I'm sorry, but I'm *very* disappointed. This is the week of New Year's! In my 13 years of watching soaps, this is historically the biggest week for soap numbers. This is the week people are home from work, school, etc. and take the time to check out their old shows. Such weak, weak improvements! At least DAYS got a bump up in the rankings, but still at a 2.3! 4 out of the 8 soaps remained the SAME? Not even a tenth of an increase? Y&R went down? Only one soap above a 3.0?

C'mon, this was Christmas/New Years, the week miracles were supposed to happen. The one time of year where we see how many viewers still out there are even remotely interested. Evidently, there isn't any interest from viewers who've tuned out on a regular basis.

What a bummer, IMO.

What an amusing thread! :lol::lol:

I don't watch DAYS or GH: I gave up on GH years ago, and DAYS lost me when Matt Ashford & Missy Reeves left the show.

DAYS fans, who seem to make up 95% of the regulars here - I'm happy for you guys that the ratings are improving. The DiMeras and a resurrected John Black don't interest me, but we all have our preferences LOL

I am enjoying B&B currently - in many respects, it is at least the equal of its big brother Y&R.

The CBS soaps are definitely still the best of the bunch, as the ratings reflect. B)

I was shocked by that too!! I don't remember them being that high since I've covered the ratings. LOL

I've been really impressed by ATWT's demos. And yeah, it looks like Jean is safe. LOL

Glad DAYS got a +.4 in 18-34. That 0.9 last week was scary.

Hopefully next week, DAYS/ATWT/B&B will all be ahead of GH.

I don't think they ever have in ratings history. Well I mean early 80's to present time. I am sure they were #1 or #2 in that demo during their time at the top of the ratings in the 60's to mid 70's. ATWT has the best numbers of all the soaps from last year. Either up in ever category or just down -.1. There is no way they are going to fire Passant now though. I am still in shock. Seriously 18-49 is the most important number to advertisers. So it looks good for ATWT. And look at B&B too doing well. GL got a nice bump too. AMC dead last in that demo.

No wonder ABC hasnt done a press release for the demos 18-49...LOL

      I guess it depends on your device.  I can watch CW shows via their website on my Windows PC.

      DAYS: November 2025 Discussion Thread

      By AbcNbc247 · Posted

      Welcome back, Shawn Douglas! It's been a while. It really is too bad that the writers don't really have an interest in the character because there are still a lot of ways that he can be used effectively on the canvas. He should have been a part of the 60th anniversary celebrations as well. If anything, just to represent Bo and Hope. And I'd much rather see Jada paired with him than possibly with Theo. But I enjoyed him getting caught up with Belle, and comforting her. I'm sure they'll find their way back to each other at some point but I do like them as divorced friends. I just hope we see it play out onscreen. Belle being a dick about Sami again was unnecessary though. And we finally saw Liam again!  I'm curious to see how this storyline is going to play out, and who's going to be weaved into it. He and Abe do work well together too. And we learned that he has a kid. Hopefully, we'll learn more about his character in the future. But I'm not really sure about Johnny and Chanel suddenly having problems with raising Trey. They've wanted a baby for so long, so I don't understand why this is even an issue. They should know by now what it's like to raise a baby. But I did enjoy Johnny's scenes with EJ, and that Johnny still hasn't refused to forgive him. This storyline was/is very clunky, but having the two of them be at odds is the right decision. There's so much story potential that can be drawn from that. As for Chad... there was no time for us to see his reunion with Will, but there's time for us to see him talking BS with Leo? I don't get it. And I don't get all this random dating app stuff either. Leo and Javi were boring af too. If we're forced to endure them, can they at least have some real conflict? The two of them losing the baby was the perfect opportunity for it.

      I enjoy BF better on Days than on YR.   Chad is greater than Cane, in my opinion.
