Members Rocket Man Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 Interesting to see if the CBS soaps gets a bump or not....... Posted from TV Week by James Hibberd Modest ‘Price’ Bump for Drew Carey And the actual retail value of changing your morning game show host is … About a 10 percent ratings bump. Drew Carey’s debut week hosting CBS’ classic game show “The Price Is Right” resulted in slightly better numbers than last year with Bob Barker at the microphone. “Price” averaged 5.4 million viewers for the week of Oct. 15-21, matching the “Price” average from Oct. 16-22 in 2006. Among adults 18 to 49, Carey garnered a modest bump—up 10 percent to a 1.1. For daytime shows, networks typically target women 25 to 54, which also saw a slight increase for Carey—up 7 percent to a 1.6 rating. Because of the host changing of the guard, “Price” started about a month late this season. If Carey’s first week in October is compared to Barker’s first week in September '06, there are still gains for Carey—up 7 percent among women 25 to 54, 8 percent among total viewers and 22 percent among adults 18 to 49.

Members jcar03 Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 Maybe people tuned into to see Carey but will they stay is a better question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Rocket Man Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 In most markets, "Price Is Right" airs 11am EST with Y&R at 12:30, B&B at 1:30, ATWT 2 and GL 3. But in some of the biggest market, GL airs 9 or 10am right before "Price Is Right" or B&B airs 11am with "Price Is Right" leading into the show. IMO I think ATWT will be least impacted from "Price" surging ratings due to their time slots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sintell Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 Thanks for info about GL ATWT...saw the new format ideas...sounds like a lot of money being saved and no cast being cut! Great!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KevC1980 Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 Well the fires shouldn't affect last weeks numbers..that will affect this weeks...I'm really hoping John's death gives Days a big bump.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted October 25, 2007 Author Administrator Share Posted October 25, 2007 New lows for GH!!!! Suck it, Guza/Frons/JFP! Hooray for DAYS going up a bit. Well deserved for an awesome week. Next week could be a disaster for every soap - the fires in California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PhoenixRising05 Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 Awesome for Days. Well deserved. Ouch to GH but that is a long time coming. These ratings are awful. As had as Days has been ratings-wise, they are still in the mix. The competition is coming down to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 New lows for GH! Suck it Guza/Frons/JFP!! You're misguided views on what the fans want is causing more and more to tune out. I only feel bad for OLTL, which is really doing so good right now. They deserve to be the #1 rated soap on ABC. *does crotch chop* >--X--< >--X--< >--X--< Congrats to days for gaining over 200,000 viewers. Hopefully they can sustain and gain more over the coming months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jcar03 Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 This is the BEST b-day gift!!!!!!!!!! Whoot woo!!!! What is sad is that is in 7th place BUT only .3 out of 3rd! Yikes for all of daytime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dale Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 Yeah, this really sucks for OLTL. It is very entertaining these days. ABC's ratings are in the toilet. And I agree about GH. Talk about a show with an identity crisis!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ZaraB Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 OLTL on its own can't do much when the two shows bookending it are tanking fast and furious. ABC may just be losing that loyal all-ABC daytime viewer finally. OLTL is the most recognizable of the three, but that is only due to Carlivati's recent efforts, and it is still not saying much. I barely recognize anyone on AMC anymore, and haven't even tried GH. With as recently and as little as I watch them, I recognize more on ATWT or Y and R.

Members CouchTomato Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 How did GH get a higher HH on Friday with less viewers than Thursday? Do all the Friday numbers & totals take into account the CBS & ABC pre-emptions in the largest market (and maybe elsewhere) for Torre's press conference?

Members Rocket Man Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 Shouldn't GL be 2.0 for the week not 1.9????????? GL Monday: 1.8/2,574,000 Tuesday: 2.0/2,725,000 Wednesday: 2.0/2,538,000 Thursday: 2.2/2,859,000 Friday: 1.8/2,369,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 B&B - Woooohoooo! Finally!!! Was about time that they hit 3.0 mark again... ...the power of Susan Flannery and great storytelling (since Y&R is down from last week...).

Members c0rinne Posted October 25, 2007 Members Share Posted October 25, 2007 GH: Once again, focusing on certain characters that we don't want to see leads to people not watching? Hmm, shock? Nope! Go (down) GH!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
