Members Reddi Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Doesn't look good for AMC. I'm disappointed. Sometimes I wonder what moving AMC up to 12:30 would do... head to head with Y/R but also it would have a strong lead in (local news). Don't know what usually runs before it in most markets.. in mine there is a half hour of "Millionare" before AMC. OLTL is beating it? That boggles the mind.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 ATWT is the only soap that went up, while others stayed the same? WOW, the genre is dying ratings-wise. Thanks, Lskreet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NYC123 Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Thanks Lskreet. Still horrible numbers even though none dropped. I was hoping AMC would get a bump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JaneAusten Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Wow what's going on with Y&R. The show has really improved(yeah I know ratings and quality don't go hand in hand), Did Y&R not promo their sweeps with all the material shot in Paris?

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Yeah I know, CBS should've given it the same promotion they gave the "Sudden Impact" event. This is the best Y&R's been in a few years, but as you mentioned, ratings and quality don't go hand and hand. The soap audience just isn't there in daytime anymore. People are DVR-ing, taping, watching SoapNet, watching it online, or not watching anymore at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Y&R is the best it's been in many years. CBS should be shot for not promoting it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Reddi Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 I was hoping AMC would get a bump as well, but at least it's holding steady. I'm curious to see what the daily numbers are. As far as Y/R, the Marge/Kaye story is good, but much of the rest is pretty pitiful. It unravelled during the strike and is not really better now, imo. I began to despise Victor and all his abusive ways, and the fact they treat him as a victim who needs wuv just makes me want to puke (and tune out). Maybe others feel the same way. JMO.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Didn't you start watching during the LML era, and for the character of David Chow (who was never well received)? Victor has always been that way, except for the year LML made him trippy and best friends with Jack. I don't see how the character could turn people off by being how he's been for years. Y&R unraveled to many during LML's tenure. At least now, IMO, the characters are acting like themselves again, we're not getting stupid reliquary stories, women falling off CGI cliffs, horrible PSA's for storylines, and rushed couplings. The fact that ratings are low, is probably more do to the ratings for daytime overall and the fact that Y&R is now the most widely available soap opera in the US.

Members DaytimeFan Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Anyone who doesn't see how Y&R has improved over LML HELL is out of their minds in my opinion. The ratings for Y&R probably do have a bit to do with how widely available the show is. Viewers KNOW they can miss it on CBS because they can see it in a slew of other avenues. I do hope that the numbers will rebound a bit, they deserve too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
