Members Carolyn1980 Posted April 29, 2011 Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 OLTL is only 23,000 under GH in women 18-49 viewers, a virtual tie, yet GH remains on the air. (If OLTL had 4,000 more viewers in that category, it would've tied GH at a 1.1 in that demo). 363,000-428,000-----------> .06 429,000-488,000-----------> .07 489,000-561,000-----------> .08 562,000-627,000-----------> .09 628,000-693,000-----------> 1.0 694,000-758,000-----------> 1.1 759,000-825,000-----------> 1.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted April 29, 2011 Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 I think both soaps are going to increase before they go off the air just like ATWT did. Those soaps still had the audience only if someone would have given a damn. GL was too gone for the viewers to return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted April 29, 2011 Author Administrator Share Posted April 29, 2011 LOL I'm upset because OLTL still has potential while AMC as been dead for a long time. OLTL has proven they're able to go up in the ratings. I hope OLTL rockets up the ratings for the big return in May - a big story has proven to be able to gain ratings.

Members Angela Posted April 29, 2011 Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 Toups Giddens! OLTL's numbers were really lousy last year at this time (HH & Viewers), that's part of the reason they have big year to year gains even on weeks where they dont have numbers as fabulous as this week. Seasons change, although AMC's 18-49 remains weak whatever the year. Happy to see the big HH jump for AMC. Over 500,000 in 18-49 is good after facing those 2 weeks of 400,000+! But, see this is what I mean, even when they have much more viewers than usual their 18-49 tends to remain surprisingly low. The first 2 months of 2010 they were getting 2.8 million viewers but still barely getting out of the bottom half in 18-49 I'm going to credit all the press coverage rather than Easter break for AMC/OLTL's gains. I was looking at the numbers for the past few years - on Easter week - a few days ago and there were both falls and much smaller gains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted April 29, 2011 Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 Was this the week all the cancellation news came out?? OLTL did go up but B&B is on a downslide big time. OLTL really hasnt moved that much HH wise. It is because B&B has fallen so much that OLTL is tied with them and AMC is right behind. Days stable awful numbers are alarming....it's at the bottom of the cellar..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members aMLCproduction Posted April 29, 2011 Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 I agree with Toups. OLTL is truly on an upswing has been for a while. I hope Frons is eating crow right now. OLTL is also closing the gap in demos with GH and also has th e potential to rise in the ratings. I hope SOS really can save OLTL Brad Bell has to be saying WTF about OLTL gaining on him like that. Just goes to show how much trouble B&B is really in. I wonder what he is going to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted April 29, 2011 Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 SS, the cancellation was announced late on Thursday, April 14. It hit all the news on Thursday night and Friday. These ratings are for the first full week after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JaneAusten Posted April 29, 2011 Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 Good for OLTL. It almost reminds me of Days gradual rise a couple of years ago with that baby switch story. I hope they continue on that path. They have a good shot to continue to beat out the competition with the upcoming return and related storyline.

Members Money Posted April 29, 2011 Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 There's absolutely no reason for Toups to be upset if someone has the information and posts it before him considering people are always lurking in anticipation. Thanks for posting them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members aMLCproduction Posted April 29, 2011 Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 Soapsuds is right for once. Days basement ratings are very alarming. Their Demos have tanked as well. This is what week 4 or 5 for them? I do think it's time for some new energy. Now would be the prime time to get a new team to hopefully boost ratings in time for that renewal. But it all maybe just a lost cause anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ATWT_GL_fan Posted April 29, 2011 Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 What are you talking about General Hospital is in 2nd place in the ratings. That is probably why it's still on the air. It did almost got canceled, but ABC gave it one more chance to get it's ratings up. Cause they were going to cancel all 3 ABC soaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Llantano Incorporated Posted April 29, 2011 Members Share Posted April 29, 2011 OLTL's viewership last Friday was particularly impressive. OLTL sucked on Fridays for so long ratings wise, and it beat GH by over 450,000 viewers on Friday nearing 2,900,000! (And AMC wasn't bad at 2,600,000+ also beating GH) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
