So OLTL is still at 2.6?

Did Y&R hit an all time ratings low, so no report? I watched this week for Sheila and Lauren but quit taping it weeks ago because it takes too long to watch/ff on the weekends and the prime time shows are actually good this season. Is it my imagination that there are more good prime time shows than in years past, or have soaps just gotten so bad that crap tv in prime time looks better?

I guess men like traditional soaps

[sheilaforever]

It seems so and I fit right into this demo...

Wow, Days is still dropping! I am not totally surprise as there are fans out there who arent buying these new storylines!

Thanks

[Hartless]

Wow congrats to Y&R and GL! GL must have had a good pay off with the babyswitch.

Tuesday's ATWT HH number has to be a typo. Doesn't mesh with the other Tuesday dailies: AMC, DAYS, OLTL and, even GH. Number of viewers seems way higher than what at 2.3 would bring.

[dawn9476]

Wow. That is a big gain for GL. I wonder if they will be able to hold it because they didn't back in September when they had a big gain.

[Adam]

AMC dropped off but I am not surprised. I think though this past week with the dragon being slayed and the huge Di reveal that the ratings may go up a bit. I can hope anyway.

[ksale]

Ha! I knew Days storylines weren't cutting it. None of the SL's are interesting to say the least.

[Ally]

Yaaaa! Go Passions... these past few weeks have been rocking!

Hopefully it will go back into the 2's again soon.

Thanks guys!

Hooray for CBS!!!!!

That's because in the 2.3 households for ATWT, more people were watching per household than the other shows you mentioned. So, while the same number of homes may have tuned into the shows, one home had more viewers than the other. That's why AMC has a higher household rating than GL despite GL averaging more viewers.

Good job CBS! I'm pleasantly surprised at GL. I hope this was due to the 'babyswitch' or the Lewis' drama and not the 'romping cousins.' I'm sure they'll credit them anyway.

Hmmmm......I'm probably way off base here but maybe, just maybe, I'm not the only FAN of AMC (and yes I am a FAN even though I think it's awful) that is sick to death of the McTavish/Frons AMC vision.

But hey that loss of over 400,000 viewers is probably just a typo because who doesn't love a TV program treating them like they have the intelligence of a first grader?
