There you are! I was genuinely getting worried. You're usually one of the first posts. Regarding the demos, I have no idea. I'm not digging OLTL right now because all the characters are involved in their own little stories. I always like OLTL more when there are two or three majors plots going on that involve many characters. Anywho...

Those are terrible numbers. I think ATWT, Days and Y&R all tied their ratings lows and BB just hit a new low.

I posted something on his facebook for his hatred of AMC (I know, I know) and he admitted it was the one soap he had zero history with. (This was after he said how bad it was Adam would be written out with a note about Palmer cuz they had no history :S What an idiot)

It would be one thing if it was just his lack of history but he seems to believe that any success AMC has comes at OLTL's expense so he's fostered this "with us or against us" mentality that just isn't valid. For example, he whines about OLTL's lack of promotion but ABC promoted the hell out of that wretched musical. So who's to blame now? Not his precious Ron. Anyway...

What the hell has happened with CBS?!

How silly to just not even discuss AMC's ratings. Like it or not AMC is probably going to outlast OLTL, as that's what ABC seems to want, and for all the talk of choosing one over the other, if OLTL goes it probably wouldn't have had that much to do with AMC anyway, it's just ABC getting rid of their soaps. Where OLTL goes AMC will likely soon follow, like NBC with AW and Sunset Beach.

It's nice to see the endless hype crashing yet again for Y&R. I guess pointless stunt casting like 30 year old Abby as Paris Hilton and the vile Bacteria are not enough to keep ratings up. If the ratings go up even .1 for the next week I'm sure they will think it's all down to Adam :rolleyes:

LOLLL us OLTL fans have to stick together to save it! :)

Me neither. Better writing wont get this show better ratings. Better actors would. They do have some good actors but majority are bad. Susan Lucci really isnt that great of an actress. Shes been on AMC for 40 years and only won one Daytime Emmy while Erika Slezak and Tony Geary have won 6 and on OLTL and GH not as long as her. Thats just sad.

    • The Duprees not having any staff is a bugbear for me. They've included the background staff at the Country Club but no one at the Dupree home. Even just an extra bringing in a tray of food/drinks or responding to a request from Anita would suffice.
    • 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.
