Members Soapsuds Posted July 22, 2023 Members Share Posted July 22, 2023 By 1982/1983 AW had completely imploded in the ratings. In the 4's and ranking #10 among the soaps. I always loved sale of the century. Too bad the ratings were so low. ATWT doing well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tybuki Posted July 22, 2023 Members Share Posted July 22, 2023 Sale would improve over time, eventually knocking out Child's Play. When you get a chance @JAS0N47, can you post the week of June 26-30, 1984? Thank you. Members Posted just now Sale would improve over time, eventually knocking out Child's Play. When you get a chance @JAS0N47, can you post the week of June 26-30, 1984 for weekdays? Thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted July 22, 2023 Members Share Posted July 22, 2023 Just recently in the AW Topic we were discussing some of the very popular stuff in the 80s & the fact that the ratings just sat there, flat, dead in the water, no bumps or anything. Discussion of times like that when ratings did not seem to reflect either quality or popularity. Quizzical. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted July 22, 2023 Members Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) ATWT still doing well. When you have a chance I'm curious what the ratings were for the weeks of February 27-March 2 and March 5-9. Thanks!!

Members JAS0N47 Posted July 22, 2023 Members Share Posted July 22, 2023 I assume you mean 1984? These two weeks are from two different books, so they wouldn't normally be on the same chart that I post, but I'll do it this time. As a reminder, the weekly charts will be coming over the course of the next few months, so (to everyone) please try to limit ratings questions to non-soaps, mainly if you have questions about other daytime shows or Saturday morning shows from 1980-1987.

Members Soapsuds Posted July 22, 2023 Members Share Posted July 22, 2023 Thanks! That was the two weeks of Craig downfall. Margo got caught in a fire meant for Steve. The episodes are on YouTube. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members watson71 Posted July 23, 2023 Members Share Posted July 23, 2023 The ratings for GL are the first few weeks when Beverlee McKinsey joined the show as Alexandra Spaulding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted July 23, 2023 Members Share Posted July 23, 2023 I believe in 1985 that CBS swept the Emmys. Y&R Best Show, GL Zimmer Best Actress, GL Larry Gates Best Support, Y&R Beth Maitland Best Support, ATWT Brian Bloom Young Male, Y&R Tracey E. Bregman Ingenue & GL Directing. That's 7. ABC only won 2 for AMC Darnell Williams Lead Actor & Best Writing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAS0N47 Posted July 23, 2023 Members Share Posted July 23, 2023 I don't know The Biskitts, but they lost the time slot to the two more long-running cartoons, Scooby Doo and Flintstones. 12/10/83: 8-830AM: Best of Scooby Doo...ABC...4.0/22 Flintstone Funnies...NBC...3.6/24 Biskitts...CBS...3.0/20 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tybuki Posted July 23, 2023 Members Share Posted July 23, 2023 The Biskitts was CBS's attempt at a Smurfs clone involving puppies/dogs. It was removed in January, and I'd say losing to 2 shows composed of reruns didn't help its cause. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
