I think it's a combination because it has risen, but the others have also fallen. E.g., here, AMC and GH aren't in competition w/ ATWT, but they've been falling, so the viewers didn't shift to ATWT, they just shifted away from AMC and GH.

That makes sense...and I feel bad for soaps in general right now. If they keep this up, Daytime will be headed for life support soon.

I'm so happy that Days went i hope next week will rise again.Please rise i hope that the rating will not go down because of California fire.But I'm so sad of California

The fires have nothing to do with those ratings. They started last Saturday/Sunday the 20th and the 21st. The show was pre-empted here Monday and Tuesday (I'm not positive about Tuesday, though). So the fires have no baring on the ratings posted above.

Whoa, look at AMC. I wish I could say I'm surprised or even upset, but B&E are proving themselves to be everything I feared they would be. It's like watching the Titanic sink, and not being able to do a damn thing about it. Whoa, what happened to this show?

LMFAO at GH. I love it. Frons and Guza are going to be pimping each other all the way to the unemployment line.

OLTL, DAYS, and perhaps B&B are so deserving of a rise. Thankfully two out of those three did rise. Congrats to DAYS and B&B. Days showcased one of the best death scenes in soap opera history.

Fingers crossed that someday soon OLTL will be ABC's number one watched soap (Hopefully not by default). It's the only soap on ABC daytime that I can recognize thanks to RC.

OLTL deserves higher ratings that what it is getting right now. It is so much better then it has been in a long time.

But at least there is one ray of hope in this....at least it's not just OLTL that has been going down in the ratings, but instead afftecting all three ABC soaps. Also, it is still ahead of AMC. Now I just keep waiting for the day it passes GH and stays there for awhile.

I'm waiting right there with you. OLTL deserved to surpass GH weeks ago. The ultimate vindication would be OLTL improving on its lead in, as it is now, and GH not maintaining OLTL's lead in ratings. As the red-headed stepchild of ABCD, OLTL needs this recognition.

I know I say this alot but...

These numbers are PATHETHIC!

When will the people in charge WAKE UP AND DO SOMETHING ELSE?!

Wow i'm surprised to say that i'm happy my favorite show GH is hitting an all time low

Do they really think that having a new mob boss will boost the ratings??

We want our old faves back (Lucy, Anna, Laura) and get rid of that stupid mob

I started watching B&B recently because the baby s/l caught my eye, also the 'Golden girl' was in the show too, it is getting interesting to watch.

Stephanie & the "Golden girl" were a nice change of scenery last Friday. Unfortunately, Anne (Betty White) came & went back to Chicago in just a couple of finely-acted scenes. Wish they could've kept her around awhile longer for her "daughter." BW & SF work so well off each other. This week is Stephanie's first full week back. Soon they'll start exiting Taylor from the show because of Hunter Tylo's personal tragedy. Given these unexpected real life events, B&B's doing very well keeping things moving smoothly & getting their Nielsens up.

Yup, it was the remote scenes at Montana at the lake!!

I never understand how people say OLTL is good. I catch the show in passing and I never see any Buchanans. All I see is the same insufferable characters they always show. OLTL deserves every low rating it gets until such time Asa, Kevin, Joey, Cord and Tina are all back on canvas (alive in Asa's case) and there are no more comatose cops on 5 days a week. I don't need to watch McBains anymore than I needed Rappaports.

I won't disagree completely. It's not so much that it's good, just that there is an obvious attempt to make it more balanced, and there has been more Buch action - but as you imply, at the expense of Asa. Yes, still too much McBain. I guess I'm just more optimistic than I've been in a while and willing to give it a chance. But I understand your point of view and my patience won't last forever.

Go figure....a lush, romantic scene....no bad guys, no mental whackjobs with lisps, no guns, no one falling off a cliff or almost getting shot. And the ratings go UP. D'oh. It's not that hard, STUPID IIC!!!!

And it was definetly the best show of the week. Thus the higher ranking for that eppy. I just wish we would have seen more. Instead of them going back to Oakdale.
