Thanks!

All the time frames are at a different point in the prep period:

1980-1981 is fully posted.

1982 is fully done and ready to post.

1983-1985 charts need to be sorted & cropped.

1986 is being typed up, with 1987 to type up next.

So, all in all, things are moving along smoothly with the ratings!

Capitol first week pretty much inheriting Search for Tomorrow CBS audience.

P&G probably realized early on what a mistake it was angering CBS to the point that they dropped Search for Tomorrow since the move to NBC turned out to be an epic failure.

It's so funny that Search for Tomorrow NBC run would end three months before Capitol ended.

I just looked at the January 1986 charts. YR preempted twice that month:

1/27/86-1/31/86    Young and the Restless    CBS    8.6    27    206    99    Preempted Tuesday- CBS News Special Report/Friday- Memorial Service: Challenger

Awesome, I had thought that was the case but could never confirm the Jan 31 pre-emption. Thank you for this

Is it definitely Jan 27??? As I thought it was Jan 28 for the Challenger explosion. That's interesting if it was Jan 27
