ABC14 , your ABC-Network Affiliate for Guam and Saipan, is pleased to announce that effective Monday, May 8 th 2006, ABC14 becomes the first Guam Broadcaster to offer same day "SOAPS", as well as, other same day daytime and late night programming.
Guam's most popular weekday "SOAPS"; ALL MY CHILDREN (12:PM); ONE LIFE TO LIVE (1:PM); and GENERAL HOSPITAL (2:PM) are now shown same day time delay basis only, not the normal one week delay as has been the case in the past. Mainland Friday shows are aired on Guam on the following Monday.
ABC14 is able to do this according to "Ed" Davis General Manager of ABC14 as a "result of our investment in state of the art video compression equipment and the leasing of a direct video broadband circuit from the mainland USA from GTA."
Other ABC Network programming now broadcast on a same day basis include morning staples "Good Morning America" and the "View"; as well as late night favorite "Jimmy Kimmel Live".
Primetime programming is still shown on a 1 week delayed basis to allow proper "in pattern" play of the shows, i.e. Sunday shows on Sunday, etc.
Other ABC Network programs currently being aired either live or on a same day delayed basis by ABC14 includes ABC Sports, Nightline, World News Now, and World News Tonight.
This increase in the number of programs being aired on a same day basis is a further indication of ABC14's continuing commitment to our viewers to improve their ABC14 television experience!
