Members Soapsuds Posted June 19, 2023 Members Share Posted June 19, 2023 (edited) Nice to see ATWT back in the top 5. AW free falling. Actually I didn't need a hot hunk shirtless because the soaps were so good back in the day. My first gay awakening was Grant Aleksander on GL back in 1983. Seeing guys shirtless onscreen was just gravy considering how great the storylines were. Edited June 19, 2023 by Soapsuds 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Broderick Posted June 19, 2023 Members Share Posted June 19, 2023 John Conboy was always convinced if a storyline wasn't working very well, or if a scene dragged a bit, someone needed to deliver their lines nekkid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JoeCool Posted June 19, 2023 Members Share Posted June 19, 2023 6/9, 6/16, 6/23: ABC has top 3 spots. General Hospital a strong number 1. All My Children and One Life to Live strong. Y&R strong. As the World Turns and AW slipping. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted June 19, 2023 Members Share Posted June 19, 2023 Looking forward to see how AW fared in July, with that being the last month of 90 minute episodes and the beginning of all the Texas storylines. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted June 19, 2023 Members Share Posted June 19, 2023 Yet he never delivered it in any of his soaps. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted June 19, 2023 Members Share Posted June 19, 2023 ATWT and GL changed time periods during this time. SFT dropped during that week. An episode from SFT from the week before.

Members JoeCool Posted June 20, 2023 Members Share Posted June 20, 2023 Strong GH at Number 1. AMC at Number 2. OLTL at Number 3. ABC moves higher. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted June 20, 2023 Members Share Posted June 20, 2023 So, it appears that fans of AW were not fans of the Texas crew Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted June 20, 2023 Members Share Posted June 20, 2023 AW ratings were horrendous. They are free falling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members teplin Posted June 20, 2023 Members Share Posted June 20, 2023 The drop was well deserved, unfortunately. Just a horrible time for the show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted June 20, 2023 Members Share Posted June 20, 2023 (edited) It was the price of shows like AW, SB, and GL had to pay for Paul Rauch's ego. Edited June 20, 2023 by MichaelGL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members watson71 Posted June 20, 2023 Members Share Posted June 20, 2023 During July 1980, AW was introducing all the characters and the setting kept jumping between Bay City and Houston. So if a new viewer tuned in to the debut of Texas on August 4th, it was like following a show already in progress since the Texas storylines were introduced on AW in July. Would be difficult for a new viewer to follow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
