision.
Thank you.

What is wrong with NBC?? They act like they are doing us a favor by providing us shows to watch. If we all stopped watching NBC …would they still feel the same way? NBC is going down in popularity. They need to know they can’t mess with stay at home ladies and men. We control daytime ratings and don’t you forget it NBC! Not smart guys!

I think that is the dumbest move that has happened i am a stay at home mom and i watch passions everyday on nbc and on global on my regular cable and i am not moving to direct tv i like my cable services so one of the biggest fans will no longer be watching and i am very sad about that i hope there are alot of other people out there that feel the same way i do and i hope that maybe i will make a difference and bring one of the best soaps back to cable thanks for reading this and i hope it does make a difference

I am really sadden that passions has left NBC. So that we can see another boring episode of the today show. I will really miss passions. I have watch the show since it’s started in 1999. The cast is great and the show was refreshing to watch.please put it on the internet so I can continue to enjoy it. I will also miss the cast that is leaving. Maybe if they had changed the time slot on NBC it would have attracted more viewers

Download Utorrent at utorrent.com and search passions, you will be able to get most of the shows that way.

I watched Passions since it began right after my other favorite soap was cancelled Another World or whatever it was called. I’m so going to miss Passions, i thought it was so funny, and so unreal, not like the other soaps that are boring except for days of our lives…
I’m so dissappointed with NBC!! I’m am not also going to suscribe to Direct TV…

I will miss Passions. I have been watching it since I was in middle school, now that I am a stay at home mom of two kids, I had always looked foward to nap time, b/c thats when passions came on and I had mommy time. I will not be switching to DirectTV. I am very dissapointed in NBC for letting Passions go.

you people are amazing, you seek ratings, and destroy the very things that you could use to creat them. getting rid of passions was by far the most stupid thing you could have ever done.
i have dish network, and am very happy with it . it’s not that i could not afford to switch, i will not.
i got hooked on this show about five years ago, recorded it every day so i wouldn’t miss any episodes, now guess what, i won’t watch nbc ever again.

I’m also very disappointed that “Passions” has moved to Direct TV. I will not be a subscriber. I began watching from day 1 and never missed an episode. It truly is a creative show and I felt that it gave NBC an edge over daytime TV because of the diversity of the characters and the supernatural element to the theme of the show. I do hope it will air on line or YouTube or something. I’ll miss it for sure.

Me and my friends are all very upset that Passions is moving to DirectTV…Do you know how much it is per month to subscribe to DirectTV…$100.00/mo. in the WA. area. We are not going to join DirectTV just because NBC is making a huge mistake! These actors are wonderful, and they keep us amused and entertained. Not like some of the other Soaps out there that there’s killings, rapes, etc. We will miss Tabitha and her crew, especially Andora..she’s a huge asset to this show and very smart for as young as she is. You will all be dearly missed, and hope someone picks you all up on some other channel, as we will keep searching until we find all of you again. Lotz of love, and luck in your new adventure with DirectTV… actually, we hope NBC falls on their face…which they will!

Eight years of total committment and this is the appreciation I receive. Shame on you NBC! Would you think I’m even considering changing from Comcast to Directv? Not!

Silvana Arias (Paloma), Adrian Bellani (Miguel) and Mark Cameron Wystrach (Fox) are the three actors who will leave the show on September 7. James Stevenson (Jared) just left on July 23. Right now it is currently unknown that Charles Divins (Chad), Cathy Jeneen Doe (Simone), Brook Kerr (Whitney), Danica Stewart (Jessica) and Adrian Wilson (Chris) will continue with the soap.

I have watched Passions since day 1, obviously NBC isn’t listening to the viewers, perhaps they need a few new writers, but not canceling the show. I don’t think trying to force viewers to go to buy Direct TV is the answer either, I won’t get Direct TV to watch it, that is unbelievable.

i am very bumed that passions is leaving and ending sept. 7..i am a big fan of passions and its really upsetting cause all my favorite actors and actress is leaving the show ..or getting killed off…i love passions its one of my favorite soap..and i wish it stayied on NBC..cause i don’t have cable..looks like i will be missing it..the only way i can fine out whats going on is through the interent i just hope one day it will go back on nbc or other soap net so i can watch it. when i found out that passions is getting off air..i was all sick..cause i love that show..and i wish everyone could vote on if passions should stay or not..thats very unfair..and now its going on direcTV were some people can watch passions and some people can’t….well i will pray that it will be on a soap net with the rest of the soaps..and i agree with everyone elses comments on here well some but ..it is bullsh*t that there canceling passions on NBC and going on directTV….what i think is they should just continue on….its very interisting and i love it….i hope i ge some good news soon on passions..

I am totally bummed. Passions was the only soap I ever liked. I recorded it every day so that I could watch it when I got home from work.

I can’t afford Direct TV. Guess I’ll start watching a different channel. NBC always cancelled Passions for stupid things like tennis, golf, and other sports that nobody gives a damn about. Screw NBC. I don’t like the way they twist the news to form to their political views anyway, and since Passions is going away, so will NBC from my television set. I will watch FOX instead.

I have watched passions since the beginning…unfortunately i wasn;t able to watch it consistently, but i have now returned home from Europe in hopes to catch up on the series..however i have just recently found out that passions is moving to direct tv…hopefully Global tv won’t make the same mistake as nbc and holds on to the daytime soap…cause honestly even though i have been gone for a year i was so eager to watch Passions when i arrived…NBC definitely made a mistake…

NBC has made a deal with the devil in robbing Passions fans of the show and not even running episodes online.

Until NBC runs Passions online, I will no longer view anything on NBC.

Considering NBC is becoming all game shows and cheap programming, the network will continue to be easy to ignore, and your selling off good programming is facilitating abandoning you for us all.

Buh-bye.

I can’t believe I won’t be able to see passions anymore. direct tv sucks where i am at. I know a lot of people that really like this show and say there is know way they are switching to Dtv. I will miss passions.

Is there ANY way to view Passions once it turns to DirecTv, other than subscribing? Online, on ANY cable channel, anywhere?? I have written NBC and various other sources with NO response.. I am a disabled woman who relies on these little things to get me through VERY painful days.. and this is a burden that I just don’t need! Please send me an email if you know of any way to view the show.. I cannot subscribe to DTV where I am located at the moment, as the location does not allow the signal to catch.

I am not happy about 4 hours of the today show. Passions is a fun soap and takes the worries out of my life if only for an hour a day. I will probably find another soap to watch on another channel.NBC is going to lose a lot of people that liked Passions ..

By: Mark

Mark — Mon, 16 Jul 2007 22:40:40 +0000

No, they will not air Passions on GLobal TV anymore but they will air it on HD-TV CANADA, its a new t.v. network in Canada.

Too bad, I’d have to stop watch Passions because of the move. I’m disappointed Whitney will make it.

I will miss Passions. It’s the only soap that I liked. Its really different, then the rest. We don’t have direct t.v. so, I won’t get to see it. It makes me sad, that I’ll miss, the only show I truely loved. N.B.C. you suck. Please reconsider and bring it back.

I cant believe nbc is canceling passions. they obiously have no clue what their viewers want all over the internet hundreds of loyal fans are in an up roar I have spent the last few days looking over the pages of dissapointed fans this is truly sad that we all have been let down and if id does in-fact happen I among many others will NEVER watch the channel again!

Eventhough, those cast memebers were not signed, I would think they will probaly recast most of those roles

Will it still air on Global in Canada?

it seems that my fav characters on passions wont be joining with the move to directTV so i probably wont be interested in the show anymore, its a shame, i really did like that show…oh well…we all cant win…god i hate nbc!!! they dont think about the fans only thierselves and putting money in thier own pockets

I don’t intend to get directv just to see a soap and think most others will agree. It would be nice to see passions replays on soapnet
