I’m sorry, hypothetical person who reads UPROXX and watches SOAPnet for anything other than Veronica Mars and Gilmore Girls repeats: your home for all things yogurt commercials will soon be no more. According to the Los Angeles Times, “Walt Disney Co. will pull the plug on the cable channel it created 14 years ago to squeeze extra life from its popular daytime dramas…to make space for Disney Junior, a channel for toddlers.”
Once again, babies have led to the downfall of women(‘s programming). Few will mourn SOAPnet’s passing, though, especially around these parts, where All My Children is less the name of a television program than it is, “Time to pay child support already?” What other channels could go to the Great PlayCable in the Sky without anyone noticing?
