Members Soapsuds Posted August 30, 2023 Members Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) Yes and it reminded me why I loved PKL first run as HW. She really brought back the show into focus. The show was a mess before she arrived. Edited August 30, 2023 by Soapsuds 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted August 30, 2023 Members Share Posted August 30, 2023 The soaps cooling off in April. ABC hold diminishing and OLTL tanking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted August 30, 2023 Members Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) GH finally overthrown. Though their numbers were shrinking. The Luke and Laura phenomenon was vanishing. Edited August 30, 2023 by Soapsuds 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GLATWT88 Posted August 30, 2023 Members Share Posted August 30, 2023 Those are such sudden and significant drops for the ABC lineup. I don't think I recall seeing GH below a 9 and AMC below an 8. Also, the top rated soap at 7.8 is quite shocking...it wasn't even a very gradual decline. Definitely. Seems like the Luke and Laura exit had an impact on the entire ABC lineup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AbcNbc247 Posted August 30, 2023 Members Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) Alright, Days! The climax of the Salem Slasher really helped. Poor AW though. Not even the 20th anniversary and Jacqueline Courtney’s return helped much Edited August 30, 2023 by AbcNbc247 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TEdgeofNight Posted August 30, 2023 Members Share Posted August 30, 2023 (edited) The buildup to Guiding Light beating GH for 3 weeks in a row. OLTL sinking quickly with Jean Arley as a visionless EP. Edited August 30, 2023 by TEdgeofNight 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Manny Posted August 30, 2023 Members Share Posted August 30, 2023 Wow, I would have expected a rise. But instead they fell from week before. I would have thought that the lead up to the wedding, which was Friday, I guess, would have gave the show a boost. And even in the subsequent weeks after the wedding, the ratings just kept going down. Oh I was about to ask what happened on DAYS! Salem Slasher climax, okay, nice! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Broderick Posted August 30, 2023 Members Share Posted August 30, 2023 I didn't *intend* to sit down & watch an entire episode of Guiding Light. But that episode was so well put together, it was hard NOT to watch it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
