Members Ann_SS Posted February 12, 2010 Members Share Posted February 12, 2010 I used to think that Guza's sweeps stunts were running out of steam, but the old dog still has some life in him yet. Exactly. The advertisers will be squealing at those demos. Agreed. Guza pushed the Jason/Franco and Lucky/Liz/Nik stories hard and got no return. If the Sonny/Dante story can keep GH above 1.4 in the 18 to 49 women demo for the rest of February sweeps, then it is an unqualified success. Edited to change November to February.

Members Mr. Vixen Posted February 12, 2010 Members Share Posted February 12, 2010 I am glad GH has a great week. Even though I hate Sonny, something about this storyline has kept me watching, and not drifting out during the Sonny scenes like I usually do!

Members DAYS Posted February 13, 2010 Members Share Posted February 13, 2010 I think Nielsens Ratings really need to combine with Soapnet ratings, it will be a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members metsfan5 Posted February 13, 2010 Members Share Posted February 13, 2010 I still try and figure out why people say OLT is the best show people aren't watching! Watch the sweeps and you will understand! I'm so ready for this Rex/Gigi/Stacy/Sky crap to be over with! One of the worst ever! They made Charlie shot Jess! Sorry hard to watch!

Members AS THE WORLD TURNS Posted February 13, 2010 Members Share Posted February 13, 2010 Yeah it would but it won't be fair to both B&B and ATWT cause they both don't air on Soapnet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members skiman12082004 Posted February 13, 2010 Members Share Posted February 13, 2010 Days had a great Friday episode. I hope they beat B&B for second very soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Melroser Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 Didn't ABC soaps get pre-empted in the DC area because of storms and aired in overnight hours? I wonder why GH had such a huge increase but didn't seem to help pull AMC/OL with it at all. Was GH pre-empted less, and therefore had it's regular viewership in place? Yes, I am an OL fan and therefore probably biased, but i truly thought OL was good enough to increase over the week before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 I think OLTL deserves a ratings increase, and I hope it's not too late for one. I think that the main way they might get one is if they make it clear to viewers that some of their current "stars" will be receiving less airtime, or leaving altogether. I'm sure someone at ABC may think, "Hey, Dorian in a major story brings the ratings down, get the axe," but I think that less focus on the Rex/Gigi stuff would help, or at least more focus on a new storyline. As it is I think some of the current stories and the general mood of the show might alienate people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members miche Posted February 14, 2010 Members Share Posted February 14, 2010 According to Steve Burton "They focus on focus groups done every 3 months & the people who have the most airtime are apparently the ones who've tested the best". I wondered why he never fail one of these focus group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AS THE WORLD TURNS Posted February 15, 2010 Members Share Posted February 15, 2010 Yeah it was pre-empted last week not the week of these ratings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cyberologist Posted February 17, 2010 Members Share Posted February 17, 2010 Thanks Angela now I get it.... I agree about Elizabeth triangle I haven't been able to watch them throw my girl under the bus back up and re-run over her. Its horrible. I still can't get why Guza's masterpiece Franco flopped; I really thought it would have been better received. For me I thought it would be more of him being romantic lead instead of a wacko Psycho path obsessing over Jason Morgan, that part was a huge turn off. I only saw him in one romantic tryst with Gillean (his agent) and she played minimal to non existent in the storyline...just wall paper, I was very disappointed. They could have done more with her after Franco left to extend the storyline. When Franco blew up that was it..end of story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
