Ratings for the week May 20-24, 2013

Holiday week, so guessing we won't have them until Monday.

Days:

My question to NBC and DAYS is why isn't Lorriane Broderick a co-head writer for the show? It makes absolutely no sense to me at all she isn't a co-head writer.

I am really glad that Days went up this week! It truly was a good week so I am happy they got a bump in ratings.

That CBS press release proves exactly what I have been saying all along. Since last year, there has been absolutely no growth in Y&R and B&B's key 18 to 49 women demo which is all that matters to CBS and its advertisers.

Glad to see DAYS went up, its well deserved. I would really be starting to worry if they had not gone up.

Days is currently the best soap on TV. As for YR, it is horrible--nothing happens much like GH used to be.

Bell was poor but this is equally bad. Maybe Bell needed a Raunch-like figure to help out. LML was the only EP to increase ratings. A lot of posters hate her but she ran a tight ship and had a plan. She was gutting the show and the work had to be done.

Now we see the Jason Morgan hour of power.

LOL Im going to frame this. Yes Days was great last week!!

Congrats to DAYS! Well deserved!!

Yay for DAYS! Ratings strength should continue with the amazing week that just ended too. Continued year on year growth is the most important thing and is still there. I believe this should stave off the writing change rumors. Don't fix what ain't broke -- Broderick is probably co-head already in all but name.

We can probably also infer from that press release that GH still finished ahead of DAYS in total viewers, as the press release would have mentioned if it was otherwise. I think it is also likely that GH got a 1.0 in Women 18-49 and that's who DAYS tied with in that demo.

Tell me about it...I never thought I'd be watching Days on a full time bases...lol

When it was just tomlin and white sell it stunk before but I getting Broderick vibes in the writing. She is writing good stuff for days. She was hired at days so many years ago and her stunt was short lived.

The Days press release says it tied #4 in W18-49. I thought it would have tied GH, but it beat them. Who did it tie with?

1.Y&R

2.B&B

3.TPIR

4.DAYS & ??

5.GH

Doubt it was The Talk - was it The View? Did The View beat GH?
