I live for Toups and the Thursday ratings release :lol:

I keep hoping this turnaround in the storytelling at GL is going to pop it back up to at least a 1.9 or 2.0 - maybe next week if the momentum continues? This week has seen some of the best eppies of GL in quite some time!

I'm just wondering - is there a reason why the release of the ratings have been delayed these past few weeks? I remember when they used to be posted on Thursday afternoons around 1 pm EST.

Is this the norm now - that the ratings are released at different times every week? Again, just wondering. ;)

The ratings are still released at the normal times except for holidays. The thing is that unless you have a direct source to the ratings you have to wait for them. That is what Toups means when He says he will post them when he gets them. He is relying on a secondary source for the ratings.

There are very few people that bother with even getting the daytime ratings. The cost is so high to get access to them - so you are just at the mercy of someone who will share them with you.

Cost.

Nielsen has to pay their employees somehow so they charge people for access to the ratings. It is not like it is a news thing. They do this as a service for advertisers and the like. So they charge.

when I checked last year for access to the ratings for my site SoapsWEB - just for the basic HH and Viewers ratings alone it was almost $20,000 a year to have access to those numbers and they want you to sign a contract - making you responsible even you back out during the year.

They charge websites and the like the same price as they would charge a TV show to access them.

Toups isn't getting the ratings until next week. I wonder where SOAPSFOREVER is? He/She usually has the HH numbers. Where is Lskreet? She also has the HH number.

Most of the soaps have had their best days of the year these past two weeks. For CBS Soaps next week will be really interesting since every soap was pretty strong including the wild Y&R ender today, B&B has been favorite soap since May when Storm died, ATWT has been very diversed with an interesting upcoming s/l featuring Liberty, and GL simply having its best week of the year writing wise.

ABC Soaps have been pretty good too, but NBC is missing Hogan Sheffer way too much over there.

    • They've talked about having staff at the Dupree house, like Rowena the chef. I just don't think we've seen them.  
    • Really an excellent point. I'm worried about Derek but he's not working. The Duprees being too good somehow ... well, if they say it instead of be it, okay yes, I would worry but as long as they keep on being good, geeze, that's something to celebrate, not worry!!!  Party on?!
    • I blame Mitch.

    • I agree. For now. I am sure in a year's time...a new family (or old) will start to appear on the show. 
    • There's some irony in Philip being forgiven, because it forces everyone to admit that Victor was wrong to change his will.  Everyone, eventually including Xander, (I presume), seems to think it was wrong for Victor to divide his estate in Xander's favor.  I appreciated Stephanie forgiving Philip, because she's got no skin in that game.  But, Belle's line about Philip missing Xander because he misses Bo did not ring true.  I think Philip would be sad if Bo dies, but I think he's more concerned currently about Xander. I am enjoying this EJ mystery so much that I am hereby taking a vow not to read spoilers.  I am also vowing — for the last time — to stop harping on this, but: the concept of a “sepsis treatment” remains absurd. Hospitals prevent sepsis through vigilant infection control; once sepsis sets in, it causes multiple organ failures. Treatment involves supporting each failing organ individually. The notion that a single medication could magically reverse organ failure is medically laughable. However, I like the contrast of Kim going through cancer, which is incurable in their universe.  Kayla's comment on the health of both of her siblings was both heartbreaking and an interesting twist.  MBE is also totally underrated.  She is carrying the weight of so many stories.   And, I like the use of Kayla as an audience surrogate.  She's arguably the most "real" person in Salem. Kayla isn't psychic, she wasn't SORASed, she's not a billionaire, and she doesn't have a bionic eye.  So, I enjoy that we get her perspective of the nuttiness that surrounds her. However, I don't get what gives her the authority to turn down EJ's offer.  I understand that they need a hospital figurehead to show us scenes of the competition to buy the hospital.  But, unless the entire administration has been let go, the Chief of Staff wouldn't make those choices.
    • But why worry about something that might not happen? Right now, most things revolve around the Duprees. We have no idea if or how long that will continue. For now, it's working.
    • The Duprees not having any staff is a bugbear for me. They've included the background staff at the Country Club but no one at the Dupree home. Even just an extra bringing in a tray of food/drinks or responding to a request from Anita would suffice.
    • Shut up, Dante and Lois.  I actually don't mind this particular soap trope, but in the context of this storyline, it just feels forced and unnecessary. If anything, this Dante/Gio tension needed to begin months ago. Plus, this storyline, in general, isn't doing Lois any favors either.  Emma comforting Gio was really sweet though. It's definitely time for the two of them to have their first kiss. And, Joss playing Secret Agent Barbie will just never work.
