This was a great week for B&B as well. DAYS and Y&R are really lagging in terms of entertainment. I truly believe if Y&R was good it could still be over 5 million and we all know when DAYS gives their fans reason to be passionate, they always tune in.

That year to year number for Y&R is sickening to look at. A drop of more than a half million? They have some work to do.

Those GH dailies are insane. Up, down, up, down. Those are exactly the type of numbers that fanbases love to grab onto for credit and blame.

With Y&R I will give JFP/JG more time. They only have been at helm three months and it does take time for a new regime to make their mark. FV/RC were not going gangbusters first 2 months out, it took awhile. DAYS on the other hand what a snoozefest its become. The show is so BORING to watch. Chris/Gary are writing a dull show. With all the great head writers out of work why can't they choose some better writers who can bring much more excitement to the show. I found it more watchable under MARDAR.

GH Ratings for Tuesday were 3,062,000 that proves that people will still watch soaps if you give them a reason to watch. It almost makes me sad that GH is the only soap up in every category. All other soaps are down. As for Y&R I think it has been improving. I am currently watching today's episode and it has been pretty good and yesterday's was good. Y&R has greatly improved. I now see a serious show whereas when MAB wrote the show it was cheesy. DAYS, oh poor DAYS I don't even have words. I agree with the statement that DAYS fans are passionate and will watch with good story. About a year and a half ago they were getting over 3 million viewers and some days the show reached as high as 3.6 million. Let's hope the show improves and the fans tune back in.

And not 24 hours later, 500k tuned out. Tuesday proved that people are curious. Lucy's arrival probably made them curious but not enough to tune back in the next day. I'll say it again - FRon cannot maintain an increase/audience for 5 consecutive days. Look at BB compared to GH. That's consistency, and it shows you have the audience's attention and not just for stunts.

I would be willing to bet the days of the week with the lowest ratings were probably days when Maxie, Spinelli, Ellie, Dante, Lulu, Connie and that whole group were featured. I think FRon need to take note. They need to look at why over 3 million people tuned in one day but only 2.5 million tuned in the next. If they would take note then maybe they could achieve some consistent ratings. But of course they won't do that because I know good and well they are self absorbed like MAB and think all their material is fabulous. Lol

That's not necessarily true. While I'd love to believe that no one wants to see Maxie, Spin, Kawny, etc, you have to ask yourself: what happened or did not happen Tuesday to make 500k viewers lose interest in 24 hours? There was one eppy not so long ago that I really liked and was slightly anticipated the following eppy, and just I suspected, NOTHING! We were back to rotting garbage.

But I agree that FRon and MAB are too self absorbed to believe their crap is no good. It's the audience fault we don't like their chit.

What days did she appear. I know her return was delayed a day and she first appeared on Monday instead of the Friday cliffhanger.

Was this the Monday she appeared?? And then the spike in ratings for Tuesday?

      I'm anticipating most of the cast at the Nice location for a few weeks a la the Tuscan villa for Victoria and Ashland's wedding. I don't know why they bother. I'd rather see the money going into more regular home/office sets. This party has been a bust. No secrets revealed, break ups  etc. Ugly decorations and I'm going to slam the costuming again. Just the guests heaping praise on  Nikki  like she's achieved some magnificent milestone rather than just getting a year older.

In the loving arms of his wife, Dr. Marlena Evans, John took his last breath at the end of the June 2 episode, after suffering devastating internal injuries during a lab explosion. The iconic character went out as he lived — a hero. Sensing the fans’ devastation on Monday, Marlena’s portrayer Deidre Hall posted this simple-but-powerful message to fans on Instagram: “I know. I know. Hardest day ever.”

      BTG: June 2025 Discussion Thread

      Now coming into June...well...   I knew it was coming but I didn't like the start to the next round of Dani/Bill/Hayley. As the 3 A plots from the start of the show (The SilkPress storyline and Martin's Secret being the other two), it needed to be benched for a while to develop those characters and allow other characters and storylines to grow. 3 months in, Hayley is the weak link, Dani is still divisive, but not boring, and Bill has been making his mark with some plots faster than others. So last week seeing the story starting to loop back around to them with Hayley's potential pregnancy, I honestly had mixed feelings.   I get it. The SilkPress storyline is currently in aftermath/next turn mode, so it has to be moved into a C plot position. Moreso if we want to keep the very talented Miss Trish around. And I love how clever the writers are being with the storyline. They give us enough in the episodes and are still playing out beats to keep the appetite fed. I don't feel like anyone is being dumbed down to keep her around. And Trish is giving nuances in her alone scenes with NuTed. I shouldn't care for a clear psycho, but she be selling it. That said...I wish they had given us a little more of the Martin's Secret storyline in the last week of the month though I loved the game of cat and mouse Bill did on Martin and Smitty to keep the storyline alive and active after it had a nice build beginning of May and vanished for a week mid-May. And it appears like it's about to go back to the backburner as an A plot which of course leaves the A plot of Dani/Bill/Hayley.   I am probably in the minority as someone who is not anti-Dani here and even she annoyed the heck out of me last week. In character true, but I just felt like there was a way to get all of that across without it feeling like...as I've said before...one step forward, two steps back...and have it feel organic. I liked Hayley got a little bit of edge with her, but she still ain't no match for Dani. And it reminds to be seen if we should be going back to that well of a story yet.   Now about today's show...   And I thought Tracy was bad! lol. But YES. Sharon has been worth the wait. And so has Anita's story! Finally having TT in the limelight. This has been a nice slow burn for me and a nice B plot. And the actress is good. The wig is giving. And her holding what Anita's secret is over her head and threatening to tell Vernon....Ooooo...that is what I was waiting for.    And speaking of bad...I thought Eva vs Kat was a great rivalry. But I am loving the rivalry that is growing with 'Nancy Drew' and Silk Press Sheila! They both get good licks in and are so cunning with each other. And I definitely have liked that since the anniversary party, that it has been growing. Now that Kat has been proven right, she has not backed down. And neither has SilkPress. And we got a 'Ms. B@tch' moment, too? LOVE. Eva coming up with a trump card was delicious and so 90s Sami Brady. GOOD. And the coda with Jacob and the expert...YES. The Silk Press storyline has been the best paced on the show so I love that the aftermath of the anniversary party continues to be so...barring one flaw...well for me. Not enough Nicole's POV.   And I like the C plots on display. And by that, I mean Chelsea with Vernon. And it made me wonder what the writers have plan for her love life now that the throuple is over with. I was watching her and going awww.   And of course the mystery man around Martin. I am starting to wonder if he really even works at the country club given how he made a run for it. That would be a twist.    Speaking of Martin...good to see him in scenes with his father and mother.    I'm getting used to NuTed.    I felt the last episode of May was a bit of a letdown, but this was a very nice recovery.

      Unless they cut him, I'd think he would stay. Surely, he didn't choose to return because he expected high quality. I figure he gets to work when he wants and spend a lot of time doing his own thing and being with his family.

      The writing for Liz and Lucky is indeed terrible, but if JJ signed a one-year contract he may be gone in a couple of months anyway. Perhaps they’re just cutting their losses.

      That would be his older sister Stacey. She was the center of a big story back in the day. Nola was out to snag medical student Kelly Nelson, who she thought would provide her with the life she craved. He was in love with a girl named Morgan. Nola plotted to get pregnant by him, but couldn't manage to get him in bed. So she seduced Floyd, who thought she was in love with him. When she knew she was pregnant, she got Kelly drunk and made sure he woke up next to her in bed. Kelly believed her when she told him he made her pregnant. They were about to elope to Las Vegas, but her mother ratted her out and Kelly abandoned her. She almost married Floyd, but jilted him at the altar. She went to work for Quint. When the baby came prematurely, Kelly saved both of them. She named the baby Kelly Louise to irk Morgan, who was now married to Kelly. When she fell in love with Quint, she had a change of heart over all the trouble she had caused, so she changed the baby's name to Anastasia Louise, shortened to Stacey. Quint was a devoted stepfather and Henry treated her like his own granddaughter.  After Quint and Nola leave SF, I believe Stacey is never seen again. Which is odd, you would think they would have brought her back with Nola and J, but they never did.
