Looks like it was a great week for soaps, well except DAYS and PASS.

Damn what happened on Y&R? LoL.

Poor Days

That's such a bummer!

Shocked about DAYS.

But even more shocked about B&B. GIVE ME A FRIGGIN' BREAK!!!!!!!!!!

Okay, I know with Laura returning and all that might have boosted the ratings for GH, but how in the world is Days in fifth place?

Shocked about DAYS.

But even more shocked about B&B. GIVE ME A FRIGGIN' BREAK!!!!!!!!!!

B&B was actually pretty good last week, much better than some weeks

I thought B&B was good last week too. And the last 2 days have been pretty good. Loved the Stephanie & Jackie fight yesterday.

Glad ATWT rose.

Y&R was pretty good last week too. Glad the ratings showed it.

As someone else said pretty good week for soaps overall. Will be anxious to see how the viewers look and all.

Looks like ABC's gimmicks are going to work again and Laura hadn't even returned yet. I refuse to tune into any ABC soaps until things are changed. I wish people weren't so easy to jump on sweeps stunts because that is what makes ABC keep doing them.

As for B&B, it was ok last week but not that good. How Y&R is going up is beyond me. I can see little bumps and staying the same but the show bores me to tears even with the Carmen murder stuff.

I had a feeling Days would drop but .2 is ridiculous and shocking. I knew no one would care about Shawn/Willow but I thought at least a 2.5. Days does not deserve to be that low but in time Days will get the ratings it deserves.

ATWT going up is a plus though although after the crappy tribute to Benjamin I don't think I want them to go up for this past week because that was an awful way to honor him.

YAY for the ATWT rise.

DAYS should be above OLTL and AMC; currently, it's better than those two piece of crap-

AMC's ratings are atrocious

Shocked about DAYS.

But even more shocked about B&B. GIVE ME A FRIGGIN' BREAK!!!!!!!!!!

How true!! B&B has turned into a horrible show!! Hopefully this Taylor fiasco will be over soon and she'll return to the backburner from whence she came. HT is just not a strong enough actress to carry a major story on her own.

Thats too bad about DAYS, they truly deserve higher ratings...what a bummer especially after how well they did last week.

Hopefully next week we get the same kind of rebound, because these numbers just sucks.

At least they are still holding on to #1 in 18-34!

An entire week without Jack Wagner and the ratings go up!
