[QUOTE="Carrie Fairchild, post: 154404, member: 673"] I'm not completely au fait with the ins and outs of who owns / owned the rights to the NBC soaps but in my lifetime at least, they appear to be the most widely seen worldwide behind B&B and Y&R. [I]Sunset Beach, Santa Barbara, Days of Our Lives[/I] and [I]Another World[/I] all aired extensively in Europe, Asia and Australia while the ABC soaps didn't get much of a look in. So you would presume it would've been in NBC's interest to invest in their shows given the fact that they were making money from overseas sales (much in the same way that [I]Home and Away[/I] & [I]Neighbours[/I] are being propped up in Australia by their success in the UK).
