If we go by these, it looks like it's gonna be a bad week for soaps because of the hurricane and CIA leak press conference.

[dtchicago]

I figured with the hurricane and everything else that the ratings would suck. It looks like OLTL might only make it to a 2.5, if they're lucky. That's ashame being that it was such a good week!

[Chanel]

I am really interested too see how Days did.

[xDaysAddict]

me too.I hope it dropped.

[Angela]

Thanks, allat, so that should average out to: 2.4 (-.1) for AMC, OLTL got a 2.5 (-.1), GH a 2.8 (SA).

[Toups]

Wow, a great week for NBC (especially PSNS) in demos. I thought for sure they'd fall due to the interruptions.

I hope the HHs and Total Viewers are good too.

[Chanel]

OMG, Look at Passions!

Its been awhile since they had a "big" jump in the 18-49 demos.

Congrats to them!

Thanks Toups!

[Toups]

Yeah, I don't remember the last time PSNS had a +.3 jump in 18-49 demos.....and I'm too lazy to search my archives. LOL

[King]

Wow.......wow. Looks like PSNS Red created some buzz!

[Chanel]

LOL Toups!

I was going to go and look to see what happen durning the week of May9-13, since it was the last time Days/Passions match this rating.

[pranji]

Congrats to Days. I don't think they deserve it, but I'm happy for NBC nonetheless.

I just skimmed the recaps for that week. Donald Trump was on and it was heavy on Sami, Austin, Nicole, Bo, Hope, Jack, Jen, and Lucas. Chelsea, Max, Billie, and Frankie were here and there. It was light on Shimi, the Alex story, and I didn't see Kate or Philip/Belle mentioned.

[Chanel]

Last week on Days was all about:

Lucas starting his new Job. He als had a great convo with Maggie

"Three Company" Days edition(Nicole moving in with Sami/Austin)

Shawn dropping out of School while Mimi got a job so did Shawn

Chelsea being her usually bratty self

Bo&Hope Arguing about everything

John determination to get Marlena to remember.

There was no Phelle or Kate in last week episodes.

[FanSoAp07]

wowowow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What happened on PSNS?!?!?
