That is weird. I know it's suppose to be percentage of people with their TV's on at the time, but such a vast difference in percentage (despite a similar amount of viewers) in a 2-hour period of the same day?

Well, is it really a surprise the soaps did bad on Christmas and Christmas Eve?

I only watched my shows on Soapnet and the other soaps that aren't on Soapnet I didn't even catch. People have things to do and with soaps not being what they used to be, people would rather be elsewhere. Even Days with it's great episodes those two days is not anything worth people going out of their way to make sure they see it.

Good for all the soaps. Good for Days. The Christmas show the day after Christmas strategy seems to work well. I have to say with the numbers we saw in the ABC release I thought Days would have higher then a 2.1. It just made it sound bigger. I, too, question that numbers a bit. Something seems weird.

I don't know. Only 3 days will be counted and some people took the whole week off due to the short week. Those that did that had more time on their hands then before Christmas and the week between Christmas and New Year's. Usually, late December-mid January brings solid numbers, even in recent time. The last few years the highest numbers usually came the first 2-3 weeks of January. I remember MLK day numbers always being good, even recently.

Happy to see all the soaps get a bump, it is much needed. :)

FINALLY, OLTL gets the ++++++ in all demos!

It was really a great the Xmas week leading into New Years.

I know many treat OLTL as the red headed step child but it seriously has improved and deserves the positive #'s.

Finally the Marcie kidnapping is coming to an end and everyone is going back to Llanview. I predict good things in 2008, but then I am not psychic, just OPTIMISTIC :D

I think it's good, and I definitely think it's better than ATWT. I find that unwatchable and just a year or two ago it was still one of the most literate soaps left on the air. Luke and Noah is the only thing worth watching on that show and to me even that story isn't very good. Jean Passanante has turned it into an even worse imitation of her AMC days.

Wouldn't that mean that Days had more households with more than one person watching?

I've actually had the chance to watch some other soaps besides DAYS, and I must admit that DAYS is becoming a wonderful show that I haven't seen in quite awhile. It's been a lot better than the summer of 2007 that's for sure. I haven't seen ATWT in over a decade, but honestly, it hasn't taken me long in order to figure out who is who and what's going on with whom. ATWT is kicking butt too and I've scratched my head in disbelief because why does GL suck so bad? I've tried to be optimistic with GL but can't seem to because the show is really THAT bad. The storylines are choppy, the comedy scenes with Dinah's Christmas ITL was written as BAD comedy, and the Christmas Eve show that was taken outside the GL studios obviously looked like they were taped in NYC because you could obviously see some of the familiar skyscrapers in the wonderful Big Apple. And it's suppose to be Springfield? Dumb move Ellen Wheeler.

But good job DAYS and ATWT!

    • Creatively, he probably should have stayed with The Doctors, where he stood out as an antihero lead. Not sure what happened with GH. He didn't have the same impact. Was it bad writing, not clicking with co-stars? Didn't they gave him a boat load of money to join GH in 1976? Was Mark Dante just a toned-down version of Nick Bellini? Were they basically the same character?
    • All I can think of is if a lot of big names were leaving around that time she wanted him back as a stopgap, although I have never seen any real evidence that he was popular with GH viewers.
    • I loved watching Shanice hand Leslie her ass and finally shutting her up. It was so good. I also love Martin & Smitty's family.  Anita has to have some sort of plan giving Leslie the tickets to mail for Winterfest. She has to be setting her up for a fall. It's pretty obvious to me Vernon is not cheating with Sharon. I think Sharon is helping him with his terrible singing voice for Winterfest. I still believe Bill & Dani are endgame but I love Dani & Andre too. I am definitely enjoying this story. And making Hayley a black widow is a nice twist.
    • Sorry for the spam. Wasn't sure where to put this, it's from Tony Geary's husband's IG. Tony watching Genie and Maurice on Mo's show.
    • This show is really trundling along BTW. When is someone going to show up to slit Beastmaster's throat or crack the whip on metrosexual Sidwell? (BTW, openly presenting this cheery bon vivant as casually bisexual would at least be something vaguely diverting.) At least kill Brennan by year's end. I'm bored.
    • She told Vanessa to "DOUBLE her offer" on the Jarvis house.  The Jarvis family accepted the doubled price.  Assuming the house has an appraised value of $2,000,000, she's theoretically paid the Jarvis family $4,000,000 for the house.  The bank would loan Leslie 80% of the appraised value ($1,600,000), and Leslie had to pay the balance with cash at closing --- $2,200,000.  She only had ONE million.  Where the hell did she get the rest?!  And now she's got contractors working on the house all day & half the night.  Who's paying THEM?  I keep thinking all this will crash around her.  Either that or the writers have absolutely no idea the limits of a million dollars.  Sounds like a "lot of money", but it obviously ain't when we look at Leslie's spending since she got that million dollar check in August.

    • Vernon is an idiot. Why would he have Sharon in the same hotel that Leslie is staying at?
    • Yes, that out of the blue return was odd. Maybe GG found a forgotten clause in the contract he signed when he was wooed to ABC and they were forced to take him back! Like George Reinholt he talked about the contract that promised him primetime roles. But it was loaded in the networks favor. I think it was Gloria Loring that re-signed at Days on the promise of primetime opportunities, but that was all it was- she was put up for guest spots and TV movies but not necessarily guaranteed that she get the role.
    • I still am baffled by why Monty brought back stunt hire Gerald Gordon in the early '80s out of nowhere for like a year. I haven't found anyone who can come up with a thing he did in that second stint of note.
