Last week was the most fantastic week in so many YEARS on Days....I am hoping for a rise, even if it is very small....

[sintell]

Critical Time for ATWT, and GL. Renewing contracts with CBS in July...but contemplating now!!

[usetobeasoapfan]

Well the numbers should be interesting last week and this week, due to the shows being interrupted with news (fires/shooting and misc.) stories. I'm sure the networks will have no problem spinning this appropriately

I expect a major drop!

[Cat]

Yeah, the fires in SoCal alone will have noticeably hit the ratings.

[jcar03]

What day did the fires start? The article I found says October 21st: http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=206...Lk&refer=us. I can't remember what day I started hearing about them but it seems longer then just Sunday. But if it was October 21st that wouldn't of affected last weeks ratings.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

There were two preemptions last week in the NYC tri-state area market, I believe. That should factor heavily in the ratings for this week, since that's the biggest televison market in the country.

I believe there might have been other preemptions in smaller markets too last week.

Count me in for lower overall ratings this week...

I wonder if the ratings will be delayed because of the pre-emptions. I don't know if the ratings will be affected too much because of the fires. There weren't any interuptions in my area.

I'm mixed up on my dates. The fires probably just affected Friday. I'm sure next weeks numbers will be influenced even more due to the length of this unfortunate event!

[jcar03]

I don't think they would be delayed due to pre-emptions.

[Benjiapollo]

The ratings would be for last week, the fires started this week. And in california they are showing YR late at night,

Actually, I think no decisions will be made till Spring. The new/cheaper "digicam" format will start in January. I think CBS will see how it does, and then make some decisions.

So, I think the P&G ratings can basically do what they want between now and January.

However, if Nuke can continue to trend ATWT ratings up, that wouldn't be a bad thing.

I believe Nuke going to need help to get the show going in a positive direction. Nuke can't do it by themselves.

TPTB at CBS/ATWT have to ask themselves when they came up with these lame stories ideas - have we seen this a million times before? can we do it different/better than it was before? Stories like Meg getting pregnant are not only boring and done to death, but it's even more asinine than the previous million times we've seen it. Such a waste of everyone involved in that story. CarKack also is going in a merry-go-round we've seen before. They need have an "original idea" contest or something instead of Daytime Dollars. They need help.

Not only has it been done before, but it's a total slap in the face for the viewers who watched the original history play out. Meg should never be able to have children. That was a good story when it was originally done, now they're rewriting it for the sake of a half-assed plot story. It's ridiculous. Paul's got miracle sperm...UGH.

They bring back Cady and waste her with this asinine story.

Interesting to see if the CBS soaps gets a bump or not.......

Modest ‘Price’ Bump for Drew Carey

And the actual retail value of changing your morning game show host is …

About a 10 percent ratings bump.

Drew Carey’s debut week hosting CBS’ classic game show “The Price Is Right” resulted in slightly better numbers than last year with Bob Barker at the microphone.

“Price” averaged 5.4 million viewers for the week of Oct. 15-21, matching the “Price” average from Oct. 16-22 in 2006. Among adults 18 to 49, Carey garnered a modest bump—up 10 percent to a 1.1. For daytime shows, networks typically target women 25 to 54, which also saw a slight increase for Carey—up 7 percent to a 1.6 rating.

Because of the host changing of the guard, “Price” started about a month late this season. If Carey’s first week in October is compared to Barker’s first week in September '06, there are still gains for Carey—up 7 percent among women 25 to 54, 8 percent among total viewers and 22 percent among adults 18 to 49.

[jcar03]

Maybe people tuned into to see Carey but will they stay is a better question.

Maybe people tuned into to see Carey but will they stay is a better question.

In most markets, "Price Is Right" airs 11am EST with Y&R at 12:30, B&B at 1:30, ATWT 2 and GL 3. But in some of the biggest market, GL airs 9 or 10am right before "Price Is Right" or B&B airs 11am with "Price Is Right" leading into the show. IMO I think ATWT will be least impacted from "Price" surging ratings due to their time slots.

Thanks for info about GL ATWT...saw the new format ideas...sounds like a lot of money being saved and no cast being cut!
Great!!!!

[KevC1980]

Well the fires shouldn't affect last weeks numbers..that will affect this weeks...I'm really hoping John's death gives Days a big bump..
