Members skiman12082004 Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 I'm definitely curious to see how the soaps did in the ratings this week. Even though we're down to four I still get excited on Thursday's for the ratings :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JONNYSBRO Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 Its awesome that GH is holding really steady in its new timeslot. They have improved by moving the show to a different timeslot. GH should rev up all the way until April 1. They are holding very steady and I am super impressed.

Members marceline Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 For my own purposes, I consider any change in 50K or under range to be flat. It looks like CBS had a pretty good week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members frequentsoapfan Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 The only soap holding steady is B&B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 It's almost shameful how people ignore that but I've decided that getting no online hype is part of the reason the show is doing so well. I'll be honest, the stories sound dreadful to me. I hated the Taylor/Ridge/Brooke neverending triangle and Liam/Hope/Steffy sounds like exactly the same thing. Sigh...I have to admit that I miss having a soap to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 I'm glad for Youtube, mostly. And then sometimes I can transfer my old fan obsessiveness onto something else for a while, even if obsessing over Big Brother or watching a dozen Doctor Who fan videos isn't exactly the same as taking in Nixon, Labine, Marland, etc. I don't watch B&B very often, but apparently they know what works for them. I just wonder what the backup plan is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 I've never been a clip watcher, not even for my absolute faves. Watching clips either makes me sad because I miss them or angry at how things ended, depending on the story. The best of/worst of threads here on the board sometimes inspire me to check out things I missed. Thanks to those threads I finally watched Frankie Frame's murder and Margo's rape. I also went back to check out old GL clips which only brought home how tragic that show's final years were. It's funny. I can watch reruns of classic sitcoms and sci-fi over and over but I can't bring myself to rewatch soaps. I wonder, does anybody know what kind of viewer research they do? Frons was famous for using his focus groups as an excuse to do whatever he wanted. Does B&B do focus groups? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 With Brad Bell's ADD ways I can't imagine he'd pay attention, although comments like making B&B into One Tree Hill might mean focus group. If you ever have a chance you might want to check out the Edge of Night episodes on Youtube, or the Another Life episodes, which are being put up from the first episode.

Members JaneAusten Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 B&B is a perfect example of why I can't take online feedback that seriously because everywhere you read about B&B(which admittedly is not in many places) posters have talked about how much they hate the triangle. I tend to think like many onliners, their "fatigue" is more about the fact that Steffy is not the clearcut winner than anything else, and she seems to be a favorite online or at least by folks who post frequently(not necessarily on this site).I'm not suggesting the triangle isn't tired at this point, but the show has obviously tapped into something to keep the general viewer engaged and to even draw in some newer viewers. I personally think the show just happened to find 3 younger actors that clicked and complemented each other well and all seem to be well liked as characters by the audience. They are attempting it appears to move away from the nonstop focus on the triangle with some story tied to some of the other younger characters and a non Ridge Brooke. We'll see how long that lasts before BB gets tired of it and reverts back to Steffy, Liam, Hope AGAIN nonstop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kimmiemae Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 Thanks Toups! At least Days didn't lose viewers. Not much of a gain though.. Surprised that Days got a 1.7 on Monday. Monday's are usually strong ratings days for DOOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members frequentsoapfan Posted October 6, 2012 Members Share Posted October 6, 2012 B&B is only watchable about one day a week for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
