June 12, 200817 yr Member Bree Williamson in the immediate aftermath was just laughable, but that could be how she was scripted, with nonstop hysterical crying the entire episode. John Brotherton has always been a bad actor that people simply elevated because his character is so entertaining. The only person who has seriously entertained me is Robin Strasser. Those scenes with Langston a couple days ago were flawless. To clarify, when I said the writing was bad, I meant how the episodes were structured, the forgettable dialogue and mediocre subplots. This could've been their Emmy submission, but they failed overall. They seemed to have wanted something grand and the way it was promoted sounded better than what I actually saw. Nash through the skylight onto Rex and Gigi? Classic soap moment, right? Wrong. Forgettable.
June 12, 200817 yr Member Week of 6/2-6/6: Households: AMC/OLTL/GH RISE; DAYS/Y&R/B&B SLIP; ATWT/GL -- NO CHANGE Y&R 3.5 12 (-1) B&B 2.6 9 (-1) GH 2.3 7 (+1) AMC 2.2 7 (+1) OLTL 2.2 7 (+1) ATWT 1.9 6 (same) DAYS 1.8 6 (-2) GL 1.5 5 (same) These are the HHs. No time to post the rest. TOUPS will do that soon, I'm sure.
June 12, 200817 yr Member Ugh! It doesnt look like there is going to be much change among HH based on these ratings
June 12, 200817 yr Member If GL really got a 1.5 in HH, they didn't stay the same but went down .1 to a new all-time low. They got 1.6 last week and that was a new all-time low.

No time to post the rest. TOUPS will do that soon, I'm sure. Wow..good for OLTL. I agree it's not flawless, and I have never watched regularly. However, I've watched this week and it's better than anything else, with B&B in a second place for me. The rest of daytime...ho hum. Sad to see Days finally lose it's February bump, but I saw it coming. Good News....Corday will blame Higley and we may have a new writer by November...We'll see.

June 12, 200817 yr Member I guess the Best Of the 80s are doing it for OLTL. I think once B&B get away from Katie death bed & keep her away from Nick their ratings can spike a little.
June 12, 200817 yr Member If these are the ratings..thats a new low for GL. They were at a 1.6 last week.These are the ratings, but I typed GL's incorrectly. GL pulled a 1.6 and 5 share, same as the prvious week. My apologies!
June 12, 200817 yr Member B&B isn't doing itself any favors with this painfully dull Nick/Katie romance being the only storyline featured at the moment. Bring back the trashiness of Rick and Taylor with nuStephanie Brooke gasping in horror.
June 12, 200817 yr Member Let's see Goutman...ummmmm Luke and Noah are no longer a draw to the show. Liberty/Juicy Janet(what an awful name)/Brad/Katie isnt working or drawing anyone new. That frankly nobody cares a [!@#$%^&*] about. Paul/Meg/Cole/Mike/Sofie isnt working. It a pathetick [!@#$%^&*] storyline. That frankly nobody cares about. Hmmm..no wonder ATWT numbers are in the [!@#$%^&*]!!! I guess it's time for Corday to come up with a new plan to save Days?? GL....truly deserved numbers...the show sucks balls.
June 12, 200817 yr Member Looks like Y&R has found a new home in the mid-3s. Will be interesting to see if any of the dailies came close to touching the 3.0 mark. I'm shocked that the AMC momentum has continued. Pretty ironic, considering this is B&E's swan song. What's going on at Days? Haven't watched in a while. Poor P&G shows. ATWT always finds a way of bringing itself up, but GL is seriously just a lost cause.
June 12, 200817 yr Member QUOTE (Chris B @ Jun 12 2008, 02:52 PM) B&B isn't doing itself any favors with this painfully dull Nick/Katie romance being the only storyline featured at the moment. Bring back the trashiness of Rick and Taylor with nuStephanie Brooke gasping in horror. B&B is boring as [!@#$%^&*]!! The whole CBS lineup needs a major overhaul.
