B) I have a question bout Y&R's ratings

Y&R

Monday: 3.4/4,612,000

Tuesday: 3.7/4,897,000

Wednesday: 3.7/4,981,000

Thursday: 3.4/4,759,000

Friday: 3.4/5,059,000

Y does Friday have a 3.4, but more total viewers than Tuesday which has a 3.7, but the 2nd highest in total viewers? Thanks in advance for the answer :)

Let me explain..or try to. There are just more viewers watching. On my Nielsen diary book it asks to put what shows you watch. Then next to it you have to fill out how many people were watching that show on that set(meaning TV). So say I watched Y&R in my living room on Tuesday...but on Friday my Mom, Dad, Uncle, neighbor join me...it adds up to more viewers...I would include them.

Thank you...I knew there was a reason Friday was at 1.4. I was about ready to canvas some message boards to find out what affiliates aired Days last Friday. Don't the networks make allowances for things like that? Well, the French Open just cost Days -.1. There were two 2.0's and two 1.9's the other days. They're sitting with a 1.8 now.

I swear to you, Ken Corday will continue to get covers on "The Plan to Save Days!" even after NBC finally gives him a cancellation notice. The man is unbelievable. Heart in the right place, perhaps, but so consistently knee-jerk impulsive and wrongheaded in his every approach to a problem.

As for OLTL, I am pleased by the ratings and have to again stick up for its dialogue. I think it's now some of the best on daytime, rivaling the dialogue people at GH, Y&R and others. For years, OLTL had very stilted dialogue under Higley, Tomlin/Whitesell/Broderick and yes, at times, Malone, but now it's getting a naturalism and realism back, as well as some poetry to it. I'm going to be the bitch and say that the scenes everyone unfairly compares BW's last week to - the Days scenes last winter with Marlena and Belle after John's death - were waaayyyy overrated due to the high emotions of fans at the time. When I finally saw them I was extremely underwhelmed, and I think part of it was DH's performance and the overall distracted nature of the show, being pulled in many directions by both the writers and Corday. Despite Sheffer's team's good intentions, I have found RC's OLTL and its daily dialogue much more natural and well-written than the Sheffer regime at DOOL. Sheffer's people were very capable of doing great dialogue, don't get me wrong. The problem is, they often had to shoehorn in new stories or crazy last-minute ideas or mid-stream plot changes constantly.

Also, I felt Bree was amazing last week. I've often found her to be a limited actress but she really surprised me and did amazing work.

Oh, and one more thing: I feel bad for Y&R. I think very highly of Josh Griffith despite his last stint at OLTL, but to me he never seemed to be a right fit for that show at all. His work is less formal and austere than Y&R tends to be, more visceral, more rock and roll, skewing younger. He's not the right man for that kind of show and I don't think Sheffer is either.

People tune out a show for a number of reasons. I, personally, can't say what happened, but it's kinda funny how after that story was settled.....the ratings started tanking.

I think it's a multitude of things why DOOL is once again falling in the ratings, but I can't say now nor in the future what makes a fan tune out. :)

      Hahaha - I do. I've always been the type, though, that can't miss anything. I get FOMO, so I'll not skip episodes or fast forward anything. There are only a few TV shows I've dropped because they got so bad vs. sticking it out to the end.  The promise that GL 1997 is better is what keeps me going. I especially want to see the fallout of Blake's lie about her twins and then Annie's descent which I believe won Watros's Emmy.

      Rita's rape is an episode i constantly search on YouTube hoping one day that it will show up. I always feel like I may have seen it, but I was only 6 at the time and can never figure any of the things I have vague recollection of

      The rape was in 1979 after they were married. Blake was the result of Holly cheating with him while she was married to Ed. I believe she was born in 1975.

      No. Ed and Holly were married and having problems. She had an affair with Roger and that's when Christina--Blake--was conceived. The rape happened much later, after Holly and Roger were married.

      Was Blake the product of Roger raping Holly, or did that come after when they were a couple?

      I really wish we could see that episode...absolutely, my memory could be faulty, it was a very long time ago. I'm not going to contradict what the actors said--there has to be a reason it made them so uncomfortable that they talked about it in the press and complained to TPTB. I think that was the first one where they made the point that they wanted to educate the audience about the subject.

          Oh yes, trying to get into any soap from scratch starting post-2010 would be hard. I prefer to go back to the good ol' days, before the decline.

      Can we talk about how iconic the 1994 tornado was on AMC? I was scanning through old episodes last night and came across this episode. The tornado was epic and the storylines/aftermath were so good (Julia's scar/Noah!; Jenny/Ray/Nola/Jesse in heaven with Tad, etc).  For 1994, these special effects and budget for this big event were amazing. 10 out of 10!  The only thing missing is Erica!  I can't recall where Erica was at the time, but I really wish she had been involved in this storyline.
