[Manny]

Will the ratings be delayed until tomorrow? Was there a holiday on Monday in US?

[Scotty]

Yes, Monday was Presidents' Day.

[Lskreet]

For future reference anytime there is a holiday whether it be President's Day, Columbus Day, Christmas, NYE the ratings will aways be posted a day late.

[SteveFrame]

I am always excited to see the ratings, but this week I really am. I really want to see GH's rating. I am just so hoping they overtake B&B for one week during February, but if they don't at least they have had great ratings.

Last Friday, 4 shows had exciting cliffhangers but esp. GH and GL. I am just anxious to see what their Friday ratings were. CBS highly promoted that it would be a murderous week on their shows so everyone should have known something was coming. Most of the other shows had their big things before Friday and GL was the only one left. And they didn't disappoint with the shooting of Alan at the end. I just hope they got at least a good rating on Friday, but since some didn't see it until Monday morning who knows.

[KMan101]

I'm anxious for the ratings, too.

[Darcy]

I wouldn't be surprised to see high ratings for Wednesday's shows due to the bad weather in the Northeast.

[dtchicago]

Another good week, although I would have liked to see GH hop over BB. Its nice to see most soaps doing well this sweeps. What happened on Tuesday? Was that the day the snow storm went through?? Most soaps had abnormally high ratings.

[SteveFrame]

Wow ATWT got a 3.0 for Tuesday. WTG

Another 4.8 for Y&R and another week at 4.6. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And look at those numbers for GL - so glad they rose even if Friday wasn't that great but they beat their normal 2.2

And Passions even got a 2.0 - Great for them

And WTG for GH - on up to 3.2. Great job. And their best day was not even the day of the explosion.

Great job. So glad for them.

[nassaunew]

Whoa. Guiding Light almost surprassed DOOL.

[Steviekatt]

I am glad to see that the ABC soaps are finally rising. They have been better of late.

[SteveFrame]

It could have been for some, but I thought the biggest day of snow was Wednesday.

Forgot to say congrats to AMC too. All the way up to 2.8.

Although they still have some technical problems, the stories have been so good lately. And very entertaining. And the ratings are showing for it. They have been steadily coming back up since January.

[Steveo4]

I just dont understand what DAYS is thinking right now. It is BOOORING. I watched more consistently thatn I had in years from mid December through early February, but I haven't watched at all in the last two weeks...and apparently I'm not the only one...

[Lskreet]

A majority of the soaps had higher numbers on Tuesday. I live on the west coast but I'm guessing the big storm in the east was on Tuesday.
