Members cityfan01 Posted June 9, 2012 Members Share Posted June 9, 2012 I don't know about the rest of the country, but in Minnesota, there is local news between Y&R and B&B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted June 9, 2012 Members Share Posted June 9, 2012 B&B has never been close to Y&R in viewers ever so why would it be a problem now? What matters is that it is up hugely in the demos and is closing in on Y&R in the demos. If anything it makes Y&R look bad that they have 1 million more viewers than B&B and they're that close in demos. It shows B&B has a younger audience which will keep it on air.

Members Chris B Posted June 9, 2012 Members Share Posted June 9, 2012 In a lot of markets B&B airs after Local news, not Y&R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted June 9, 2012 Members Share Posted June 9, 2012 I gotta hand it to both B&B and DAYS. Somehow they both keep showing signs of life even though the soap "press" and bloggers insist on ignoring them in favor of tongue-bathing ABC/GH/DeadOLTL every chance they get.

Members dragonflies Posted June 9, 2012 Members Share Posted June 9, 2012 too much of the same 4 characters on every single day: JaSam and CarSon, and for awhile it was JaSam and SKate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted June 9, 2012 Members Share Posted June 9, 2012 It is like B&B is ignored whether its doing good or bad. I remember two years they were losing like 600,000 viewers year to year and they were at 1.9's and 1.8's and nobody talked about. They were too busy talking whether AMC or OLTL were getting canceled first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JaneAusten Posted June 10, 2012 Members Share Posted June 10, 2012 The problem with Days is they traditionally have skewed younger. Now while maintaining viewers their demos have crashed. B&B to me is the sleeper. They have gained in all categories but constantly gets ignored by the so called soap press and anyone online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted June 10, 2012 Members Share Posted June 10, 2012 Maybe that's good. Getting attention from the soap press seems to be the equivalent of getting pulled out of line by airport security. B&B is that traveler who sails through and gets on the plane with no problem.

Members Khan Posted June 10, 2012 Members Share Posted June 10, 2012 Except, in the case of B&B, Brooke Logan's the one passenger who'd rather be pat down than go through the X-ray scanner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 10, 2012 Members Share Posted June 10, 2012 Well, I talked about B&B's ratings crash, so if I was somehow responsible for their move away from hideously offensive PSA stories (which I do think hurts ratings), I will take that.

Members JackPeyton Posted June 11, 2012 Members Share Posted June 11, 2012 B&B & Days at least TRY. B&B is actively changing the main focus on the show, sure its just to a different set of airhogs, but B&B has always basically revolved around a few core people. Days, well is trys a little too hard, a little too often, and usually it doesnt work out - but they actively change [!@#$%^&*] up. Im not surpsied either show does, i guess one could well? or not as shitty as everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 11, 2012 Members Share Posted June 11, 2012 I think B&B has a lot of problems, still, but I do think Liam and Steffy are charismatic and Hope has potential, if they ever move her stories along. No one featured in a major role on GH or Y&R now has any charisma. It's all about "soapy goodness!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
