Members watson71 Posted October 31, 2019 Members Share Posted October 31, 2019 CHiPS aired in the 3:00 PM timeslot from April-September 1982. Fantasy- a combination American game show and human-interest show co-hosted by Peter Marshall and Leslie Uggams aired in the timeslot from September 1982 to October 1983. It was replaced by The Match Game/Hollywood Squares Hour from October 1983 to July 1984 when Santa Barbara debuted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanessaReardon Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Please register in order to view this content Just to repeat, these ratings are for the issue date of Daytime TV Magazine. Search For Tomorrow was still listed in their ratings in the April, 1987 issue even though they left the air at the end of December 1986. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted November 2, 2019 Members Share Posted November 2, 2019 I wonder what was happening on GH, OLTL and AMC to have them lock up the top three in April, 1987. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted November 2, 2019 Members Share Posted November 2, 2019 Actually, once shows went into syndication, they could be broadcast by affiliates of ANY network. In the 1970s, I watched reruns of Peyton Place on an NBC-owned station, even though PP had originally aired on ABC. The Big Valley (loved that show!) was on both a local CBS station and a local NBC affiliate in the late afternoons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members pdm1974 Posted November 2, 2019 Members Share Posted November 2, 2019 I wonder what was the closest SB ever got to AW....Someone posted earlier what would have happened to Santa Barbara's ratings if it had been switched in timeslots with Another World. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted November 2, 2019 Author Members Share Posted November 2, 2019 I think Robb may have been referring to reruns in the network timeslots - 10am - 4.30 pm CBS ran Lucy,Dick Van Dyke, Andy Griffith,Beverly Hillbillies etc in the morning for years before they went into syndication. ABC ran Brady Bunch,Happy Days, Bewitched, That Girl etc NBC in the 70's and 80's reran Chico & The Man, Golden Girls, Diffrent Strokes etc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted November 2, 2019 Members Share Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) Well, that would make sense, but an NBC affiliate broadcast ABC's Peyton Place at 4:00 PM in my area, and (in a different year) a CBS affiliate reran ABC's The Big Valley also at 4:00 PM and an NBC-owned channel aired it at 5:00 PM. I remember this because I watched both TBVs back-to-back. Maybe by then the networks had sold the 4:00 PM timeslot to local affiliates and let them broadcast anything they wanted from any syndicated source, however. I imagine that times still controlled by the networks might have only shown self-produced series.

VanessaReardon Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 You’ll see - in 1988 how close SB got to AW. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted November 2, 2019 Members Share Posted November 2, 2019 What happened in April to make almost all the soaps drop heavily? Nice rebound in May and ATWT at #3. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanessaReardon Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I’ve started to dig up more detailed ratings info from 1984. For the week of July 30 to August 3, 1984 the rankings were as follows: AMC, GH, OLTL, Y&R, GL, ATWT, Days, Capitol, AW, SB and finally SFT. I don’t have the ratings numbers, just the ranking. Loving, Ryan’s Hope and Edge were preempted because of the olympics and ABC aired 40 minute episodes of AMC, OLTL and GH from 1-3 pm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted November 3, 2019 Members Share Posted November 3, 2019 I'm guessing that May 87 corresponds to February? It'll be interesting to see how B&B does when it premieres. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted November 3, 2019 Members Share Posted November 3, 2019 I believe B&B debut with the same ratings as Capitol...5.3-5.6 range. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted November 3, 2019 Members Share Posted November 3, 2019 Gotcha. It's interesting to see AW get a nice little surge/bump in early '87 as well, I assume that may be attributed to the Sin Stalker story. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanessaReardon Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 I’m going to suspend posting the Daytime TV magazine ratings because I have a better source and have found weekly ratings pretty much from 1985 on, with a few missing weeks. But in the meantime, to confuse everyone even more, I have found that the ratings posted in Daytime TV’s March 1987 issue were the actual ratings for week of August 25-29, 1986 and the April, 1987 issue showed the ratings from October 6-10, 1986. So the magazine was several months behind - even moreso than I thought. It will be much more clearer going forward for me to post clearly defined ratings -ratings for a specific week, instead of these were in Daytime TV but I don’t know which week they represent. Look forward to sharing this stuff that was in my basement. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
