Glad to see B&B get that boost in total viewers and demos. As much as we complain about 'The Hope Show,' apparently viewers tuned in upon Hope learning she has a bun in the oven. ...Thanks!

Yup. Onliners don't seem to like Liam/Hope/Wyatt (Steffy) but they're a hit with offliners. They've proven to bring in the ratings for the past 3 years.

Exactly. Plus B&B has managed to do something they haven't been able to do with younger generation - that is, successfully transition with a new set of players. It seemed like the loss of Steffy would put an end to the run, but Wyatt replaced her and turned the story in a new direction. Now with Ivy, Ally and Oliver, they have other backup players. (I'd include Caroline, but she's been moved to "adult" orbit and Rick/Myrna are somewhere in the middle.)

The noise on FB and Twitter does not hold a candle to offliners, who will always have the final word. Just ask TravestyDallasTnT!

Such an interesting point of how in all areas of the television medium EXCEPT except daytime drama, social media and online views seem to echo the perspective of viewers, in general.

When you think of how primetime shows like Scandal and ABC/Disney has used Twitter as a barometer to gauge show interest and even forecast ratings...even NBC put out how many tweet their Sound of Music Live broadcast generated because they knew it was a barometer for their ratings.

Daytime drama seems to be the exact inverse of this, where the Twittersphere/Facebook usually tells little to nothing about overall viewer perspective. Probably because daytime has a history of skewing towards traditional outlets and away from technology (let's not forget how vehemently opposed many were to the PP online soaps well in advance of them showing up on Hulu).
