[Brady_fan]

where are the ratings

[Toups]

They'll NEVER be posted now.

[brwnsugar33]

Please Toups , don't hold out on the ratings.

[Jonathan]

I guess Nelson Branco is going to have to get his ratings from somewhere else now.

[DRW50]

Too bad about OLTL. It should be above the other ABC soaps.

I know the ratings never really change but I hope ATWT keeps going up, I think it's improved lately.

[Jane1978]

This was the first Olympic week for DAYS last year, right? That´s why the ratings were so much better.

Still, not bad. DAYS as an absolut must see soap now, IMO, so it´s good people noticed. I hope next week we will get back in 2´s. The show really deserves it.

[Faulkner]

Yikes @ those 1.6 Fridays for AMC and OLTL.

[Toups]

Yeah, it was Olympic week last year - that's why DAYS was so high.

I agree and I hope so too. I just hope ratings don't fall further because Corday is known to panic and I'm afraid he's going to do something stupid to ruin Tomlin's momentum.

[rhinohide]

Hey Toups. Thanks for the ratings. I have to laugh at how much our definition of "decent" has transformed. I just keep remembering that GL had to sustain 1.8 to avoid cancellation. I would kill somebody to know how they arrived at that number because I'm sure it wasn't plucked out of thin air. It had to constitute some sort of breakeven, or minimum financial threshhold to justify profit objectives.

[Carolyn1980]

That was definitely a myth, the "1.8 threshold." Total viewers, households, teens, 18-34....none of that matters. The networks sell their ads in daytime based solely on the 18-49 demo. And in that demo, the "threshold" for cancellation would vary by show, and by network. ABC's could probably drop the lowest in that demo and still be sustainable since they own them and could make their own budget cuts.

[Soapsuds]

Glad to see ATWT go up. I was hoping for a 1.8 but considering last week was the best week in a long time. I can see some still not watching. At least the numbers were solid down the board with 1.7 and viewers going up and Friday's numbers up too for Holden's accident. This week has been another good week. Maybe ATWT will go up another point next week.

[Cyberologist]

Thank you so much for stacking them up day by day, I don't know how you do this but

it really is informative.

Did Victor's dog Zapato death /funeral occur this week?

Wow look at the difference in their gains.....

[trish672]

Wow. Its a shame that these ratings are considered decent these days. Haven't watched soaps in awhile but quality must be really terrible if random Kardashians are able to rack up more viewers.
