Members Broderick Posted June 13, 2023 Members Share Posted June 13, 2023 Gosh, should've remembered that one. They buried Pope Paul VI in August and then had to bury Pope John Paul about 33 days later! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BoldRestless Posted June 13, 2023 Members Share Posted June 13, 2023 To think it ended up that simple after all the speculation about breakouts and repeats, haha. So good to finally know! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAS0N47 Posted June 13, 2023 Members Share Posted June 13, 2023 You're welcome! I mainly wanted the "Days" ratings, but it's nice to also be able to provide the other soap ratings as well, and the extra unexpected benefit is also getting all of the full preemption data for all of the soaps! I didn't even remember when typing it today that you were on the lookout for a YR preemption at some point during this time in 1978. So the mystery is finally solved! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Gray Bunny Posted June 14, 2023 Members Share Posted June 14, 2023 I wonder if this is the last time GL was ever No. 1 (since we now know the much trumpeted "GL hits No. 1 in the Nielsens!" of August 1984 was an error this whole time (they were merely No. 1 in their timeslot, beating GH). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
