[Reddi]

Here's hoping to a boost for AMC this week (fingers crossed).

[Prgirl]

Heres hoping days goes to 1.1 just before it goes off the air in March 2009. The show is so boring. I dont think I will even watch the final shows in March, it wont be any good anyways.

[amazing7]

I'm hoping the complete opposite that AMC's RATINGS will drop to the bottom. The Jerry Springer storyline they wrote for Zach/Bianca/Reese is just plain nasty and disgusting. There is no way long time fans of this show thinks this Torado storyline for the cast was good. It was extremely poor writing for everyone except may JR/Babe. The rest of the show sucks big time and deserves nothing but low, low RATINGS for this trash that they put on my screen these last few days and it's going to get even worst.

[Reddi]

I'm a long time fan, and I think this is great soap. I think individual fanbases who want particular stories for their favs might be upset, but the show overall is looking up. The types of stories Pratt is writing are like old style soap stories (with some modern technology).. the same sorts of conflicts, relationships, etc.

I'm no newbie to AMC.. I first watched in the 70s. I took some time off here and there, but overall I've watched it since childhood.

I think the tornado storyline so far has been outstanding.

[Steven]

LET'S GO DAYS GO UP!!!!!!!!!!!!

This show is just awesome

[alwaysAMC]

I also have been a longtime AMC fan (since 1990) -- and I'm definitely enjoying my soap.

Looks to me like all the die-hard Zendall fans are hurt by this Bianca/Zach thing....but thankfully I don't watch the show for just 2 characters!

[tigger7]

Uh, Bianca fans are hurt too. Not to mention this Jesse/Angie fan who's simply just not feeling their storyline. And let's not forget we've got to endure Rylee/Aidan/Annie. And it seems they still can't really find a storyline for Tad that lasts more than a few weeks.

[marceline]

I love the assumption that all longtiime soap fans want the same thing. I've watched AMC on and off for more than 25 years and I've enjoyed the tornado storyline although it's had some weak spots.

Bianca's story has a lot of people pissed. So does Jesse's. The discussion of the war also upset some people. I'm not bothered by any of it

‘DAYS OF OUR LIVES’ MATCHES A 20-WEEK HIGH IN WOMEN 18-49 AND A NINE-WEEK HIGH IN WOMEN 18-34

Posted on 23 October 2008 by Bill Gorman

via NBCU press release:

‘DAYS’ TIES FOR #2 IN WOMEN 18-49 RATING FOR THE WEEK OF OCT. 13-17

FOR THE SECOND WEEK IN A ROW, ‘DAYS’ TIES FOR #1 IN THE VALUABLE WOMEN 18-34 CATEGORY

BURBANK, Calif. – October 23, 2008 – For the week of October 13-17, NBC’s “Days of our Lives” (1.3 rating, 8 share among women 18-49; 1.0/6 among women 18-34) tied for #2 in the women 18-49 category and tied for #1 in the women 18-34 demographic. This is the second week in a row “Days” has tied for #1 in the valuable women 18-34 category.

“Days” matched its highest women 18-49 rating in 20 weeks (since May 26-30) and matched its highest women 18-34 rating in nine weeks (since August 11-15).

Season to date, “Days” is tied for #3 in the women 18-49 race and tied for #2 among women 18-34.

Ratings reflect “live plus same day” data unless otherwise noted. Season-to-date figures are averages of “live plus seven day” data except for the two most recent weeks, which are “live plus same day.”

[Soapsuds]

So Days tying for second in 18-49 means that GH dropped in the 18-49 demos.

[sonyab1974]

There is no way long time fans of this show thinks this Torado storyline for the cast was good.

===========================================

Oh? That's strange cus I am a long time fan and I love the tornado storyline.

It was extremely poor writing for everyone except may JR/Babe.

===================================

Well that is your opinion. This long time thought the writing was awesome.

[smadleyb]

Whoa! When did this happen? Was this officially announced?

[Angela]

Yeah, there's no way GH got #1 (Y&R did) and GH has been second or tying for second forever, so barring a fall from their home base they probably did the same this week, which would give us this so far:

1.(1) Y&R

2.(3) DAYS 1.3/08 (SAME)

2.(2) GH 1.3/08 (-.1)

[LeClerc]

This long-time AMC fan has been loving the tornado and fall-out.

That said, I'm don't think the ratings will be anything to cheer over. In fact it wouldn't surprise me if AMC went down. I don't think anything can really change things for AMC.
