Members Soapsuds Posted November 3, 2023 Members Share Posted November 3, 2023 ATWT doing well. James great escape was a hit! Duke and Lucinda meddling did well too for the show that week. But WTF happened to the CBS soaps on....3/13/89-3/17/89 Spring break? There were no pre emptions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAS0N47 Posted November 3, 2023 Members Share Posted November 3, 2023 "DAYS" 1980'S WEDDINGS: THE RATINGS... Here's a look at the 31 weddings that took place on "Days" in the 1980's, from highest-to-lowest rated weeks. Please note: Weeks in red are "fast weekly" weeks (Nielsen only issued preliminary data for these weeks, not final numbers). No data is available for the week of Don & Liz's wedding.

Members kalbir Posted November 3, 2023 Members Share Posted November 3, 2023 Y&R is killing it! Brad in a cage had wrapped up and the next big storylines were Phillip/Nina wedding and George Rawlins murder. Surprised to see Generations premiere w/ 97% clearance. I thought it would be lower. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted November 3, 2023 Author Members Share Posted November 3, 2023 Bo/Hope wedding rates the same as Pete/Ivy from the same year. Surprised there wasn't more of a bump for Bo/Hope. Culmination of major story/location shoot/expensive wedding gown etc. In fact Bo/Hope rates lower than Larry/Hope the year before. I wonder if there was any fall out from that in terms of expense v ratings result? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted November 3, 2023 Members Share Posted November 3, 2023 Lmaoooooo The dog wedding was higher rated than Bo and Hope's? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kalbir Posted November 4, 2023 Members Share Posted November 4, 2023 @Paul Raven @AbcNbc247 Bo/Hope wedding May 20-24, 1985 Days was 3rd tied w/ Y&R. Remember that 1985 Days time slot competition was strong All My Children, rising Y&R, middle ranked As the World Turns. 1987 Days time slot competition was strong Y&R, not yet a hit B&B, weakened All My Children. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfave06 Posted November 4, 2023 Members Share Posted November 4, 2023 Y&R has definitely officiated itself as a strong #1 rather quickly, over a million ahead of the pack. I was wondering how OLTL would do in the ratings amid Eterna given how the Old West caused a big drop but they actually did rather well. Unfortunately the storytelling becomes all over the place, no fallout on the Viki/Megan reveal and the show relies on the baby switch and Austin for its last hurrah. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted November 4, 2023 Members Share Posted November 4, 2023 Was this Doug & Julie's third wedding? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted November 4, 2023 Author Members Share Posted November 4, 2023 No, their second . They married in 76 and divorced after Julie was burned. Doug then married Lee. Finally they reunited and remained wed until they left in 84. when Julie came back in 90 they were now divorced. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JAS0N47 Posted November 4, 2023 Members Share Posted November 4, 2023 (edited) I found this newspaper article tonight for the 10/19/87 week that is missing. This confirms the rankings (1st to 8th place) that VR posted are correct! Unfortunately, no article for the missing 12/14/87 week is in any newspaper.

Members te. Posted November 4, 2023 Members Share Posted November 4, 2023 (edited) Generations just plummeted into the low 2s fast despite having excellent coverage. And yikes, DAYS just crashed with it - I know a lot of people have said the show was messy at this point but I think the previous Scrabble lead in must've helped.
