I would not call it a bust Y&R's ratings were good for most of that week it was one day that dragged down the ratings and I think that was Friday which was the day most soaps were not on. I think we will get a better picture of how these storylines are working this time next week when the ratings for this week come out.

And I agree I am not happy that ATWT's ratings went up and you are also right I think when the final total viewers numbers come out that ATWT will be in 7th not 5th. and it serves JP and CG right, with the trash that they give us everyday.

I didn't dare to guess except to think that GH would be +1 over Days. Also, I was hoping Days actually would get a 3.0 for Tuesday's show. Being the day after Christmas may have caused some missed viewers.

Seeing the comparison of 2000 to 2006 was disheartening and sad. I think soaps definitely have a place on daytime and would hope they would have a stronger rating. These ratings don't include TiVo'd, recorded or on-line viewing do they. I think the figures aren't accurate of the actual viewership.

Jean, the way I understand they just include a small sample from them.

BTW we haven't discussed this in a long time, but when was the date on when the Nielsens would start using college campuses in the ratings. I was thinking it had already started with this season but it may have been later. If it has started they sure haven't helped the ratings so far.

I think it is, and several on here at SON are talking highly of it too. I think I read Cheap say that it is the only soap she is even enjoying at the moment.

To me even the mob stuff right now is tolerable. I actually even enjoyed Sonny one day this week.

The story I am most interested in is Lulu's search for who killed Rick Webber. It is interesting to me, and has an inkling of a chance to include some vets for a little while at least.

The other story I like of course is Alexis's cancer. And then with that is her fight with Ric over custody and the divorce. Both Hearst and Grahn are doing a great job.

And can't wait to see Scotty.

    • -- I love a good build, and the show has made me look forward to Winterfest. But some things seem so forced.  -- For example, the Vernon/Sharon meetups. GMAB. It's so obvious what this is and they're playing it too hard for too long.  I think one purpose is to make Leslie look like a fool, but it's hard to take. Is the tour over for Sharon? Does she sit in the hotel room all day long waiting for Vernon? Is he paying her bills? It's dumb.  -- Leslie is an awful human. I don't think she gives a rat's ass about Peaches. She cares more about Eva's sex life.  -- Izaiah and Eva have nice chemistry, but their conversation seemed forced to me. Didn't sound like first date dialogue and was too on the nose.  -- Shanice was great in taking down Leslie. I'm so glad the writing didn't have Leslie land the biggest smackdown. Dr. Wilkes was also great.  -- Again, Leslie is spending like she's worth a bajillion dollars. This has to be written for laughs.  -- I've done a complete turnaround on June. I now think she's a great addition.  -- Martin and Smitty are so concerned that Tyrell learn about Banneker that they call in a guy who started work there this week?

        -- Tyrell is so much more mature than Samantha. I hate the way she treats him and talks about him in front of others.  She really sat there and asked Jessica why she's even with Tyrell. Samantha is pathetic.    Screenshot time: -- If I can get Fish & Fries at Orphey Gene's for $5, why is a glass of juice $4 ? -- That Mr & Mr sign at Martin and Smitty's is beyond lame and tacky.   
    • So do I. Jack actually treats her like an equal partner. And he’s done far less evil things Nikki has just to ignore including to his own kids than Victor any day.
    • This 11/17 episode was extremely lazy and boring. That Adam and Chelsea opening scene was so cringe and out of character for both.  Billy Flynn is being wasted and I was only interested in Claire and Holden.    Every character feels the same with no actual personality.   
    • Ugh...right? At least if Chris Bernau had been able to continue in the role, it would've been intriguing to watch Alan manipulate Reva.
    • Yes, it was. Dinah had started to soften after Henry's heart attack in March. After Paige Turco took over the role, the attitude is turned way, way down. The thing about Vanessa was, she could be very territorial. If Dinah had gone to Lillian (who had befriended Dinah before she knew Vanessa was her mother), that would've stung a bit, but Van probably would've understood. But Dinah getting advice from Ross' new girlfriend would not have sat well with her, the same way Van later bristles anytime Nadine tries to stake some kind of role in Bill's life. @DeeVee  I know it's been brought up before, but I hadn't really connected Long breaking up Ross/Van to the fact that she'd neither created that backstory or been responsible for giving them a love child.  I wonder what she would've done had she been there when Jordan left, and had to break Billy/Van up.
    • Yes it was The Young and the Restless.
    • I would love for Rick and Amber to come back and Amber to be involved with Deke somehow

        The show does look great though! 
    • Well, she just said "ladies" on the show but she didn't specify they were fellow actresses. It could have been some of the women behind the scenes of the show. There was a lot in the interview that wasn't clear to me.
    • Now would’ve been a great time to get the next A plot going, versus Bill and Katie and Steffy and Liam rehashing the same BS about Luna we have been hearing for weeks. 
    • I feel it could benefit from a focus on one of their three A stories or a solid B plot. But right before the turnover from Guza to Thomson, outside of all things Dani...there's nothing too A story-ish going on. Still entertaining for me, but it's noticeable that there is not a main story with other B/C stories going on. It's just...a bunch of stories going on.    I do hope the build to Winterfest and us actually seeing it THIS month will get things moving again.    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
