The recent news about Hollyoaks has left fans feeling devastated. The popular Channel 4 soap was officially removed from the TV schedule, causing an uproar among viewers. In February, it was announced that the show would be reducing its weekly episodes from five to three, and now the changes have finally taken effect. For the first time in years, Thursday marks the day without a daily visit to the fictional village, and fans are struggling to adjust to the new schedule.
On social media, fans expressed their disappointment and sadness over the absence of their favorite show. One Twitter user, Ali, wrote, "The first Thursday without #Hollyoaks on E4 at 7pm. What is everyone going to watch instead?" Another user shared their routine of watching the show every night while eating and how strange it feels not to have it on Thursdays anymore. It seems like many fans are finding it hard to get used to the changes, with some even joking about turning to watch Hollyoaks on days when it's not airing.
The show's recent three-episode-a-week pattern was introduced with a bang, as a brutal stunt week saw the lives of several characters hanging in the balance. As fans try to cope with the reduced episodes, they also had to deal with the shocking death of James Nightingale, one of the show's most beloved characters. Actor Greg confirmed that his character was axed by the show's bosses, causing outrage among fans. James had been looking forward to living his life to the fullest before his tragic demise in a car explosion.
But James wasn't the only character to be written off the show. As part of the reduction in episodes, a number of high-profile cast members were also axed, causing more upset among fans. In addition to James' death, characters like Cindy Cunningham and Tom Cunningham were also written out amid a controversial storyline. And it seems there's more heartache to come as two beloved characters, Charlie Dean and Ethan Williams, are also set to exit the show.
To mark the new era of Hollyoaks, next week's episodes will take a time-jump one year into the future, leaving fans with many questions about their favorite characters' whereabouts. Despite the changes, the show will continue to stream on Channel 4's platform on Mondays to Wednesdays at 7am, or you can catch it on E4 at 7pm.
