I know they probably did not want to bother with moving the website around and I understand that because NBC universal still owned and produced the series after taking it off their own NBC network and sold the broadcasting rights of the newer episodes to DirecTV, they decided to just leave it alone.
I also do not understand why NBC universal left the official website on NBC.com with updating details of the series and promotional products when the series had left NBC and moved to DirecTV.
In addition, NBC could have saved themselves a lot of time from shopping for other networks to pick up the series and could have been spending their time to create other shows that will boost more ratings and money. That way all of the Passions would have a happy ending and then just move on. Now for the fans who switched to DirecTV just for Passions got all upset that it was canceled so soon.Īnd now for many fans who could no longer see the series have no idea what really happened on the series final season and leaving them in a cliffhanger. Guess what? The show lost a lot of audiences and DirecTV did not get expected subscribers they wanted for the series and canceled it within a year. This made a lot of fans really upset because many were not going to be that stupid to pay money for a TV subscription company just for a soap opera. Then DirecTV picked up the series and made it exclusive for their own network and tried to get the passions fans to get DirecTV to continue watching the series. This is all because the ratings were low. They were not even making that much money on it when they were broadcasting it their own NBC network television.
Guess what? None of them wanted the series because of the low ratings.Įven if another broadcast television network or cable network bought the rights, NBC universal would not have been able to make that much more money anyway. I personally think if NBC was going to cancel it, they should have just left it canceled, so that way all of the fans that were able to view it for free on broadcast television could have had closure and see a very great farewell.īut, instead NBC universal had to shop for other networks, especially cable networks to have them pick them up, so they can still make money. It was a really great show and attracted a lot of younger audiences and was on NBC for 8 years from 1999-2007, but canceled it in 2007 due to low ratings, but then DirecTV picked up the rights to the series, but lasted only a year on their own network. Does anyone remember Passions the soap opera that was on NBC many years ago?
