[alwaysAMC]

Looks like ATWT was the only soap to go up - everyone else went down or stayed the same. What's up with GH's numbers?? They really fluctuate throughout the week...AMC and Days both beat and/or tied GH for 2 days, yet GH managed 3.0's 2 days as well. Interesting...

[FanSoAp07]

Are these accurate?

[Hartless]

Go ATWT!

I'm hoping the babyswitch reveal helped them rise.

[anita30]

Hehe Bring on Nick and Phyllis Congrats to Y and R. They are truely the reason I am watching this show.

[Soapsuds]

Yes, Fansoap.

I agree. It looks like it got a +.1 rating increase.

[WTGH]

Going by the dailies, ATWT will be third in overall ratings.

YAY!!!!

[Soapsuds]

Yes, it will it looks like it.

[FanSoAp07]

Why are you rolling your eyes? I wanted PSNS to be higher LOL!

[Soapsuds]

I got a 3.4 for B&B Rugrat. I must have calculated their numbers wrong.

Because you asked if the numbers were accurate. Allawitter has so far been accurate with the daily postings. Thanks Allawitter for the quick day to day ratings. I too wish ATWT would have been higher. I think they should have waited until January for the reveal of Jenn's baby. That is when the higher numbers for soaps happen. December is usually a lower ratings time. But at the end of December and January the ratings go up higher. But still an increase is good but it was huge week for ATWT would have liked higher numbers for them.

[Angela]

No, I did, let me change it.

[Kwing42]

Crap...GL most likely held steady...thats the final nail in the coffin

Shows over!

[Soapsuds]

Yes it is...drop GL drop!
