Wow, it really is going to be a four-way race soon for fourth place here pretty soon! Go Days!!! Actually, I can see AMC continuing to fall in the ratings. The show is really stale right now and not just because of Greenlee. Zendall is part of it too. They are dull, dull, dull, IMHO. I find it funny that some fans think Zendall has been the driving force for the ratings for AMC...so if that is the case...how come they aren't being blamed for the drop and it is all Greenlee's fault???????

I am glad Y&R is holding steady. I think that if they start to falter, then the rest of the soaps will begin to collapse even further.

So, let me get this straight. Days gets a 2.4 on Tuesday for a teen centric episode but 2.2's on Monday and Tuesday for the Bo/Hope and Doug/Julie stuff. Wow...and we wonder why Days uses the teens as much as they do. They look at dailies and see them getting the highest number of the week and they wrongly assume we want to see them. Ugh.

On a side note, the 2.1's at the end of the week were expected. In fact, that is pretty good with the preemptions. I am going to hope for a 2.3 or 2.4 for this week.

Good for ATWT and looks like a pretty ok week for soaps. This week will be interesting with the 1st week of summer and what looks like a tight race for 4th. I am interested in seeing what teens being out of school will do for the ratings. Days usually gets some bumps gradually over the next few weeks and then holds them into August. We'll see.

As for Y&R. I hope the downward trend continues. They deserve it and more.

Because Greenlee's been driving storyline since May 1. Everything is about Greenlee and reacting to her. I know she's the reason I've started watching DAYS. I watched my first full episode of DAYS in years last week, lol.

I won't say Z/K are the end all and be all of the show, they aren't. But when they're driving the story and it's that "romantic," buliding-on type of story - be it the coma or the serial killer - the ratings do not go under 2.5. And they typically go up from 2.3-2.4. That tells me they're one of the few thing that, IMO, that actually works for the show.

The Greenlee storyline (with Ryan/Annie/Zach/Kendall/The Kids) is the majority of the show and it has been quite obnoxious, redundant, etc... Then we have Erica/Jack, and that reality show - the storyline is obnoxious and also redundant. JR's been pretty much useless since he went to the dark side (the Carey's). I'd say Sean/Colby's stuff is fine, but it can't carry a show.

Congrats to DAYS. It's the older dudes that are bringing me back in, loved the D/J, B/H stuff I've seen.

GL is up again and expect the show to gain new viewers after the Emmy Awards show, it was a great promo tool for GL and the summer action packed storylines Dinah, Jonathan's comeback and the Josh Reva Cassie showdown are going to bring GL into the 2.3's once again...just watch!.

Rugrat i'm glad you are checking out Days...Bope have been so entertaining...They are the perfect example of how to write a happily married couple on a soap..I love them investigating together..I'm thinking Days will go up a few notches over the next few weeks...This has been a solid week for the show..

Sorry, but I don't buy that Zendall was responsible for these ratings at that time. Wasn't Ryan still involved heavily in the Kendall's life around the time of the coma and for the serial killer storyline? An argument could be made that it was the Ryan/Kendall/Zach dynamic that kept people interested. Bianca was on the show so an argument could be made that she was driving the ratings or holding them steady. Wasn't Babe featured heavily at the time too?? Wasn't there a lot of Babe/Josh? Didn't Janet come back around that time?? Wasn't the show teasing the audience about a possible Dixie return?? It could have been any number of these storylines that influenced the ratings so I don't believe that it was because of Zendall. :lol:

All I am saying if someone is going to make a claim that a certain pairing is driving the ratings then when the ratings go down that pairing has to share responsibility for the decrease also. If that pairing is so strong, then it shouldn't matter what kind of storyline they are in, the ratings should still be strong because they are so popular and the force that drives the show and the ratings. It bothers me when somebody says the ratings are this because such and such are together. Soaps don't work that way, IMHO.
