Members Vee Posted April 3, 2008 Members Share Posted April 3, 2008 They might as well start getting what they've deserved for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapQueen89 Posted April 3, 2008 Members Share Posted April 3, 2008 1.9 here we come for GH! And couldn't happen to a more deserving show. But that's just my opinion. Perhaps once that happens, someone at ABCD will realize that Frons needs to get his walking papers and be in charge of the water coolers and not the ABC line up.

Members SoapQueen89 Posted April 3, 2008 Members Share Posted April 3, 2008 ABC spins faster and more per cycle than a damn washing machine. LMAO! OY VEY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted April 3, 2008 Members Share Posted April 3, 2008 I doubt Frons cares, but I can't imagine his bosses are very happy. Ad rates must be going down big time. Hopefully someone is waking up and realizing that Frons is a liability for Daytime and that B&E are poison to AMC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted April 3, 2008 Members Share Posted April 3, 2008 Now 18-34 is the key to ABC and not 18-49. The press release sure is pimping that demo...LOL. What happens when they cant even pimp that demo anymore?..LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CouchTomato Posted April 3, 2008 Members Share Posted April 3, 2008 I'm curious how GL with more viewers gets a 1.7 while OLTL with less viewers gets a 1.8: GL Friday: 1.7/2,427,000 OLTL Friday: 1.8/2,282,000 It's amazing how GL is doing better than OLTL when it's shown in different time slots and isn't seen in all markets.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted April 3, 2008 Members Share Posted April 3, 2008 It's a P&G soap, we're lucky we see props on the show still, yet alone an increase in production budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted April 3, 2008 Members Share Posted April 3, 2008 It will take a while. You have to remember ATWT was in the bottom of the 18-49 demo for a long time. Only now is it the Top 4 spots. I've got to say the demos are real good for ATWT right now compared to the other soaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
