Beginning next week, I won't be able to post ratings on Thursday afternoons anymore. Ratings will be posted on Friday afternoons.

As for this week's ratings, very happy for DAYS! The show continues to rock!

Toups,

Does that mean if ratings are released on Friday (as they certainly will be next week, with the Labor Day holiday), you won't be able to post them until Monday?

Or is it just that you won't be able to post on Thursdays, but you'll post them on Friday whether they're released on Thursday or Friday?

Thanks :)

GL may be able to beat AMC for their last week on the air.

I'd love to say these aren't ratings/numbers AMC deserves, but I can't. I will say, deserved or not, I hate seeing the numbers so low.

DAYS has their little engine on their, hopefully they can maintain it long enough to get an extension wuth NBC.

Nice job by Days. Hopefully, this rebound is the start of an upwards trend.

Ugh, OLTL and AMC. The move cannot come soon enough. These soaps have to become cheaper to produce if they are going to stay on the air. There is a rumor than Frons asked Valenti to cut OLTL's budget by 20%. I am sure that Frons has asked Phelps and Carruthers to do the same. We'll have to see how the budget cuts play out on our screens.

GH is treading water in the 18-49 women demo. ABC must be pleased. I look forward to seeing next weeks' ratings from the carnival stunt.

Nice to see ATWT go up in total viewers and at #5 in total viewers. Also good to see a 1.9 and 1.8's for the week. I can't believe I am saying that...LOL...but compared to the 1.7...1.6's and even some 1.5's...it's better. I guess feature more vets gets you higher household numbers..and possible high ratings.

Wow at DAYS! I know they usually go back down after a gain but they are still the comeback story of the year.

I wish OLTL were doing better. I am torn between thinking the ABC soaps, especially those which are not GH (the golden goose for Frons), will never improve in ratings, and thinking OLTL would improve if they finally realized how disgusting the constant canonizing of men like Todd and Rex and the endless Stacy coverage is for some viewers.

Frons will probably say it's because of Kyle and Fish, or because of those icky older people.

    • 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.
