Thanks for the video @Soapsuds

Quite an entrance for Beverlee McKinsey.

Yes and it reminded me why I loved PKL first run as HW. She really brought back the show into focus. The show was a mess before she arrived.

GH finally overthrown. Though their numbers were shrinking. The Luke and Laura phenomenon was vanishing.

Those are such sudden and significant drops for the ABC lineup. I don't think I recall seeing GH below a 9 and AMC below an 8. Also, the top rated soap at 7.8 is quite shocking...it wasn't even a very gradual decline.

Definitely. Seems like the Luke and Laura exit had an impact on the entire ABC lineup.

May 14-18, 1984 Y&R first time at #1 since 1979. A sign of things to come.

Alright, Days!

The climax of the Salem Slasher really helped. 

Poor AW though. Not even the 20th anniversary and Jacqueline Courtney’s return helped much

The buildup to Guiding Light beating GH for 3 weeks in a row. 

OLTL sinking quickly with Jean Arley as a visionless EP.

Wow, I would have expected a rise. But instead they fell from week before. I would have thought that the lead up to the wedding, which was Friday, I guess, would have gave the show a boost. And even in the subsequent weeks after the wedding, the ratings just kept going down.

Oh I was about to ask what happened on DAYS! Salem Slasher climax, okay, nice!

I didn't *intend* to sit down & watch an entire episode of Guiding Light.  

But that episode was so well put together, it was hard NOT to watch it.
