Sad that all those viewers tuned in yet there was no call to action mobilizing viewers to follow the show in January at http://theonlinenetwork.com/

Very true--it's too bad there was honestly no feasible way to start the online episodes the following week to try to capture *some* of the momentum.

-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).

Tina going over the waterfall hit #1 for sure and I think Clint/Viki in the Wild West did too once. But by the time Rauch left, OLTL had fallen out of contention. Malone/Gottlieb's did manage surge OLTL back to #3 a few weeks in 1994.

Nice to see AMC finale surge so high.

Sorry Eric but I highly doubt that the ones that returned would have gone online to watch it. I think what will happen is the ones who watched regulary wont be waiting to see it online in January ..especially if they dont know about it.

Very nice ratings for AMC finale! And my HH prediction was right.

Go 'head All My Children! GO 'HEAD!

I expect the numbers to be big. I wouldn't be surprised if the week average was as high as 2.8/2.9 million, maybe more. I think the last episode, however, could have been 3.5+

Who's the man? I. IS. THE. MAN!

Oh by no means did I mean, or think, that even half or a quarter of the returned fans would continue on--but I do think *some* of them would--and hopefully will. And at this point every extra viewer for the online venture really does matter.

Yeah, while some longtime fans still dislike what Gottlieb did to OLTL, I definitely get why ABC told her that what they wanted was a complete house cleaning. It seems like they brought in DePriest briefly to try to restructure the show, the way she came in to AMC in '89 to do the same, but it wasn't catching.

Is 2.99 million the week average? If so, then I'm freakin' psychic. Somebody call Raven-Symone.

Rest of the numbers coming soon.

Thanks Toups

Interesting that GL and AMC both generally got the same amount of uptics in viewers at the end while ATWT and Passions did zip for the most part

How did OLTL do in viewers? did it go up again?

Unfortunately, OLTL lost viewers in the week before AMC's last week:

9/12-16/11

I'm almost positive it got a boost as the lead-out from AMC's finale episodes but that's JMO.

How will OLTL do now that it's famous (notorious?) as the campy soap between The Spew and GH?

When can ABC's O&O's start asking to have The Chew's hour back to air more profitable programming like reruns of statue dedications, State Fair giant produce competitions and past holiday/sports victory parades?

Ratings: All My Children’s Final Week

Looks like it

BTW, based on averaging AMC's finale did 3.5 million viewers. Just thought that should be clear to everyone.

There was a writers strike during the Old West storyline. ES has talked about TPTB having to stretch it out (using Miss Ginny who had become very popular) beyond its planned end-date. It was exhausting for her. I think the next writers strike (when Tomlin was the HW) screwed up RC's initial storylines and he was never able to recover from that. JMO.

Yay! I'm so glad! What a terrific way to go out
