Members JAS0N47 Posted June 3 Members Share Posted June 3 I just checked the actual newspaper archives to do it, but maybe they are saved somewhere like that as well? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JoeCool Posted June 4 Members Share Posted June 4 All My Children lost about 10 to 15% of its audience after it moved from 1pm to 12:30pm in July 1975. RH took AMC's slot when it debuted and RH was a bomb in the slot. ABC lost more of its audience when RH was at 1 and it was not until AMC went back to 1PM in January 1977 did its ratings recover and eventually in April 1977 AMC went to an hour and ratings increased. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BoldRestless Posted June 4 Members Share Posted June 4 I'm happy to have the opportunity to thank you. That and the SOD recaps are an invaluable resource. What incredible work and it must have taken great time and expense. Deepest appreciation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Manny Posted June 4 Members Share Posted June 4 Wow, thanks a lot!! OMG, look at that now.. AMC number one, huge jumps for ABC in general-- Is that due to summer holidays so kids out of school preferred ABC and CBS/P&G soaps were more for older people? So since no VCR or anything, it had to be one or the other... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted June 4 Members Share Posted June 4 It's just so fascinating to me to see how wildly soaps' ratings fluctuated throughout the '70's. One week, a soap could be in the middle or bottom of the pack; the next, they're practically rivalling ATWT at number one, lol! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
