Members NYC123 Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 For some reason I think OLTL will get between 3-3.5 millions as well. The ONLY disadvantage they have is the fact that once they end they will be right back up. So it's not going to be much of a cliffhanger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 Those were the days I still remember I used to buy a few SODs each year, and around '95 or so I was SHOCKED to see AMC was no longer number two, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 A lot of people forget that if we were to average up the yearly ratings of the 90's, AMC would be the #2 rated soap of the decade behind Y&R. A lot assume it's DAYS, since they had that big surge in the mid 90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members EricMontreal22 Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 I knew GL was low rated, but I had no idea it was pulling in 1.5s etc before its final week. Wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 Thanks aMLC, I'm looking at Jason47's archives. You're right, DAYS lost the strong-hold in late 1998. A little over 3 years in the #2 slot in the 1990s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 Several soap books that are fairly reliable (Schemering's Encyclopedia, etc) said that the week of Karen's testimony (which was in '79) it climbed to number one. (It had climbed to number two for the first time in late '78 according to the same sources during the start of the story that set off the trial). Not bad considering that OLTL started off relatively well, but by the mid 70s kinda settled in the middle/lower range. After that trial for a while it was always in the top 3, till a brief drop around '83 when the show went through that weird, brief, writer merry go round--and under Rauch moved back up to constantly being in the top 3, sometimes above AMC, until the downfall of the Rauch era. Under the often brilliant Malone/Gottlieb era it did well but was always fairly middle ranked (unfairly). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Angela Posted September 29, 2011 Members Share Posted September 29, 2011 I know somebody was predicting 3 million plus for OLTL... Toups just passed on to me that AMC was the #1 ABC soap for that week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
