Yikes, NBC at the bottom. Only Days beat out Edge, and just barely on that second week. GL staying strong against massive GH

CBS numbers are very up-and-down and it feels odd seeing Y&R out of the Top 5. 1980-1982 was Y&R's surviving era, with the one hour expansion, time slot changes, EP change, cast changes.

As we all know, CBS rearranged the soap block on June 8, 1981. It'll be interesting to see how the ratings during the rest of 1980 and the first half of 1981 lead up to the schedule change.

I'm interested in 1983 because of Betsy and Steve wedding on ATWT.

1983 I can confirm is totally complete, so you will be getting those ratings. I will have more word on additional 1980's years in the coming days!

After Texas/Doctors are cancelled in December 1982, could someone please list any soap debuts or cancellations which happen in 1983 or 1984.  Thanks!

@JAS0N47 Santa Barbara debuted 7/30/84, is that what you meant?

Yes, so that was the only change in 1983-1984?  So NBC waited 19 months before replacing Texas/Doctors with SB.  I just need a quick guide so I know when to look for debuts/cancellations as I am typing out each week's ratings. 

Thanks for letting me know. That's good, since that means there are 2 less soaps I have to type out the weekly info for in 1983 than I did in 1982. So 1983 will go a little quicker than 1982 did.

Thanks for the wonderful information you provide.
 

One other premiere date:

 

Loving       6/26/1983

Thanks for the other change and you're welcome!

I'm quite happy that the "Days" ratings project I've been wanting to complete for all these years is finally getting started AND that it provides fans of ALL soaps the ratings data they want, as well as confirmation of the preemption data for all soaps as well!
