February 9, 201214 yr Member The Revolution posted record lows again, so hopefully that (plus the terrible quality) don't hurt GH too much. The scenario continues to worsen. Based on the Live Plus Same Day ratings from Nielsen for the week of January 30, week three of ABC daytime talk show The Revolution dipped to 1.44 million viewers, which is now half the audience of year-ago occupant One Life to Live (2.85 million viewers for the week of 1/31/11). Erosion in the three key demos — women 25-54, women 18-49 and women 18-34 — is also 50 percent as illustrated.

It's such a new thing to have GH with no lead-in and you need those numbers for perspective. Yes ratings will be down and whatnot, but to have such a small lead-in and build ratings is a huge thing. Especially if the show starts to see real rating success in coming weeks.

February 10, 201214 yr Member Oh WOW! Those Revolution numbers are really terrible as this show has really flopped hard. The affiliates will be pulling this show off the schedule very soon if some of them already haven't. No way ABC brings this show back in the fall, they can definitely find something better than this or just keep GH. I really feel bad that GH always has to follow that low-rated program.

February 10, 201214 yr Member I'm ready for the announcement of The Revolution's cancelation. Screw the fact that its cheaper than GH anything else they try to replace with it will only flop harder. GH may have staved off cancelation for at least one more year.
February 10, 201214 yr Member I'm hoping by the lack of press releases from competing networks, DAYS did well.
February 10, 201214 yr Member I doubt we will see any press releases from ABC anytime soon. Lol. you dont say...lol

GH may have staved off cancelation for at least one more year. Im thinking more of the same thing. I think this may be GH's saving grace esp if RC and FV get the numbers up. I bet it will be the Rev thats get canned and GH moves to 2pm est Days and Y&R have been very good. Really hoping for a gains for Days!!
February 10, 201214 yr Member It's too bad TR didn't debut before that food show. If it had, perhaps ABC would've kept OLTL. Now, I can't imagine ABC not moving GH to 2p.m. as soon as KC comes on. However, I'm not sure the affiliates will put up with these ratings for 7 more months. I never thought I'd root for GH to do well, but now with only four shows, I'm hope for the genre's sake that it survives.
February 10, 201214 yr Member yes I do think ABC will think twice now before pink slipping GH def as it's their daytime jewel now. They should ahve waited a year or two before pink clipping OLTL to give that Food show more time to build an audieance. I think these terrible ratings bode very good for Days too. I also want to add it's still early for The Rev. I am assuimg they will build ther ratings just a bit as time goes on
February 10, 201214 yr Member If the Revulsion has to continue to PAY people $30 to sit in the audience as they tape their show, I wonder how long ABC will continue to want to keep it. From what I understand, most shows have a wait-list for tickets. Revulsion ratings are in the basement and people won't even go to watch live-- sounds like a typical ABC blunder to me. Now, do they cut their losses and replace it with something else (even worse if possible?) or keep GH for 6 mo- 1 year as a lead in for Queen Katie? And I'm just saying it now-- I think Katie will flop too.
