I can see why AMC is being canceled but OLTL numbers seem to be in an upswing. It reminds me of ATWT during its cancellation.

Days numbers are dreadful and so are B&Bs.

[Cheap21]

B&B got its lowest ratings in the key demos? Good! Last week was SOOOOO nasty and sleazy. B&B was at its most disgusting point in a long time and none of that was entertaining.

[wingwalker]

I agree. B&B was so horrible last week, that drop was much deserved.

[Soapsuds]

What happened last week on B&B??

I hadnt realized how bad Y&R and B&B have dropped from last year. Y&R close to a million viewers lost...ouch!!

Someone at CBS must be smiling...Les anyone

[dowwwe]

DAYS has poor ratings because the writing is bad... it's that simple. The same five characters (Sami, Rafe, EJ, Nicole, and Taylor) take up so much of every episode and it's been that way since the Fall. The ridiculousness of the Imposter Rafe storyline and how worn out the love triangles amongst those five have become is the reason for the record lows the show has been doing.

Why is OLTL going off the air?

[MichaelGL]

Interesting....OLTL seemingly has higher demos than B&B lol! Why are they on air????

[Kryptonite]

WOW! That's so strange OLTL is growing in viewership and its getting canceled? The cancellation decision had to been an old decision made a couple of years ago.

Les hates soaps and I remember him being happy about ATWT's cancellation. I have no idea why CBS still airs soaps if they don't want them. Like people have been saying lately B&B needs to find a new home before 2013 gets here. Their doing too well overseas to be worried about staying on CBS.

It was atrociously disgusting last week with Amber slutting her way into seducing Liam. It was just...weird, strange, & inappropriate all rolled into one. Amber's GROSS dialogue was the worst. I don't blame viewers for tuning out...it was bad. But it's been pretty good this week.

Poor OLTL

[Carolyn1980]

OLTL also has higher demos than DAYS. It's number three in all key demos, after Y&R and GH, and within a tenth of point of GH in both 18-49 and 18-34....and only 100,000 less in women 18-49 viewers, yet 200,000 more than both AMC and B&B, and 100,000 more than DAYS.

And it got cancelled.

Talk about bad business.

Amber had sex with Liam. The scenes were really more revolting than it sounded. Then we had her gushing to Oliver over the phone about her sexcapades and then in another episode she and her trashy mother, Twny were trading notes and bragging about how skanky she was and how they are using it to gold dig. Amber even tried to go for a round two by attempting to seduce Liam again. It was all just so sleazy

[Carolyn1980]

Yeah, I said before I don't have a horse in this race since I haven't watched either AMC or OLTL in many years, but it is actually pissing me off looking at these ratings, lol. You have this cast/crew working hard to do well for ABC...and turns out they actually HAVE....and they get dumped despite having higher demos than most of the shows still on the air--the unowned shows on other networks.

This may be the first time I've ever seen a soap get canceled in daytime with higher demos than other shows that remain.

[OLTL_fan]

Im truly pissed off.

OLTL was good last week!

[oltl1]

ROCK ON OLTL! I hope the show continues to grow to show just how stupid Mr. Frons is
