Nice gains for CBS soaps.

I assume GH rose, well at least in viewers or else I doubt CBS would've passed up the chance to gloat about The Talk beating it.

Thanks, Toups.

If anyone cares, I finally updated the GH monthly averages chart for 2013. GH 18-49 demos for June are down nearly 100,000 from January averages and for the first time this year they're averaging below 600,000 for a month. I'd be interested to read if GH advertising rates been affected.

GH 2013 monthly averages:

Jan 2013 2,834,200 653,600
Feb 2013 2,777,500 631,250
Mar 2013 2,612,750 611,500
Apr 2013 2,668,200 637,800 - 50th anniv/Nurses Ball
May 2013 2,550,750 617,750
Jun 2013 2,500,000 556,000**

**Thru 6/14/13

Toups, how are the 12-17 demos? I'm always curious if onscreen teens ever boost these numbers.

Glad to see Days go up and GH back to last place....lol. What happened on Tuesday to give Days a 2.2?

[electrorat]

Tuesday was the Nicole/Kristen confrontation.

Congratulations to Days. It's good to see that their success isn't reliant upon GH not performing well. GH is holding it's own. Days is just so volitile though. I think it's dangerous that they fluctuate so wildly.

Thanks Eric.

Glad to see all soaps up, but especially that DOOL has increased and back to better numbers. Why were the Thu/Fri numbers not counted. Due to the decreased numbers for that day I'm guessing there were a lot of preemptions in some parts of the country??

[Toups]

For this week then numbers ranged from about 12,000 - 34,000.

Yeah, golf started at 12pm on the west coast.

Ah! Figured. Thanks Toups! You're the best
