CBS Ratings Report

[King]

It looks like DAYS had a good week. Yay!

[R!ck]

Based on last weeks report, ABC nosed up in demos and CBS jumped in viewers, while NBC stayed the same in both.

18-49

ABC - 1.7/11 (+.1)

NBC - 1.6/10 (same)

CBS - 1.4/9 (same)

Viewers

CBS - 4.2 million (+100,000)

ABC - 3.1 million (same)

NBC - 2.6 million (same)

[King]

Ah, crap. Nevermind.

[R!ck]

Mike, with PSNS dropping -.2 in 18-49 and -.1 in 18-34 it's possible that it also fell .2 in HH giving DAYS a 2.7

[King]

Oh, true!

[Manny]

DAYS sooooo had a good week! Passions had a bad week and that's why NBC ratings stayed the same!

[allatwitter]

day to day ratings for OLTL

Friday 2.5

*copied from abc mb*

[KBT]

Wow, OLTL gained +2 in the 18-49 demos with a 12 share with DAYS, while GH and AMC only had an 11 share. So it looks at least in demos OLTL had a good week, cant wait to see the overall numbers.

I hope PSNS falls a lot, its awful. So I am hoping DAYS gets back to a 2.6, possibly(but doubtful a 2.7)

Glad to see DAYS be so dominant in the 18-34 demo, .6 away from #2 PSNS. Other soaps have to be right behind PSNS though in that demo.

Thanks again Toups!

That comes out to a 2.64.....

[Manny]

Can't wait for HH!! C'mon CBS!!

[Adam]

AMC jumped .2 in demos. By the looks though total viewers and HH probably stayed near the same if ABC's numbers were unchanged. Unless OLTL or GH lost some and AMC gained. Oh well anxious to see the whole story. AMC has been picking up.....

[KevC1980]

will Days has the jack and jennifer fans to thank for last weeks ratings.. they were primarily featured that week..4 days..

[Manny]

Is there a site that publishes the ratings or Toups gets the ratings from one of his sources?

[FanSoAp07]

Good question, Manny

[Soapsuds]

He has his sources. He has said that a couple of times already.
