Members LoyaltoAMC Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 According to Strasser, weren't the dailies for OLTL last Mon and Tues through the roof? I would imagine that would've lifted the rest of the ABC lineup. And I can't believe AMC didn't get some bump on its own, however slight, for the wedding. My guess is OLTL at 2.2 and AMC at 2.1, with an even further divide in the demos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 I can see AMC getting a slight bump, not a big one though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 I agree with your assessments of the shows. But y'all just don't believe that the ratings really don't dip and rise with the week's stories, do you? Not really, they don't. And if they DID, we should all be horrified. Because if the shows really did rise and fall based on a week's stories, we'd see the shows do all kinds of horrific shock and awe just to increase eyeballs in a given week. And we'd be left with horrible plot driven messes with absolutely no long-term story. What I believe is that both AMC and OLTL are good, and better than they were. With that in mind, I hope AMC and OLTL can sustain the quality, and the ratings will show a gradual increment due to the sustained quality.

Members RoseVioletDaisy Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 I wonder how many people didn't even know what was going on AMC last week. I only heard about Jesse and Angie's impending wedding here, on this board. I saw very little, if anything, about it on TV, even during OLTL.

Members kentville Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 With Kick and Trick on the front burner, B&B should tank. Both couples are vomit inducing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sacha Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 who is Kick? As for Trick, don't underestimate the power of hunter tylo on the ratings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MoTheGreat Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 Katie & Nick I think B&B been good for the last couple of weeks.. & AMC been good. I hope these two soaps go up. I haven't watch AMC in the two weeks but I'm sure they was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members wiccachick_1 Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 I gotta say last week on AMC was some of the best soap I've seen in a long time. I'm really hoping they got some kind of bump because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Supersage Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 ^^^ I totally agree, Wicca! It wasn't just the special effects that made it "soapy;" it was the characterizations, drama and romance that made it a soap opera. I only hope that the ratings reflect some of that.

Members wiccachick_1 Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 Just for idle conversation while we wait for ratings.... Luke and Laura are listed on tvguide.com best wedding list. Along with the Moldavia (am I remembering that country's name right???) wedding from Dynasty. You are spot on Supersage. I was fully engaged in all of the stories and I was so excited to see a wedding with a gathering of the cast like that. I know they are a pain to shoot but the payoff is spectacular for the viewers if it's done right and this one was. LOVED it...true story, I tend to watch the show while on my treadmill and while Jesse and Angie were saying their vows I was bawling like a baby. It's not easy to sob and run at the same time...I wouldn't recommend it! hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bandbfan Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 I really like Nick and Katie. I would think that any s/l with Heather Tom wouldn't have a negative change on the ratings just because some of the Y&R fans may be more likely to watch B&B.

Members GHJunkie4Life Posted May 30, 2008 Members Share Posted May 30, 2008 Hi new here... Just wanted to comment on B&B. Overall the show is boring to me and it shocks me the people they currently have paired up (Taylor who I love is now paired up with boytoy loser Rick!?). And lets not even start on Eric and Donna. However I did tune in the other day to see the funeral for Storm and I must say that Heather Tom had me in tears throughout the whole show. It was just gut wrenching stuff. Realism and everything. Cuz at the end of the day I have those same doubts too about those I love. Anyways I think she's doing an excellent job and I wish her the best over there even though the show isn't exactly my cup of tea anymore when it comes to soaps. Y&R has become mind rumbling boring. If not for the few scenes of Nick and Phyllis I thought I would have died yesterday. Everyone in the soap world (at least online) was crying and moaning for LML to be fired...well she's gone down and what do you know the show hasn't magically gone up in ratings nor in quality. I even think its gone down the drain with her gone. Who knows by this time next year B&B could be #1 and GH battling for #2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted May 30, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted May 30, 2008 Y&R hit a new low again!! 3.4 in HH and 4,646,000 in Total Viewers and 1.6 in 18-49! Hurry Hogan, hurry!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
