Members fanOLTL Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 I think Carolyn is right that the war is the best soap out there. That's the true problem; if something remotely interesting was actually happening on screen, we'd be talking about that instead of the his back-stage BS. I think OLTL is a complete pile of [!@#$%^&*] right now but it's MY pile of [!@#$%^&*]. I've been watching it since 91 and want the best for it, even when it doesn't deserve it. So I'm happy they got a bump in W 18-49, even if its for a week, and hope that all six shows saw an increase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChiTownBoi03 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 I'm not a regular OLTL viewer, but I have been tuning in to see Kim Zimmer. This Echo character is quite entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MontyB Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 Good for OLTL. I think the last 2 weeks were very good. Okay, it was predictable, but what isn't? Is what it is. The Echo stuff is quite interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kimmiemae Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 I'm glad OLTL had a great week...Soooo disappointed that Days had a bad week. I thought last week Days was pretty good. I don't know. I'm scared NBC is going to cancel Days next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jane1978 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 DOOL is dying. They already started all their big fall stories and it seems not even one caught viewers attention. It´s just more and more people tuning out each week. And with how much they are ahead and how hard is to stear that ship they cannot make any substantial changes atleast till spring, so both sweeps period are already dead for them. Not good when at March should NBC once again decide the show´s fate. The budget is their saving point, but I´m rather not even trying to imagine what more they could cut. And with these terrible and constant falling numbers I have no doubt NBC will not renew them until some more cost cutting is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 If not for some of the posters here and elsewhere who watch and comment on OLTL, and the fantastic Youtube channels which have OLTL goodies of the past, I'm not sure how interested I'd be. I love Dorian and admire Erika Slezak and there are some other good moments here and there, but the show is just a mess and has been for a long time. I know this will seem like a "war" again, and I apologize in advance for that, but I do find it amusing that Kim Zimmer, as polarizing and out of date as she is, and as underpromoted as her return was, might have helped OLTL's ratings more than the endlessly hyped VMG return to GH has helped their ratings.

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 A year or so ago, who would have thought DAYS would be hitting lows and be the lowest rated soap? The show had one of the few significant rises over the last two years, and also probably the biggest fall from grace since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OLTL_fan Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 NBC is having another bad year with their primetime lineup so with that and DAYS going HD, it could get another 1 year renewal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChiTownBoi03 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 Poor DAYS. These ratings aren't promising, but I honestly can't find any difference between this Fall and this past Spring as far as stories go. Its still pretty dull and unimaginative. I'm still kinda hanging on thanks to Soapnet, but nothing is catching my attention enough to tune in daily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 I wonder if the decreasing ratings for Biggest Loser have anything to do with DAYS also sliding down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members skiman12082004 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 Why can't AMC just break that horrible 0.9?????? It is driving me nuts. It so deserves so much better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 So true. Sami and EJ have been in the same story for years, it is so sad. They should have had Arianna and EJ get together months ago, when he was representing her for the muggings. But no, they had to force EJami together just to blow it apart 2 months later. They have tried to make it the A-story, but nobody is interested in seeing two guys fight over Sami Brady of all people, she needs a stable relationship with Rafe, new story, and more character interactions. IMO, the rest of the show is quite good but the pacing for the Chloe saga has been horrible. All of the Kiriakis drama and Hope's prison drama has been okay, but the show is still choppy and boring.

Administrator Toups Posted October 16, 2010 Author Administrator Share Posted October 16, 2010 Kreizman and Swajeski have to be worried. Their contract cycle is coming up in November and show's demos have been horrible for months. DAYS is just boring. At least with OLTL, it's bad, but there's some action (even though it makes no sense LOL) so it's not totally boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 I wonder how much ABC is heavily focused on demos for AMC...they did fire Pratt, who had brought ratings up. I don't think AMC will ever truly go up unless they stop focusing on Rylee and that ilk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted October 16, 2010 Members Share Posted October 16, 2010 Just published Toups ratings. Good week for ABC in Total Viewers. Great week for OLTL overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
