Members JNewt Posted January 21, 2012 Members Share Posted January 21, 2012 It really did get close to 4 million, it skewed younger than I thought it would! ABC Daytime will never see that number again outside of The View or depending on what kind of turn around Ron C. makes with GH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JONNYSBRO Posted January 21, 2012 Members Share Posted January 21, 2012 WOW almost 4 million for the finale. OLTL WOW WOW WOW. It went out with a fierce bang and why didn't ABC put this in their release. It seems GH benefitted hugely from OLTL as did the Chew. The show that NEVER should have been cancelled. ABC made probably the biggest blunder in soap history with cancelling OLTL. Why do you guys think for fans it was easier to let go of OLTL then AMC? Now they get 1.3 million with the Revolution, thats a 60% percent plunge from OLTL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Eric83 Posted January 21, 2012 Members Share Posted January 21, 2012 Wow B&B is really solid and making a huge turn around. It is really good right now so good for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webmaster Errol Posted January 21, 2012 Webmaster Share Posted January 21, 2012 Looking at the #'s.... OLTL did beat Y&R in Women 18-49 on 1/13/12. OLTL had a 1.6 rating to Y&R's 1.3. Additionally, OLTL attracted over 1 million Women 18-49 viewers (actuals) for its series finale. We'll be doing a comparison report shortly as to the last time the show did this good in as many categories. Check back later for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fanOLTL Posted January 21, 2012 Members Share Posted January 21, 2012 It didn't just go out on top because of numbers; it went out on top in story too. What a great show. I've been watching since 1991. I'm enjoyed lurking around on these boards and reading everyone's thoughts about OLTL. Back in the 90's, I had the impression OLTL wasn't terribly popular - never talked about as much as GH, YR, AMC, etc. This board has been great in that I feel I've shared my OLTL experience with all of you. Since I don't watch any other soaps, I doubt I'll be back here - certainly not often. It's been a pleasure sharing this experience. Thank you all for posting ratings, opinions, spoilers, etc. about one of my all time favorite television shows. To quote Dr. Seuss, don't cry because it's over; smile because it happened.

Members Llantano Incorporated Posted January 21, 2012 Members Share Posted January 21, 2012 I was kind of dreading today because waiting for the last week of ratings for OLTL was kind of -it- in my mind. It is the final outcome of 43 years. I never thought OLTL would beat AMC in its final week. I am very proud of the way this show went out. I rewatched the final episode after reading all the good, bad, and mixed critiques, and I still feel the same way. It was near perfect, and Thursday and Friday combined WAS perfect. I have not had many 27 year relationships in my life, and OLTL was there for me through thick and thin. Other than that godawful Higley era, it was time well spent. What a way to go. The Revolution will fail. Miserably. This much I know. Llanview lives on---somewhere.. And I must say that I already miss Viki (and Erika) most of all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members EastMA2 Posted January 21, 2012 Members Share Posted January 21, 2012 Good for you all that think OLTL went out on top. It didn't. Even back in 2007 OLTL had more viewers than it had in its finale week. Not alot to cheer about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gtru1981 Posted January 21, 2012 Members Share Posted January 21, 2012 DAYS NEEDS TO GET THEIR ACT TOGETHER AND FAST! NBC is probably looking at Abc and seeing if they still keep it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JNewt Posted January 21, 2012 Members Share Posted January 21, 2012 That was five years ago when more people were watching daytime television than they are now in 2012. You can't compare what amount they had in 2007 to what they had for the finale. You seem to be reaching here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EastMA2 Posted January 21, 2012 Members Share Posted January 21, 2012 Actually YOU are reaching. 3.8 million finale when well over 13 million people used to watch OLTL is NOT a good number. But it's all good. We know why these shows got cancelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OLTL_fan Posted January 21, 2012 Members Share Posted January 21, 2012 Now your comparing ratings to 30 years ago when like no one had cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
