Soap opera spoilers tease angry fans are making their voices heard on social media, as the impeachment trial hearings continue to preempt many of our beloved soaps.
General Hospital (GH), which airs on ABC, posted a statement on its Twitter feed yesterday. The Soap has been preempted since Tuesday.
“We know you’re ready for new episodes of #GH… Stay tuned for updates and thanks again for your patience.” Rumor has it, ABC plans to preempt the soap throughout the impeachment hearings. This could mean no GH for two weeks and fans were quick to express their dismay.

And it looks like the network will continue to air episodes online. “Today’s original episode may be interrupted,” Y&R tweeted today. “You can watch it on cbs.com or CBS All Access later today.”
