Members Soapsuds Posted September 10, 2010 Members Share Posted September 10, 2010 Depends on when Toups gets the ratings. I will go out on a limb and say OLTL will be at the bottom of the ratings again this week. Unless AMC dropped below them. I dont think the Eli story has been a ratings grabber. The whole Nate is my brother i hate him because he took us from mom is lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members skiman12082004 Posted September 10, 2010 Members Share Posted September 10, 2010 AMC has been awesome so I don't see it dropping to last place. I like the Ford Brothers on OLTL and even though I still hold some resentment towards the show for getting rid of most of the characters I liked earlier in the year I don't want it to fall to a 1.5.

Members MontyB Posted September 11, 2010 Members Share Posted September 11, 2010 Did I miss something? Looks like OLTL stayed the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Carolyn1980 Posted September 11, 2010 Members Share Posted September 11, 2010 I think I'll echo Karen's quote from under the ratings news item: "Wow....talk about breathless, misleading, tabloid-y headlines. In households, GH is up 5.4% over last week....but OLTL is also up in that category by 4.7%....not much percentage difference increase. And in women 18-49, GH is up by 3.8%...but OLTL is also up in that demo, by 2.4%. So how is one "spiking," but the other "tanking" when both are up, by percentages that aren't that far apart? Are you working overtime as VMG's PR person now, or something?" I have to agree....what's with the "spin-worthy" headline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OLTL_fan Posted September 11, 2010 Members Share Posted September 11, 2010 Ok the title is misleading. How did OLTL tank? I almost died. LOLL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wingwalker Posted September 11, 2010 Members Share Posted September 11, 2010 I love my tabloidly headlines, but how did OLTL tank? Am I reading the ratings wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted September 11, 2010 Members Share Posted September 11, 2010 DAYS crashed? OLTL tanked? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted September 11, 2010 Webmaster Share Posted September 11, 2010 Look at the overall ratings... While GH and OLTL are both up by over 100,000 viewers week-to-week, OLTL barely increased year-to-year, which is the only way to see if a show is doing well and is just a few viewers above the canceled ATWT. GH, however, gained nearly a quarter of a million viewers from last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted September 11, 2010 Webmaster Share Posted September 11, 2010 DAYS crashed because it was a major turning point in a storyline and the beginning of a new phase in said storyline and they lost viewers year-to-year and week-to-week.

Members marceline Posted September 11, 2010 Members Share Posted September 11, 2010 Errol I have much love for you and you know I enjoy a good OLTL smack but you might want to lay off the Red Bull when you're writing the headlines. LOL! But I agree that the yearly numbers are the ones to look at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MontyB Posted September 11, 2010 Members Share Posted September 11, 2010 I'm not going to argue the point but a show gaining 100,000 viewers from the previous week doesn't sound like it's tanking to me. OLTL tanked in the ratings weeks ago, just doesn't seem like an appropriate headline today. JMO!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wingwalker Posted September 11, 2010 Members Share Posted September 11, 2010 Okay, that makes since, in that case, OLTL been "tanking" for a while now, since they've been generally lower to flat compared to last year for at least the past few months.

Members Carolyn1980 Posted September 11, 2010 Members Share Posted September 11, 2010 Yeah...um...year to year, OLTL is up, by 21,000 in total viewers...while shows you don't say are "tanking", like B&B for instance, are down 116,000 viewers. And in women 18-49, OLTL is down by a mere 19,000, while AMC is down also a relatively small 24,000...but AMC doesn't warrant the "tanking" reference, either. Seriously...if you ever want to be taken seriously as a news site, you might want to chill out on the over-the-top misleading headlines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
