This should be a very interesting week for the soap ratings. With most soaps going down last week, you can expect this to be an up week and some shows like B&B, which episodes were so emotional and featured traditional s/ls and characters last week. I wouldn't be surprised if B&B got a 2.8 or higher.

The soaps did great in the important demo last week where the soaps make their money from advertisers, so we'll see if they can stabilize those numbers.

Most of the soaps have been great to watch so any soaps going down would be a bad thing.

For real? Wow! 1.5 in 18-49 that´s huge!

I quess Dena, Chris and Gary can read all the b*tching and hating on the MB´s with the same smirk on her face like Melanie, the newest Salem bitch, has. All vets backburnered, two biggest star fired, no so called supercouples together and the show is gaining the right kind of viewers like it´s the most natural thing on earth.

:lol::lol::lol:

I think the Nicole/EJ/Sami story might be gaining the interest of casual Days viewers. This is the main story on the show right now, and is clearly slated to be the "A" story of 2009. If the story is played out correctly over the next 6-8 months (which should be the length of the story at a minimum, given how many natural story-beats are built into it, not to mention all of the close-call reveals), it could build to a decent spike in the ratings. I, for one, am really enjoying the story. But then again, I love long, drawn-out stories that build slowly and naturally to a climax with a dozen-or-so characters involved. For this story you have Nicole, EJ, Sami, Rafe, Lucas, Chloe, Brady and Stefano all orbiting around this main story, with more people to be sucked in as it progresses. Lots of secrets to be revealed, slowly, to various characters on the canvas, all of which will/should take time.

On a side note, I'm also wondering if the spiking unemployment in the country will lead to an increase of people being at home and tuning in, especially over the next 3 months when winter weather will be so prevelant. It'd be ironic if a horrible economy ends up *helping* some soaps...

People keep speculationg about that. Frankly I don't think it will because there are still other things to watch. I don't think people are going to get rid of cable especially since many people use that for internet access. I know some people have gotten rid of their premium channels but that still leaves basic cable and that leaves plenty of options other than soaps.

The story has potential, but pieces need to be moved into places before I can truly enjoy it. Like once Nicole gets busted, "who" is going to be "rewarded"? The Sami/EJ fans? Are they the couple to "root for", if so, why are they setting up Sami/Rafe? I want Nicole to be built up more as a villainess. For this story to work, the bad guy needs to be doing something to keep the couple seperated. So far, they haven't established who that couple is. The structure of the storyline isn't right for me.

The close calls is classic soap and Reilly-ish, so of course I don't mind that. The only thing is I wish they would make it a bit more dramatic, and that's on the director and music direction.

I so want to consult on DAYS!! LOL

    • Cady had a fairly posh accent or manner as Rosanna - the character was a 180 from Dixie when she went to ATWT, and it was a huge success initially. As someone mostly only familiar with the nagging, miserable or clueless Dixie of the mid-late '90s and early 2000s it was what convinced me Cady could act. I thought she was incredible in her first run. Later, in future stints, her hair and story and performances were all over the place but a lot of that was down to the show for me. She brought some of Rosanna back with her to Dixie in her ill-fated return and a lot of people didn't like it, which I understood but I did think the character needed some change. I think she's had a little bit of the same persona and arch performance in every role she's played since, including Jennifer Horton at DAYS or Kelly at Y&R, who later became a maniac and was easily the worst work I've ever seen Cady do. It has kind of infected her overall mannerisms, I'll allow that, but I do think she brought Dixie back together as herself while still evolving the character when she returned to AMC again in 2012-13. Nonetheless, for me the upshot is that this is a character where Cady's kookier recent performance style suits the role. But I can understand it grating for people.
    • Yeah, Loretta Swit's passing stings. My late dad LOVED the show (he died last November) and watched it religiously. In first run and repeats.  And I was literally born the day after the show's premiere, so I grew up with it! I know many loved later, softer Margaret, but I loved Early Hot Lips. In real life, I'm all for less misogyny, but to me, the early years of M*A*S*H were just funnier. May Loretta Swit rest in peace. Thanks for all the memories connected to my dad!

    • I agree that she isn't Dixie or Rosanna and shouldn't be acting like either. I just found it strange that she had a naive Southern character and a wealthy urbane character in the past and didn't experiment with accents before (unless I missed it, correct me if I'm wrong). She used to do improv characters on YouTube. She's probably doing something similar here.

    • And here I thought I'd never think about Lauren Tewes again after her brief appearance in Twin Peaks Season 3.
    • I may be the single person who does not mind Transatlantic Campy Pamela. I think it perfectly suits this sort of Absolutely Fabulous-esque supporting character she's playing much more than it did when Cady tried weird and often broad stuff at AMC* or Y&R, or later stints at ATWT. She's not Dixie and she's not trying to be. I will freely admit some of the other chances she took at other shows often came off stiff, hammy or downright mortifying (Kelly Andrews, come on down). (* - and I say that as one of the few who was somewhat into Cady trying to make Dixie more cosmopolitan in the Rosanna Cabot mold in mid-2000s AMC, just to liven the character up again)
    • There’s absolutely nothing exciting happening storyline wise but I’m always happy to see the vets on my screen so I’ll take what I can get. It’s also just nice to see them all dressed up in the same room, it always gives classic Y&R vibes. The best part? No Phyllis.

    • Well now we had Ashley's reaction-and weren't we all gasping when she appeared to hate it-but she was just joking!! She loved it. Now we have to see Abby's reaction, and maybe Mamie could come back to say she loves it. How about Jill via Zoom giving her opinion (she'll love it) and bring in a day player to play Mrs Martinez to say she loves it also... I feel bad to keep dumping on this show (not really) but when the choices they make are so inane, it's the only entertainment value the show has. Let's unpack the Nikki birthday story. So Claire wants to throw her Nana a birthday bash as away of endearing Kyle to Victor. Don't quite get the logic there,but OK. She hires a party planner who makes ridiculous suggestions. Slightly annoyed that Y&R are hiring someone for this role for 5 episodes when we never see doctors, co- workers etc. But OK to that to. With all the talk we are expecting something special. What we get is the Jazz Lounge hideously decorated with some ugly tablecloths and a few tacky decorations. They needed a planner for this? Then the guest list consists of family members (no grandchildren)and a few others. Hardly a party. As usual the costuming is pretty awful. A red and black theme ? And our guest of honor is sporting a do that looks like a cross between Cameron Diaz in Something about Mary and Marie from Roxette. They should have had an intimate dinner and ditched all the fanfare. Would have been way more believable.
