Here's hoping GL continues to maintain its audience!

I hope all the shows go up........... except GH.

[Raven04]

Go DOOL and GL!

[Ann_SS]

The ratings may go down. People are planning their summer vacations. College students were finishing up their exams or packing to head out for the summer.

[Ann_SS]

The View has similar or better demos to the ABC soaps and it costs less to produce. Daytime is a mess.

[ATWT_GL_fan]

It looks like Y&R and B&B went up in women 18-49 same with GH, Days went down in that demo.

[wiccachick_1]

I still want to see all soaps go up!

[ATWT_GL_fan]

Toups when will the ratings be out.

[NYC123]

Even with AMC dropping it is still the #1 ABC soap.

Glad to see Y&R rise! Well deserved

[amazing7]

Yep, by a whole 10,000 more viewers than OLTL and GH. These numbers for AMC are not impressive at all.

[DRW50]

AMC and OLTL are tied in everything. I remember all the years when AMC was one of their crown jewels and OLTL was just the lesser known sister soap. AMC is the one Agnes has always tried to help, if she's allowed to help, and the one with the bigger budget. It's still strange to see them this close. And OLTL isn't that far below GH either.

[Soapsuds]

Nice to see Y&R with a 4.0.

[dragonflies]

Damn barely 14,000 viewers separating AMC and GH, and barely 6,000 viewers separating GH and OLTL
