[Brady_fan]

Days deserve to go up i hope they will reach a 2.1 or more

[DRW50]

I guess whatever gimmick GH is doing is working slightly.

AMC's ratings are embarrassing. A move to LA isn't going to stop the rot.

That's good for GL, even if it's too late.

[Greg's GL]

That is good for GL. Perhaps people are starting to tune in for the swan song. Starting Monday, I'll probably start DVRing regular again.

[Toups]

Same here. I'm gonna watch the last 3 weeks.

[Soapsuds]

I was hoping ATWT would go up. Glad it went up in Total Viewers. At least it didnt drop in HH's or Total Viewers.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

Well, Y&R deserves being in the 3.4 territory, that's all I can say. And if spoilers are true, the show is heading down the same path content wise for the upcoming fall. I expect Y&R's ratings to get worse over the next few months. Remember when the show was closer to a 4.0 early in the year?

These ratings overall suck though...

[Greg's GL]

So sad.

You should stop by the GL discussion thread sometime, Toups.

[Toups]

True the ratings aren't that great, but Y&R's viewership still has the potential to reach over 5 million viewers. And they're still getting over 1 million viewers in 18-49 and they're not in danger of losing that demo rating or viewers.

[dm.]

That's a nasty fall for Y&R from the beginning to the end of the week. But they deserve it.

[Y&RWorldTurner]

I think they're too ahead of the other soaps to lose it outright, but there is an erosion in the ratings. Y&R is headed back to the territory MAB's initial first few months sank it to in the ratings.

The Scobby storyine was front and center last week, while content doesn't always translate into ratings, I think many are just fed up with the overall crappy state Y&R's in right now. It looks like that could possibly be a factor in the show going from being close to a 4.0 earlier in the year to where it is now.

[Soapsuds]

Lost a whole .5 rating point from Monday to Friday.

[DRW50]

Ouch.

[dragonflies]

AMC is tying with ATWT, and these are the ratings that will probably get ATWT cancelled. All that's left is for Pratt to just throw the dirt on the coffin.

The move to LA is gonna buy them some time and nothing more. I'd be surprised if the show lasts a year after the move

[Jonathan]

And it's your namesake that's partly the reason for this ratings decline. Garbage couple, monopolizing way too much screen time. Sorry, nothing personal. I just hate them.
