CBS numbers are very up-and-down and it feels odd seeing Y&R out of the Top 5. 1980-1982 was Y&R's surviving era, with the one hour expansion, time slot changes, EP change, cast changes.

As we all know, CBS rearranged the soap block on June 8, 1981. It'll be interesting to see how the ratings during the rest of 1980 and the first half of 1981 lead up to the schedule change.

Yes, so that was the only change in 1983-1984?  So NBC waited 19 months before replacing Texas/Doctors with SB.  I just need a quick guide so I know when to look for debuts/cancellations as I am typing out each week's ratings. 

Thanks for letting me know. That's good, since that means there are 2 less soaps I have to type out the weekly info for in 1983 than I did in 1982. So 1983 will go a little quicker than 1982 did.

Thanks for the other change and you're welcome!

I'm quite happy that the "Days" ratings project I've been wanting to complete for all these years is finally getting started AND that it provides fans of ALL soaps the ratings data they want, as well as confirmation of the preemption data for all soaps as well!
