WOAH!!!!!!!!!

This is the first time in years I seen such a positive rating come from one soap. Look at Thursday and Friday for DAYS. I thought it was a typo. LOL! What a turnaround for that series. That's a message to the rest of the soaps that there is light at the end of the tunnel when you change the whole culture of a soap.

I agree with you guys to the extent that you also have to look at show itself and the state its in. You can't really compare DAYS to AMC right now. DAYS is on a different right now. AMC is in a transition stage right now. Those ratings are still really good for a show that hasn't reached those numbers in a long time.

Well they better thank Kelly Ripa for the promotion cause I thought the anniversary shows especially Tuesday was bad. I am trying to watch right now on SoapNet and the show blows big time. The only character I recognized was Adam. The show is a hot mess. I dont get why it is so high in the ratings. On the other hand I have seen Days and see how it's numbers have improved. B&B I cant take serious. The whole business story I just cant stand it with Don Diamont...lol....dont know why...but I do...lol.

2.6 for Days! Excellent news. all soaps doing better, blame it on the weather but still, it is all good. OLTL should have done better, only 2.0 on Thrusday and Friday...dissapointing...not the best way to start the year for OLTL...do not understand why this show keeps getting these sad numbers

    • Shut up, Dante and Lois.  I actually don't mind this particular soap trope, but in the context of this storyline, it just feels forced and unnecessary. If anything, this Dante/Gio tension needed to begin months ago. Plus, this storyline, in general, isn't doing Lois any favors either.  Emma comforting Gio was really sweet though. It's definitely time for the two of them to have their first kiss. And, Joss playing Secret Agent Barbie will just never work.
    • Note to makeup - Smitty’s eyebrows, bad clamshell look.

    • Okay I can buy that when Brook Lynn was a teen.  Now she knows the child is a boy one would think she'd be slightly suspicious.  Then again, Gio looks nothing like either of them so maybe not lol.
    • I've been behind & just got caught up & the last 3 days were amazing!
    • Yeah.  The hot, poor bad boy with a chip on his shoulder but with a heart of gold was a common soap trope in the 80s

    • That's been an issue with me... the lack of a cohesive 'Have Not' crowd that has focus other than Leslie/Eva.   I would beef up Jan, Mona, Laura, Joey, and few other male characters.. and not just be out to overthrow the Duprees.. but co-existing and broadening the scope of the show since the show is called Beyond the Gates. I think the set up the show has with everything revolving around the Duprees will become predictable especially if they always win.   It would be like Victor Newman on Y & R for 40+ years.. always winning, hardly ever losing.   With MVJ/Guza.. both trained under that mindset... I fear that will happen.   I've always heard from a performer that is playing a character like Leslie/Dana that you have to find the victim/hurt beneath the surface in order to play a villain/villainess... and I think that's why I enjoy watching her.. because she brings so much more to the part than what the writers put on the page.
    • I figure that was really hard for Dom to do. I completely GET why they wrote it the way they did but I wonder if it was necessary. Meanwhile I have 2 really icky ideas in my head. Drew is going to blame Tracy KNOWING it was not her. Dante is going to blame Lulu.  After that, everyone else is going to be mad at Lois.  Tracy is going to double down on wanting to get rid of Sonny. Sonny's going to be more dug in to stay because he now has a new descendant. 
    • I can actually buy Brook Lynn being so self-absorbed and incurious that she never thought to question why her mom and grandma were so attached to Gio. 
    • It was overkill and the whole narrative Lois was too nice to the orphan kid when he was little, WHAT? Like Emma said no one thinks Gio is a troublemaker that gets 14-year-old kids drunk for fun. That being said, Lulu figured this Gio thing out in episode, but Brook Lynn never once questioned Lois and Gloria's attachment to a child that was the same age as the baby she gave up?  Ever?
