I think DAYS had some preemptions on Thursday and Friday(not sure if it was just Friday), so a 2.2 isn't that bad considering a 2.5 gets a soap 3rd place now. GL numbers really aren't all that bad considering third place is only .5 away. I am hoping DAYS can get to a 2.3 next week and possibly a 2.4, but I wont get my hopes up.

Thanks for posting Lsktreet!

That 2.4 on Tuesday for Days is crazy. I checked, and that was the day that started with the forklift going after EJ and Sami, and the day Nick got drunk with Shawn and hit Jett. Wasn't exactly a big day for Days that week. Very odd.

It will be interesting to see who will wind up at #4 next week. Looks like Aaron's return didnt do well. But all of the CBS lineup was down on Friday. Although I found Friday's show boring. And Thursday's ATWT was the beginning of Meg/Craig's wedding.

Nice to see ATWT get a 2.4 on Thursday.

Here is what happened that day:

Alison panics after Dusty admits he called the police about Lance attacking her. After the police leave, Alison has a panic attack when she takes a shower and claims she can't wipe the blood off. Dusty jumps into the shower and brings her back to reality. He also insists on calling Emily. After he lies next to her to help her sleep, she falls asleep but then starts kissing him and he responds. Overhearing the florist, Paul learns that Craig has moved up the wedding date to today. He calls to reserve a jet for international travel. Hearing about his little trouble with Barbara yesterday, Margo gets Craig to admit he's marrying Meg today to end any future problems. He then shows Margo the rings he picked up at a jeweler in Old Town, unaware that they are the same rings Paul returned the other day. Realizing them for what they are, Margo warns Craig they're "bad luck" rings but he laughs at the claim. Meg confesses to an angry Emma that she's marrying Craig so he'll give back to Lucinda her company. Emma quickly doubts that he'll follow through on the idea and urges her to reconsider but when Paul calls, she rushes to see him. He excitedly tells her of their plans to fly to Italy where they will be married. Emily slips Paul her grandmother's locket as a promise they'll be together soon. When Craig and Margo arrive, Paul hides. After she talks with an excited Gwen about her session with the producer today, Cleo worries when she finds Gwen's lucky earrings in her purse. She hands them back to her and insists that she found them and didn't steal them. Cleo later accuses Jade of planting the earrings and when she denies it, Cleo assures her she'll never tell anyone she brought her to town. Jade doesn't believe her.

Those ratings for DAYS are good. They were down to 2.1 on Thursday and Friday, which is to be expected with the preemptions, but hit 2.2s and 2.4s for the beginning. Here's hoping it lasts. And that forklift cliffhanger really worked. They should do more cliffhangers.

I am not her biggest fan. She can really mess up some scenes. She is good, but by no means a powerhouse, in my opinion.

BUT back to the ratings. We don't want non-DAYS fans complaining again.

    • Of the so-called "contract" cast members, I'd venture to say these are recurring: Bryton James, Camryn Grimes, and (possibly) Michael Graziadei.  I've suspected since 2018 that Kate Linder and Christian LeBlanc are recurring.  And I believe we all know Miss Ordway is, because she said so. lol.  
    • Dante blaming Gio instead of his dweeb son and the other dweeb was just ridiculous. Gio's paternity story is going in circles with no reveal. I've already started fast forwarding Drew and his stupid ho Willow's story. Kristina's story is beyond dumb with no great payoff.
    • Sarah (with the English accent) isn't just some random character.  Sarah was once the housekeeper for Eliot Dorn and Margo Huntington.  One of the following 2 scenarios happened a few months ago: (1):  One night, while Margo wasn't at home, and while Oscar the Doorman wasn't at his post, a burglar sneaked into the private elevator, rode up to the penthouse, stole several thousand dollars worth of Margo's valuable diamonds and pearls, and tied-up Eliot Dorn and Sarah the Housekeeper, ensuring that Eliot and Sarah couldn't pursue the burglar back down to the lobby or phone the police to apprehend the burglar. OR --  (2): Eliot Dorn was SLEEPING with Sarah the Housekeeper, and the two of them conspired to steal Margo's jewelry and went on a lavish spending spree and then tied THEMSELVES up to make it look as though a burglary had occurred in the penthouse. Margo Dorn currently believes Scenario #1 occurred, and she's rather annoyed that the "incompetent police" haven't located her stolen jewels yet.  Eliot and Sarah know that Scenario #2 actually occurred.  When Sarah stopped by the Unicorn and saw Eliot kissing Raven Swift, Sarah snidely said, "Oh! This must be Mrs. Dorn!  Nice to meet you, Mrs. Dorn!" Sarah knew good & damn well Raven isn't "Mrs. Dorn" because Sarah worked for Margo Dorn on a daily basis for many months.  That was Sarah's not-so-subtle way of announcing, "I'll be paying a visit to District Attorney Logan Swift and letting him know that his wife is sleeping with you, and I'll be paying a visit to WMON to let Margo Huntington know that you're sleeping with Mrs. Swift!"  lol.     
    • The AMC hate came from Jamey Giddens/DC and their industry friends, IMO. For whatever reason I always felt they targeted the show, and it was wrong. AMC ratings were decent and even went up under Pratt (Yet, he was fired). The ratings were also good under Broderick and lowered out after her interim.  There was no reason to be upset with the show other than it being slow. They literally played it safe and did the best they could in 2010 and 2011. 
    • I have very detailed synopses of all 1976 storylines for the soaps from the Daytime Serial Newsletter. Please let me know if you are interested in a particular show and I will post it in the appropriate thread. As I stated they are very detailed, so I don't want to clutter up threads if posters are not interested.

    • Surely we (and Billy Flynn) are not going to be saddled with a character named Aristotle Dumas? This isn't 1970's Edge of Night.
    • What annoys me a little bit about the "day players" is they sound a bit too "Brooklyn-ish" sometimes.  Obviously, the show was taped in New York City, and the actors are all New York actors, but Monticello is supposed to be located in Illinois or Ohio.  Occasionally, they grab actors and actresses for small roles who have VERY distinct New York accents, which contrasts sharply with the main cast, none of whom have noticeable accents (except for our dashing European gigolo, Eliot Dorn, of course).  The heavy Brooklyn accent works fine if the character is a bookie, or the owner of a pawn shop, or a guy who's selling stolen guns on the street corner.  But when it's a steadily recurring character -- such as the first Mrs. Goodman, who worked for Miles and Nicole -- it's pretty jarring to me sometimes.  And you'll see it often -- such as an "under-five" character who witnesses a car accident, or a character who witnesses a shooting, or the occasional desk clerk, or waiter.
