But what else will make them wake up? Letters don't do it. Posts at soap forums don't do it. The viewers they have/had are unhappy, and they are doing a piss poor job of finding new ones.

One in the hand is worth two in the bush, as they say.

I think AMC is in good standing compared to every other soaps. AMC either decreased by like 5,000 or increased! I am glad that AMC is holding. Everyone is bleeding except for AMC! AMC deserves these ratings. I hope they can take the #2 spot! They deserve it cause it is so good! :)

The following questions which hasn't been addressed to the current declining ratings are:

1) How much of a pre-emption has affected the daytime soaps from the Minneapolis I-35 Collapse breaking story? This story interrupted several days in some big markets such as the Twin City market. I know that the story broke out to pre-empt ATWT and GL in the Toledo, OH market.

2) Since CBS.com now offers Inner Tube to watch the entire episodes of Y&R, ATWT and GL instead of taping, tivoing, vod-ing or watching the show on TV, how much of a shift from viewers to the internet? I for one a little over a month ago when Inner Tube started, I now stop watching GL on TV or even taping it, I watch the show on the internet and I love it. There has to be a reflection of how many viewers have left TV to watch GL on the internet. Also that goes for how many viewers watch Y&R, AMC, GH, and OLTL on the SoapNet cable network?

GL is my #1 soap even though I keep up with the other shows periodically to see what's going on (thank you SoapNet and Soap Opera Weekly), but GL's current ratings is very flawed and underrated IMO.

The I-35 Bridge Collapse happened on August 1, 2007 6pm (CST); which the breaking, covering newstory went on for several days which interrupted Thursday (8/2) and Friday (8/3) shows. In Toledo, ATWT and GL was interrupted from time-to-time on Thursday but was back full-time on Friday.

The Twin Cities and the surrounding markets were pre-empting their regular line-up from Thursday 8/2 through earlier this week; and probably pre-empted more yesterday since they've recovered more bodies. With that kind of impact, it does affect ratings in certain factors.

Another point I like to make in regards to declining ratings specifically on the CBS soaps, the primetime ratings this summer on CBS is significantly down compared to a year ago. The cable networks are booming these days such as TNT, Lifetime, FX, Bravo, USA Network, etc. Typically, if the ratings are down on primetime it affects daytime and across the board no matter what, just as NBC has been suffering in the primetime ratings for the past few years since "Friends" left the airwaves it impacted the NBC soaps as well.

I'm assuming once football season is back on CBS, new fall shows, and the new host Drew Carey debuts on "The Price Is Right", it should help raise the ratings on the CBS soaps.

ABC soaps have been holding steady due to the success of recent primetime ratings (i.e. Desperate Housewives, Grey's Anatomy, Ugly Betty, Lost, etc, etc).

Why is CBSD falling so hard? This can only get worse when the PIR lead-in loses ratings this fall (and you know it will.) I think 2007 might just be the end of CBS' number 1 streak.

Time to clean house, CBS. Latham, Bloom, Goutman, Kreizman, and Wheeler all need to go post haste.

    • I feel bad for judging a child, but, to be fair, she's over 40 now. My daughter was into Halloweentown when it reran on the Disney Channel in the 2010s. I wasn't impressed then, either.
    • Isn't that funny how certain memories as young children stick with you through life... Haha I totally get what you mean. That's how I felt with GL in the beginning, but then I got used to it. Seeing so many of my favorite AMC characters on GL was wild - Walker, Irizarry, Dusay, Budig, Aleksander, Gil Rogers, etc.  Ironically, it helps that Irizarry and Dusay played both mother/son in both shows. I know Marcy Walker was wasted on GL as Tangie, but selfishly I'm so glad she was. When she left GL and returned immediately to AMC as Liza Colby, man was it such a great storyline. The Tad/Dixie/Liza triangle was so emotional, tense and memorable. The AMC fans got lucky with that one. WRCW, Tad/Liza working together, the affair, then Jason Sheffield and the shooting on-set... all amazing stuff.   LOL! 
    • I remember thinking that he was fantastic after Reva's 1990 "death," with his grief and attempted relationship with Harley. I also remember the cute Marah, not the toothy chick from Halloweentown.
    • Totally agree - we have much to learn about Vernon, and I'd love to see it.
    • I've enjoyed Vernon but I wouldn't be opposed to learning more about his life beyond his political work. What kind of family does he come from? Does he have any siblings? I feel like that could be an interesting thing to look at.
    • GH:       A- DAYS:   A- BTG:     B- B&B:     F Y&R:     F
    • I've always said, Robert Newman does not get enough credit for the popularity of Josh/Reva. Had he stayed in '91, and had years to build other relationships before Kim returned, I'm not sure we'd have been stuck with "always".
    • Bizarrely, while I didn't see it, I distinctly remember my younger sister telling me. We were walking to the store, and at the top of the hill she let out "Roger raped Holly", and I swear I remember it echoing for what seemed like forever. She would've been five at the time.  I know,,,which I find extraordinary. I have toyed with the idea of watching Another World for Maeve, Kathleen Widdoes and Beverlee. But watching Vanessa call Emma Snyder "momma" kinda weirded me out. LOL. I believe that's what I read in the recaps from the time as well. I meant, I couldn't quite believe that the audience wouldn't understand that a woman preparing to go to her engagement party  was raped. I know that on ATWT John raped Kim while they were married, resulting in Andy, but I think they shied away from calling that marital rape.
    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
