I saw these on another board:

1. The Young and the Restless 4.4 (+.1)

2. The Bold & the Beautiful 3.1 (+.1)

3. General Hospital 2.9 (-.2)

4. All My Children 2.6 (-.1)

5. One Life to Live 2.5 (same)

6. As the World Turns 2.4 (same)

7. Days of Our Lives 2.3 (-.1)

8. Guiding Light 2.2 (+.1)

9. Passions 1.4 (-.1)

------------------------------------

Personally I think that DAYS and ATWT deserve their low ratings. DAYS is just plain boring the stories aren't fresh, the characters on the frontburner are boring, etc. I still would dump Patch/Kayla & Willow, bring back Jack/nuJennifer and some of the more interesting characters from the past. I'd take Hogan's worst ATWT stories over what we get at DAYS.

As for ATWT, the show is just too heavily focused on the teens. Even the top rated shows can't depend on a teen set. GH may not use their older vets, but they use people in their 20s, 30s and early 40s. On ATWT the show is centered around teenagers and pre-teens. It's absolutely ridiculous and I can't understand what they are thinking.

You are NEVER going to be able to center a soap around teens and get a large enough audience. There has to be a change at ATWT or they will have major problems. Now they have two MORE young characters joining the cast. It's ridiculous. I hope they continue to drop.

Glad to see Y&R perked up, but I had hoped GH come continue to dominate against B&B.

I do feel bad for Days though. I think the show is well written but I do think they are making a mistake not focusing more on Bo/Hope and John/Marlena. The Shawn/Belle storyline holds no interest for me. I was watching the show for a while but I have lost interest in it again.

If DAYS was "outstanding" and getting ratings like this, the show really *would* be screwed. IMO, it was painfully boring last week and these numbers are not surprising in the least. I can accept that Hogan is building these stories based on a long-term plan but that approach only works if you give viewers something to keep them interested on a week-to-week basis. I think it's basic business sense to have at least one story nearing a climax/big twist during Sweeps. The LUMI/EJ plot could and should have been that story since it's been building for months. It's puzzling to me that Hogan seems determined to drag it out until May Sweeps. Why not have the wedding this past month? I don't dispute that the day-to-day characterisation and dialogue is good but if everything on the show is filler material, ratings like these are inevitable.

The lack of balance doesn't help, either. I don't accept the argument that the "big four" are ratings grabbers but even those who aren't fans of John/Marlena/Bo/Hope are tired of seeing the same faces (most of them newbies) day in and day out.

Hogan's characterizations may be good, but his stories are terrible This was a problem he had on ATWT as well. On DAYS I don't see him building or beginning stories, just a bunch of really awful stories that won't be interesting ever.

I've never seen someone whose stories are just so boring and uneventful during the developmental stages. The beginning of a storyline should be the hook and the best part.

I disagree completely... DAYS has been very far from outstanding. Very far. How can such unbalance, boring drivel be called outstanding? If Hogan was not writing this people would be slamming the writer for introducing new characters, making them instant front burner characters and some instant heroes. And balance going out the window. Corny tarot cards? Screaming actors (over and over again), a good bad guy that has just become ANNOYING?

The Nick and Chelsea show is NOT working. Point blank. DAYS is getting ratings that it deserves. It is sad, very sad that DAYS is approaching lower and lower territories. (What is DAYS lowest rating anyways?) And the demos aren't working either. What will it take for this show to just stick with the good stuff and deliver??

That sucks considering all they have been featuring heavily are 20 somethings. And rank number 7?!!! OMG!! That is ATROCIOUS.

DAYS tied all time low being 2.3, I believe... I don't think they've ever hit 2.2.. But they definitely did hit 2.3 last year, so..

I also believe that this is a new all time low for PASS...

I have to agree that DAYS is not good and I wouldn't be surprised if they hit 2.2 next week... I am sad because of it though, because DAYS is my all time fav soap and I hate to see what's happening, considering how much hope I've had when Hogan was coming... ahhhh... the times when I though DAYS would be fighting with B&B for #2... well, those times are over... :(

WAKE UP, CORDAY & SHEFFER!!!

This is getting beyond ridiculous. Hogan, WAKE UP and write the damn show! I KNOW you can do better than this! I hate to admit it, but even I'm starting to get bored. I still enjoy the show, but damn, we need MOVEMENT already! Every day we're seeing practically the same scenes over and over again with Sami/Lucas/E.J. and Nick/Chelsea. It's time to step it up! This 2.3 HAS to be a wake up call!

    • Yeah, I was fickle. I abandoned baby watch & just tried to think of really well matched pairings. Yeah, they sent Carter & Thomasina away far too soon for my way of looking at things.  I REALLY liked them & they were rare being both young & African Americans. 
    • My watching in that time period was sketchy.  After high school, I didn't have a TV.  I would watch in the dormitory common room  my first year away from home, but then after that I lived in a rental with housemates who didn't want TV.  I think I caught up on the soaps during school(univ) vacations, when visiting my sister's house.  And then many many years later on soapnet?  Not sure. I had no idea that Jeff ever tried suicide. Reading just now is the first I ever heard of that. Interesting. I will agree that Monica wanted Jeff out of the way so she could be with Rick, but she would have wanted him gone emotionally.  But I don't remember watching Jeff having any medical issues, so I don't know if she would have wanted him dead.
    • Didn't he have a nightmare last week?
    • Nothing about Joss ever works. I can't blame them for trying a completely fresh approach for her, but she needs to be written out. 
    • Thanks @Paul Raven  Some of this sounds strong but it's all so heavy and some elements, like with Felicia and Charles, almost veer on parody. L&L seemed to always be a heavy show - did they ever even have comic relief moments? - but I do wonder if it all became too much for viewers.
    • It's a joke. If there's a way to put Joss into a WSB spy story that works, I haven't seen it. What they're doing is just ridiculous. Imagine trusting a huge operation to someone who "finished training" a month ago. I think they're trying to make this work by having a college-age agent be a part of the professor's class, etc. It might look acceptable on paper, but it doesn't work when you see it.
    • Monday, after the party, Leslie showed up at the Duprees. Martin was with everyone as they listened to her for a bit. Then Martin said he was needed at home.  Anita and Vernon knew he was upset and they were concerned. Vernon asked "Do you need Titus, or are you okay to drive?"  Martin said he was okay and left to drive himself home. Either Titus is a chauffeur or just some helpful all-around employee.

    • I know the other soaps talk about staff help who we never see (especially Y&R with all those ridiculous "Mrs. Martinez" mentions), but I wanted BTG to do better.
    • @Franko As requested 1976 story summary. I'll be posting it in parts as it is very lengthy  and probably too much to take in at once.  Since 1951 the story of the residents of the town ofRosehill, Love of Life, has revolved around the livesof Vanessa (Van) and Margaret (Meg) Dale and their families. ' Van, now married to Bruce Sterling, finds her husband has become mayor due to the death of the former mayor, Jeff Hart, who was her sister Meg’s husband. Meg offered her son Ben half a million dollars as a wedding gift to marry refined and responsible Betsy Crawford and thus abandon his playboy existence. The offer was so good that Ben married Betsy with alacrity despite the fact that he was already married to Arlene Lovett, a fact very few people knew. Arlene reluctantly agreed to the bigamous marriage on Ben’s assurance that as soon:as he had his hands on the money they would skip town. However, Meg decided Ben needed more time to become responsible for such a large sum of money and has held up the gift. Attorney Jamie Rollins has discovered discrepancies in Ben’s stories concerning his close friendship with Arlene but has been thwarted in his attempts to expose Ben by Ben and Arlene’s successful blackmail retaliation.They drugged him and took suggestive pictures of him in bed with Arlene, which they now threaten to show to Diana Lamont, Jamie’s lover, who is carrying his child. Knowing that Diana’s health and age make carrying this child dangerous to her, Jamie can do nothing. Ben is horrified to discover Betsy is now pregnant, too. Felicia Lamont, married to Diana’s ex-husband, Charles, has been unable to consummate her marriage due to extreme emotional frigidity. Charles has been exceedingly patient, but Felicia’s emotional torment has been increased by the constant harassment of hoodlum/rapist Arnie Logan, whose subtle terror campaign is apparent only to Felicia, thus making her appear to be emotionally unstable. Only Eddie Aleata, Meg’s ex-husband, seems aware of the tortures Felicia is undergoing. Caroline (Cal) Aleata, Meg’s daughter, is becoming romantically involved with Rick Lattimer, formerly married to Bruce’s daughter Barbara, to the dismay of his business partner in the Beaver Ridge Club, who has him earmarked as her latest lover—Cal’s mother, Meg! Realizing that she is an accomplice, albeit unwillingly,in her- husband Ben’s bigamy, Arlene Lovett (Harper) tells attorney Jamie Rollins that she and Ben were once married but divorced before his return to Rosehill. To: prove good faith, Arlene gives Jamie the negatives of compromising pictures of him with Arlene that Ben set up, hoping they could keep Jamie in line by threatening to send them to his wife-to-be, Diana Lamont, who at forty is pregnant for the first time, and thus vulnerable. Jamie finds Diana collapsed on the floor and rushes her to the hospital, where their son is born prematurely. Learning that Diana found a partially burned picture of him and Arlene in bed, Jamie blames himself. The baby, Adam Jonathan. Rollins, has respiratory problems and cannot be saved. Diana feels she has lost everything, recalling the picture as well as the baby. Di and Jamie start to make plans for the future. Then Dr. Albertson informs them that | more tests are necessary, as a shadow appeared on her final X-rays. Exploratory surgery is scheduled, and Diana is shattered to learn later that a hysterectomy was necessary. Ben again asks his mother when she’s going  to give the wedding present (Ben married Betsy Crawford because Meg promised a half million dollars, but she postponed the gift until Christmas, and still hasn’t delivered.) Betsy tells Meg she’s destroying Ben’s manhood by dangling the money in front of him. Learning that Ben is into Ray Slater, a gambler, for six thousand dollars, Meg withdraws her promise of the money. When Ray informs Ben that his loan, with interest, is now up to nine thousand dollars, Ben threatens to go to the police. Ray replies that it’s the money or Ben’s skin, and when Ben tries to slip out of town, he’s badly beaten by collection men and dumped in the snow. Found by two backpackers, Ben is taken to a small hospital with a skull fracture and pneumonia. Meg is stunned to discover that her partner in Beaver Ridge Club, Rick Latimer, whom she considers her private property, is in love with her daughter,Cal. Learning that Cal and Rick are planning a weekend together, Meg arranges an immediate audit of the Beaver Ridge books, keeping Rick in town. Meg’s plot backfires, however, when the audit reveals that Meg wrote the down payment for her next project, the Priestly Estate venture, on the Beaver Ridge construction account. Meg replaces the money, but Rick warns her to stop trying to run his life or he’ll press misappropriation charges. Felicia Lamonte has been harassed by a young hoodlum, Arnie Logan, who has served time for assault and rape. At her painting studio she is again accosted by Logan, and she pulls out her gun, scaring him off. Unable to reach her husband, Charles, she calls Edouard Aleata, who has reinterested her in painting, and he arrives with the police. Charles, finding Eddie there with Felicia, fuels his growing suspicion that there’s something other than friendship between them. Because he’s already jealous, Arnie’s new harassment—notes to Charles that Felicia is unfaithful seem believable. Felicia convinces Charles that a week apart will help their marriage, and in looking over her paintings, she realizes she has grown as a person and feels ready to be a woman. She calls Charles, telling him she no longer wants to be his child virgin bride, but a real wife to him. Later, hearing someone at the door, Felicia assumes it is Charles, and is grabbed by Arnie when she opens it. He drags her downstairs, but she manages to escape and get back to her studio and her gun. Hearing footsteps outside, she fires blindly. Cautiously,she then goes to the door to find Charles lying there. He is rushed to the hospital, where it is discovered that the bullet is lodged in his spine. He’ll recover, but will be paralyzed. Logan is picked up, and charges are confirmed when other victims come forward with similar stories STAY TUNED.MORE TO COME...
