In the ongoing saga on what BBC America is doing with Hollyoaks:
According to the schedule on their official website, on September 4 they are going to be starting over with the first episodes they aired.
The last 'new' episode before they start over will be Episode 65, on September 1.
And yes, it's still on 3am.

What A Freaking Mess
Just posted about this in under the Save Hollyoaks bit a second ago...I'm sure they'll use this re-start as an excuse to cancel it..."Oh we thought that since you fans were doing such a good job getting people interested we'd re-start it and then the ratings fell so we were forced to cancel it..." kind of crap they love to spew over there. Hated that when the Best Gay Week Ever guy wrote to them they were condescending enough to just send him the same form letter they sent all of us...BBCA has continually screwed me over from the moment I upgraded to see episodes of EastEnders that were newer than the ones on local public tv...I assume they just bought 65 episodes and that's it. I've tried writing various places and gotten nowhere but I guess it's time to hit everyone else up one more time...my fave response was from Soap Opera Weekly telling me that they can't cover or mention Hollyoaks as BBCA isn't carried in all homes in America...so are they gonna drop Passions coverage in a few weeks when it flips to DirecTV? Hmmmm?
Sucks, the show has become my fave tv destination, dispite the 2 am cst showings! I actually have found it's the perfect breakfeast show! LOVE it being there every morning (or on Friday's after I come in from downtown! LOL!)
