There's a part of me that wants OLTL to recover from its 300,000 viewer drop last week and another part of me that wants the show to go even lower for brining FF and Gigi/Stacy back front and center. I still think the show will go back up some. Either way, not expecting any soap to perform very well. The ratings are scary.

I don't know, the ratings seem more and more pointless to me. Before the cancellation announcements, it was kind of fun to watch AMC, Days, OLTL, and GH jockey for those bottom four spots and trying to determine what a ratings bump or decrease meant for their future. With AMC gone, OLTL about to go off, GH most likely gone in 2012 and Days in 2013, for me it's like, what's the point. What are they competing for at this point. I guess I do kind of savor the hilariously bitchy comments at Y&R (deservedly) reaching new lows week after week, but that's about it.

What's the point?

Well, two of those soaps have post-network futures now. Reportedly PP is still trying to score a cable deal. OLTL's demos crashing may adversely affect PP's efforts. AMC surging so high its last week may have helped sway PP's mind to invest more in that soap.

GH's crashing numbers could nix any interest PP has in pursuing licensing that mess.

These numbers still matter to some folks.

Yeah but I can't say I would think PP would all of a sudden think AMC is so much more marketable because of a 1 week uptic for the well publicized ending of it on ABC but I could be wrong. OLTL and its crashing demos I guess well have to see if the numbers level off before declaring OLTL crashing. GH is another story but they likely have more opportunity for an uptic than the others due to their fanbase.

Also, the better the soaps' ratings are, the more we can all laugh when we compare their numbers to the numbers of their successor shows. I want OLTL to succeed just to see ABC weep when they compare The Revolution's numbers this time next year. If OLTL's number are down, it may seem like the cancellation was a good call.

I heard AMC's 1 week uptick proved there was a larger pool of possible AMC viewers than PP expected.

As for OLTL's crashing demos, in August it beat GH in 18-49 one week and scored #1 in the prized #18-34 demo. Over the last 5 weeks OLTL has dropped nearly 175,000 18-49 viewers from their August average. That is a downward trend not a one week hiccup.

We'll have to see if OLTL can bounce back in the demos over the next month and change its trend lines.

OLTL is leaving, and GH will be too. I want to see how low they will drop with the Chew as a lead in and soon the even lamer The Revolution as a lead in for GH.

DAYS is better than before, but still not all that. NBC will probably cancel it 2013.

Y&R... pfft who cares?

I have been watching B&B in and out for about a month, and enjoy it but I'm not really invested.

I don't think that one-week uptick for AMC means anything more than just some lapsed viewers tuning in for nostalgia's sake. Now if they can lure back some big guns like Larry Lau or Kim Delaney,which is unlikely, that may be a different story. Otherwise, I don't think the pool of viewers who'd purposely tune into AMC is that large. Same for OLTL for that matter.

I knew OLTL would crash again. I am not particularly thrilled about Ron going to PP, I think the show could have done well with a new headwriter. The show can never simply sustain its excellence. Its either the best soap going or nearly unwatchable. Sometimes within a week! That being said I have not enjoyed OLTL as much as I did from June until September in years. (And heck, many of you hated it) The over the top madness just worked for me. Must see TV. The storylines right now have come to a crashing thud, but Andrea and John are so worth watching. For every bad actor there is an actor I love. And I really love Cutter and Audrey. I am still extremely excited about the future of OLTL and I get the strong impression that so much of what we are seeing now are hasty rewrites. From what I read, many of the right actors are LEAVING. See ya Kristen! See ya Eddie! See ya Fords! Based on the decent reviews, I have tried to get into Days and I just cannot. I can't stand the look of it and I have no sentimental attachment. I wanted to have some network soap left to watch! I figure Days will maintain its slight growth this week and OLTL MAY have small growth, I figure Days will beat it again.

    • Does anyone know the air dates on these first encounters? Nikki meeting Brittany Nikki meeting Amber Victor meeting Deacon
    • I’m up to August 5, 1996. Another change to the opening music. The hollow whooshing sound is gone and they’ve add a soft rock, synthesizer-style sound to this more upbeat version. Ugh - they let Gilly and Griffin kiss before she found out the truth. So gross, what’s the point? And now once the truth has come out, Charles is like “oh yeah, I’ve always known he was your father, no big deal”?  What was all of this for? If he really always knew, he should have had a reaction when Griffin came to town last year, just like Vivian did.  I will say, the acting in the reveal scene was amazing, both actresses killed it. Now Vivian lost her husband, who is leaving her, and her daughter… and she already lost her son. The writers really trashed this entire family for nothing, how sad. She’s now running around town blaming everything on Griffin and trashing his name, but lady, no, it’s all your fault! I think I now just got to Gilly’s last episode (Aug 1). She just announced to the family at dinner that she’s leaving town for good and will not reach back out to her mother. What a terrible ending to this character and the family. Finally found a time I liked Alan. Marah (of course) and Shayne sneak away and go wandering on 5th street alone, but Shayne stays back in the abandoned building, just as they’re about to blow it up. Alan is sweet to Marah and realizes Shayne might still be there, so he runs to the building and tries to stop them from detonating the explosives, but he’s too late… he finally has a heart here haha. Although I guess this is still all his fault.  Watching Josh and Reva react to Shayne’s voice from within the rubble was really moving, great acting across the board here (Annie too). Ok, so Zachary shows up while everyone runs away from the rubble that’s falling, and he steps into it and finds Shayne. So is he like an angel or something supernatural? Because I don’t love supernatural stuff on my soaps unless that’s ‘normal’ for the show.  But Alan does eventually go in with Josh, so he’s risking his life to save Shayne, and that’s great. I was a huge Lucy/A-M fan and loved watching their relationship, but most couples work well when the actors have good chemistry. For me, now that Rick Hearst is gone, the relationship just isn’t working for me, sadly. I feel like Lucy and Zachary have better chemistry now haha. Abby’s mom has returned and she’s just highly frustrating and awful - that’s all. J just mentioned he has a sister - who is that? Unless she’s older and an adult, it’s a bit odd that she’s not around since now both Nola and Quint are in Springfield. She didn’t show at Henry’s funeral either, nor was mentioned. So Roger is now in the loony bin, after losing his court case. I’m side-eyeing Blake on this one. She was completely torn, which was nice to see, but she ultimately sided with Dinah/Hart which annoyed me. But, Bridget continues to win for me - she’s one of my favorites - and she just called out Dinah/Hart on their BS, and I’m here for it. If there were ever a moment for a slap, Dinah deserves one from Bridget. Speaking of slaps, I haven’t seen a single slap in the 18 months I’ve been watching this show!  Does GL just not traditionally do slaps? It’s a soap staple that I enjoy haha. Alex continues to be one of my favorites, likely because I’m such a fan of Dusay, her theatrics and heavy breathing. She keeps referring to Amanda as “Little Miss Madame” and it cracks me up.  Speaking of Amanda, she now just overheard nurses gossiping that Blake is having twins with two different fathers, so she knows the secret! This should get good now that she’s re-entered Ross/Blake’s orbit. Ah, so the A.Spaulding in question that paid Neil Everest off to frame Phillip was Alan-Michael!  Well, Lucy found a check he wrote to Neil, so I’m assuming so… this isn’t that interesting of a storyline though, so hopefully this doesn’t drag on too much longer. Now I just found out that Neil and Alan were cellmates in prison…it keeps going. And finally, Annie just faked a prescription for more pills and she just saw a ‘bad Annie’ image of herself who is encouraging her addiction.  Annie is officially talking to herself and since I know Jeva won’t allow a Josh/Annie relationship to survive, I’m all here for crazy Annie! Whoa! Griffin just got shot while giving a speech on 5th Street.  Curious to see what happens here, even though I’m not a Griffin fan.

    • I definitely think FV wanted to pair Kristina and Lucky.  Why else would Lucky decide to become a bartender at her stupid bar?  Lucky was a cop, a crusader?-whatever he was doing in Africa and all these years away.   It makes zero sense for him to just be content tending bar for some flakey girl he knew since she was born.  Have him work with Spinelli at PI firm or something.  There were also some scenes with Kristina and Lucky that seemed like the show was leaning in that direction.  I also suspect JJ was extremely unhappy with that idea lol. As far as Lulu, I certainly don't miss the JMB smug era.  I hate that BLQ looks like a poor, innocent victim being tortured by Lulu at every turn though.  
    • I do think she's been pretty wrecked, having tried to kill someone in cold blood, letting her whole family (including the woman pregnant with her great-grandchild) get charged or questioned, and having no remorse, but it doesn't matter as much because Kathy has not existed as a character since Gillian's return anyway.  There are reasons to bring Max back, like Lauren and his not knowing he had a child with Linda, but he is exhausted, with Jake Wood phoning it in years before he left.  I am a little surprised about Zoe because Michelle Ryan said for years she didn't want to return, to the point of even asking the show to recast the role, but I guess this may only be a short stint. I wouldn't be shocked if they kill Zoe off.
    • HAHAHA. Yeah, that's my bad. I misread that line. Sorry about going into "Unnecessary" detail about my username. Anyway, I love the story behind your Username.    reading on my phone...

    • Completely agree with you. I think Bonita Brisker has been really good as Sharon. What Anita did was obviously awful, so she doesn't need to reign anything in. We're getting a good look at someone who's struggled in life compared to Anita "We're the Duprees!" Williams.   -- Anita is starting to look foolish for dredging all this up just so she  can get her ass back on stage. Is she so delusional she doesn't realize how she hurt Sharon and Tracy? -- Anita's line to Vernon "How can I expect Sharon to forgive me when I haven't forgiven myself" struck me as really selfish. After all that with Sharon, Anita again made it all about herself. -- Does anyone really believe Anita wants equal billing if the Articulettes reunite?  -- Colby Muhammad continues to be a standout. Her Kat more than holds her own with Leslie. -- The writing was very good for the father/daughter scene between Ted and Eva. It wasn't so good between Ted and Martin in their father/son scene. It didn't play like family to me, especially when Ted referred to "my wife" when talking about Nicole to Martin. -- Overall, a very solid show today.    
    • I honestly do not see the point of Max coming back again. Zoe does not surprise me. I've been waiting for that since Bionic Woman flopped in the US, frankly. I'm not against it vs. some other pointless returns. Some returns work and some don't, some are just there. Like, am I grateful that Kathy is alive? Yes, absolutely. Do I love any of her stories? No. But she's not utterly destroyed, she's just there.
    • I think Frank probably wanted to try for Jonathan with Kate Mansi. I actually can't knock the idea of a Lucky/Kristina affair or flirtation on paper, as a romantic obstacle to LNL2, but not with the characters in the places they are at present or have been over the last few years. It would be a mistake to do right now and would poison the well. I think Jonathan probably made it clear when he came back that he wanted what had been promised to him years ago with Elizabeth, and between his not being one of FV's preferred focal leads and Liz being a grudging afterthought if she's not with one of his OLTL stars, I suspect FV was content to leave them where they are vs. where they should be, which is central on the show. It's like I said a few days ago: A lot of this is how Lulu has always been. But back in the day the issue was that Lulu (and Carly) were deified for it, whereas now it's that Lulu is just used as the heavy because FV has a preexisting favoritism for Setton/BLQ. And that's a waste of a key character and talent, namely Alexa Havins.
