Ratings from the 80's

[Contessa Donatella]

I see people post people who have died often. Does that only apply to "Single Status Updates"?

[I Am A Swede]

Don't even try anything like that! You know damn well what I meant.

A picture of Patrick McNee and Diana Rigg has no relevance whatsoever in this thread, just like your long rambling on famous soap fans had no place in the "What are you listening to" thread just to name another example.

[VanessaReardon]

She is truly a sick woman. We are all reporting her. She ruins EVERY thread.

[Contessa Donatella]

No, VR, I am absolutely not a sick woman.

Swede, it's a valid question. I'm not "trying anything like anyting".

I seriously doubt Bell would have moved have moved both Y&R and B&B to another network(knowing Bell's success we'd be discussing FOX Daytime!) I think Bell recognized the challenges of launching a new soap even  in the late '80s he had analyzed what the odds were, especially if B&B had debuted in the Capitol slot. Not to mention both Bill himself and Lee Phillip Bell actively campaigned in every market that had preempted B&B  that by 1995 even single CBS station in the US was airing B&B. 

 

Aside from dropping the 10AM game shows in 1991(Bob Goen's Wheel of Fortune lol) CBS Daytime had the exact same consistent line-up from 1987-2009 with no change.

Woof! And here we go! Bye-bye, EON. I was right, RH was near-instantly hobbled by the switch. SFT seems to have gotten a little bit of a boost. I wonder if it was people who tried Loving and weren't hooked or early tune-ins to DOOL. And over on CBS, Capitol is in the rear, but holding its own pretty well against AW.

CBS kept the 10 am ET slot until September 1993; Family Feud Challenge was the last game show in that slot. I remember Bob Goen's Wheel of Fortune. CBS really cheaped out on WoF; $50 and $75 spaces on the wheel LOL. Like Family Feud and Now You See It earlier in 1989, WoF also had a CBS soap week but unfortunately those episodes haven't surfaced online anywhere (I remember they aired sometime during Fall 1989).

I saw that and I didn’t even know who those people are that she posted a pic of. I chalked it up to her obvious mental illness. She has to have attention. I’m giving it to her, I know, and I should be ignoring her, but it’s comforting to know that so many others feel the same. I have gotten SO many private messages about her.

Yes, VR, I am appreciative today of the assistance I'm getting via private messages. I doubt that many people did not know that that was Patrick McNee who died this year. He & Diana Rigg were the original Avengers. Now, you have gone even further & accused me of having a mental illness.  You're just pitiful about this. I'm working as hard as I can here to get along with all y'all. And, I've got people sending me messages to help me. And, I am very hopeful that sooner instead of later I will fit in here. STOP CALLING ME NAMES. I WILL NOT CALL YOU ANY.

[VanessaReardon]

Mental illness is a real illness. I get that. May god bless you on your journey. Just please stop spamming these boards with nonsense. We’re all begging you to STOP!! This used to be a nice place before you invaded it with nonsense. STOP it! Please.

Why were you posting pictures of them in this thread on soap ratings from the '80s in the first place?
