I first started watching soaps 2 years ago. I watched AMC, OLTL, and GH every day and tried to watch DOOL, ATWT, The Bold and the Beautiful (when Sarah Brown) joined. I also tried to watch The Young and the Restless sometimes. I found that AMC, OLTL, GH, and DOOL all had short scenes and lots of action. They were very suspenseful. The Young and the Restless seemed to have longer scenes. The scenes were not action- packed. They were characters conversating and sometimes arguing. I found this boring. I started paying attention to the ratings. Y&R was always first. B&B was always second. Then it was normally DOOL, GH, AMC, OLTL, and ATWT. OLTL and ATWT would sometimes switch places for last. I began to notice that AMC, GH, and DOOL started to get more like the Young and the Restless. There was less stuff like Carly shooting Melanie, Claudia trying to get pregnant by Dante, Annie defending herself in court. I started noticing these changes when AMC went HD. I know a lot of people embraced the new writer but I liked it a lot more before. The only soap that has stayed the same is OLTL. Its definitely gone back to its roots- so its changed in that regard. But it still has the spunk that I liked about it when I started watching. Once ATWT was cancelled, I expected OLTL to stay at the bottom of the ratings, but it soon surpassed AMC. Now it has also surpassed DOOL and GH. I feel that while the other soaps started to emulate the Young and the Restless, viewers didn't like it. Who ever thought OLTL would raise to #3? I know the 2 Todds is playing its part, but I feel that the other soaps changing their style did as well.

My 2 cents

[aMLCproduction]

You ought to try watching Y&R now. It's moves much faster these days and lots more of senseless actions

[Toups]

Damn! OLTL didn't beat B&B or hit 3 million viewers. But they did hit a 2.75 year high with 2.9 million and has 400,000 more viewers than both AMC/GH.

[Soapsuds]

Well that is good. I dont think the porn story helped their cause. The only story getting them these numbers are the Two Todds. I am sure OLTL will be down next week with the preemptions and not being as good.

[Eric83]

That is so awesome. OLTL is on fire right now in the ratings, isn't this the fourth straight week they have gained in viewers?

It would have been awesome if this story helped them beat suck-tastic B&B.

[OLTL_fan]

The last time OLTL hit 2.9 million viewers was the week of the rapemance reveal and Bess switched the babies. So happy for OLTL!

[Soapsuds]

Did OLTL stay at 1.9?? I doubt they hit 2.0.

[Gina90]

Toups

good week for AMC & GH?

[JaneAusten]

Just curious Toups not that it matters I guess but was that 2.9 the weekly average or a high for one day of the week?

[Eric83]

It's the weekly average because they hit 3 million in viewers on Monday 7/25 and Friday 7/29.

[fanOLTL]

Happy for OLTL. Some of the this momentum will likely carry into next week's ratings. (If I understand this correctly, this is the week that ended with the DNA reveal. The result was revealed on Monday's show.) This week's ratings will likely dip some, but still should be fairly good.

[Toups]

These comparison just get more ridiculous. Monday's differences is utterly insane.

OLTL:

Monday: 554,000 more than AMC, 663,000 more than GH

Tuesday: 333,000 more than AMC, 472,000 more than GH

Wednesday: 329,000 more than AMC, 71,000 more than GH

Thursday: 429,000 more than AMC, 393,000 more than GH

Friday: 353,000 more than AMC, 441,00 more than GH

[Eric83]

[OLTL_fan]

Yes OLTL hit a 2.0. Wow at Monday! Glad GH went up in key demo and so did AMC.

Good week for B&B. Good week for all except DAYS.
