April 21-25, 2014: Another New Low For Y&R in Women 18-49 Viewers

[Toups]

Ratings for the week April 21-25, 2014

Y&R, stop being so boring! I'd rather watch a "bad" show with a lot going on (GH) than a boring show (Y&R).

[ChitHappens]

Way to go, YR!

[DRW50]

Nothing is going on on GH.

[ChitHappens]

So true! It's a disjointed mess!

[JONNYSBRO]

Oh well GH is still been the most stable through spring fever. Very strong April for them and up from last years big anniversary episodes. Positioned quite well into may with the nurses ball. GH has been stable through August 2013. It's like 8 strong months of ratings. Who cares about Emmys when dollars and cents in network heads pocketbooks is all they care about.

[Soapsuds]

The ratings are so stale.

Stale Spring numbers are right.. here's to some good May sweeps!

[PJA]

GH is a mess but I think it has a lot more going on than Y&R which i'm still 10 episodes behind. Say what you want about MAB but her demos were never this low....especially the prized demo.

Given the choice between MAB's last year at Y&R (very B-A-D) and the current Y&R, I'd pick the current Y&R, hands down. Yes it's boring and yes it's mediocre (on a good day) writing.

Too bad TPTB *think* these are the only two choices - bad or boring.

Get rid of Passante and Altman. Bring back Alden and Bibel.

Y and R is experiencing a little spring fever. Jill's ratings have been higher then Maria's. It will bounce back you all are way too negative.

[bluejeanbaby3]

We have stated over and over again our reasons for being uphappy with Y&R. Perhaps the viewers reflected in the ratings who have tuned out feel like we do? It's easier to paint us as just negative though. I know......

I guess it's hard to be objective about the writers when you aren't.

Jean has only been at the helm since end of December. Give her more time. She's a seasoned vet with tons of experience. 22 consecutive years in the biz is a long time and an Emmy winner. CBS wouldn't be employing her if she didn't have the resume or vast experience. It takes time to make big changes to a show. Y and R was a bit boring for awhile. It's not disgusting or offensive as it was under MAB.

SMH...broken record........

In all honesty, Johnny, you want all of us to be as grateful as you are just to have a few soaps left. Sorry, some of us are just not wired that way. We want a good show and everything that entails, period! And while your passion is great, it does not make sense to champion garbage.
