Dead Baby Switch/Beavis Thomas story is really working on B&B - The Beavis and the Beautiful.  1.1 Million more viewers than Days and dead last in W18-49.  Definitely need more Beavis/Hope/Liam/Steffy/Flo/Wyatt, etc. - it's really working.  And Y&R - The Adam and the Restofthem - also really workin'.  So glad Wimbledon is on this week...saw neither show yesterday and about 10 minutes of each this week.

Beavis and the Beautiful. DEAD lol

 

B&B is coasting on fumes at this point. Time for Brad to hang it up.

 

Y&R is too much "The Adam Show" again. No thanks. It's not unwatchable but it's not must see either. It's reached the point other soaps have gotten to, sadly.

 

GH just has a bunch of people on every day. Not much really happens. Too many pets and propping of said pets.

 

DAYS is the best of the bunch and that's REALLY saying something

Ratings just are what they are at this point. Meh.

Best of the bunch wasn't necessarily a compliment

 lol

 

But at least I'm slightly entertained. YMMV of course. 

 

Yep.

 

And also curious how they think Kevin, Chelsea, original flavor Phyllis, etc. will raise any ratings? I think the ratings are stagnating and not much can increase or even decrease them. They just kind of are what they are at this point. Meh. lol.

2.96 on Monday....not sure what the rating was for Friday. The problem is if fans of hers tuned in....they were disappointed because she didn't appear on Monday episode until later in the week. By then viewers had tuned out.

I hope Gina Tognoni is laughing her as* off and having a great Summer Vacation.  Before getting picked up for a primetime role if she wants it.  I know that Stafford and her have been nice over social media but I'd still be a little bitter if I were Tognoni.  Especially since I saw a commercial the past week about Y&R and "Familiar Faces are Back and the Summer will be HOT!" type of message.  yeah, not so much.  

 

I know it's been years now but it's hard to believe back when Summer caused ratings to rise substantially.  Further proof no one young is watching soaps.  And back when Fridays and Mondays always were the biggest ratings days.  Now you never can tell.  A show's highest ratings can be a Wednesday now for whatever reason.  No real cliffhangers or resolutions that anyone cares about.  I still say with ABC running their Game Show nights, they're looking for a replacement for GH.  Ellen's Game of Games on NBC - in general Game Shows on at night...I wouldn't put it past ABC to have a Michael Strahan hosted 100,000 1 hour pyramid during the day.  ABC for whatever reason is in love with Strahan.

“THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL” SHOWS CONTINUED SUMMER STRENGTH

ATTRACTS LARGEST AUDIENCE IN 10 WEEKS

8ba483168b165be1369b96a41b3f9053.jpg

For the week ending Friday, June 28, THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL scored 3.31 million viewers, its largest audience in 10 weeks – since the week ending April 26.

Source: Nielsen, Live plus Same Day Ratings for the week ending Friday, June 28.

Based on the press release, The Beavis and the Beautiful (LOL) gains 100,000+ viewers from this week (nothing about the demos which are probably stagnant).  It seems "psycho Thomas" is working (the week mentioned - the aftermath of running Ema off the road).

 

Y&R - I agree with KMan101 the show is over-promoting Phyllis/Adam/Chelsea/Kevin returns.

 

Nice boost for Days for Caroline's memorial, but agree with Soapsuds overall the show is dull right now.

It's easy for them to get a largest audience in 10 weeks when they've been dropping every week for the most part.  "Continued Summer Strength".  What a laugh.  They're hitting all time lows but continuing Summer strength.

I feel like due to their easy renewals, these shows must do really well online. The Bell soaps I mean. On CBS All Access they're always listed with the popular shows so it's likely the ratings are better than we think. The only thing that gave Y&R a bit of a bump was the Kristoff St. John tribute. I think that worked because not only were you honoring a legendary actor, but it was something different. With Y&R right now the Adam story is literally the A story EVERY DAY so unless you are sold on that story you don't have much reason to tune in. Plus, even if you do love the show, once you notice it's on every day you have less reason to watch each day since you can easily skip and catch up. They need another A story to rotate it with.

    • Yeah, I was fickle. I abandoned baby watch & just tried to think of really well matched pairings. Yeah, they sent Carter & Thomasina away far too soon for my way of looking at things.  I REALLY liked them & they were rare being both young & African Americans. 
    • My watching in that time period was sketchy.  After high school, I didn't have a TV.  I would watch in the dormitory common room  my first year away from home, but then after that I lived in a rental with housemates who didn't want TV.  I think I caught up on the soaps during school(univ) vacations, when visiting my sister's house.  And then many many years later on soapnet?  Not sure. I had no idea that Jeff ever tried suicide. Reading just now is the first I ever heard of that. Interesting. I will agree that Monica wanted Jeff out of the way so she could be with Rick, but she would have wanted him gone emotionally.  But I don't remember watching Jeff having any medical issues, so I don't know if she would have wanted him dead.
    • Didn't he have a nightmare last week?
    • Nothing about Joss ever works. I can't blame them for trying a completely fresh approach for her, but she needs to be written out. 
    • Thanks @Paul Raven  Some of this sounds strong but it's all so heavy and some elements, like with Felicia and Charles, almost veer on parody. L&L seemed to always be a heavy show - did they ever even have comic relief moments? - but I do wonder if it all became too much for viewers.
    • It's a joke. If there's a way to put Joss into a WSB spy story that works, I haven't seen it. What they're doing is just ridiculous. Imagine trusting a huge operation to someone who "finished training" a month ago. I think they're trying to make this work by having a college-age agent be a part of the professor's class, etc. It might look acceptable on paper, but it doesn't work when you see it.
    • Monday, after the party, Leslie showed up at the Duprees. Martin was with everyone as they listened to her for a bit. Then Martin said he was needed at home.  Anita and Vernon knew he was upset and they were concerned. Vernon asked "Do you need Titus, or are you okay to drive?"  Martin said he was okay and left to drive himself home. Either Titus is a chauffeur or just some helpful all-around employee.

    • I know the other soaps talk about staff help who we never see (especially Y&R with all those ridiculous "Mrs. Martinez" mentions), but I wanted BTG to do better.
    • @Franko As requested 1976 story summary. I'll be posting it in parts as it is very lengthy  and probably too much to take in at once.  Since 1951 the story of the residents of the town ofRosehill, Love of Life, has revolved around the livesof Vanessa (Van) and Margaret (Meg) Dale and their families. ' Van, now married to Bruce Sterling, finds her husband has become mayor due to the death of the former mayor, Jeff Hart, who was her sister Meg’s husband. Meg offered her son Ben half a million dollars as a wedding gift to marry refined and responsible Betsy Crawford and thus abandon his playboy existence. The offer was so good that Ben married Betsy with alacrity despite the fact that he was already married to Arlene Lovett, a fact very few people knew. Arlene reluctantly agreed to the bigamous marriage on Ben’s assurance that as soon:as he had his hands on the money they would skip town. However, Meg decided Ben needed more time to become responsible for such a large sum of money and has held up the gift. Attorney Jamie Rollins has discovered discrepancies in Ben’s stories concerning his close friendship with Arlene but has been thwarted in his attempts to expose Ben by Ben and Arlene’s successful blackmail retaliation.They drugged him and took suggestive pictures of him in bed with Arlene, which they now threaten to show to Diana Lamont, Jamie’s lover, who is carrying his child. Knowing that Diana’s health and age make carrying this child dangerous to her, Jamie can do nothing. Ben is horrified to discover Betsy is now pregnant, too. Felicia Lamont, married to Diana’s ex-husband, Charles, has been unable to consummate her marriage due to extreme emotional frigidity. Charles has been exceedingly patient, but Felicia’s emotional torment has been increased by the constant harassment of hoodlum/rapist Arnie Logan, whose subtle terror campaign is apparent only to Felicia, thus making her appear to be emotionally unstable. Only Eddie Aleata, Meg’s ex-husband, seems aware of the tortures Felicia is undergoing. Caroline (Cal) Aleata, Meg’s daughter, is becoming romantically involved with Rick Lattimer, formerly married to Bruce’s daughter Barbara, to the dismay of his business partner in the Beaver Ridge Club, who has him earmarked as her latest lover—Cal’s mother, Meg! Realizing that she is an accomplice, albeit unwillingly,in her- husband Ben’s bigamy, Arlene Lovett (Harper) tells attorney Jamie Rollins that she and Ben were once married but divorced before his return to Rosehill. To: prove good faith, Arlene gives Jamie the negatives of compromising pictures of him with Arlene that Ben set up, hoping they could keep Jamie in line by threatening to send them to his wife-to-be, Diana Lamont, who at forty is pregnant for the first time, and thus vulnerable. Jamie finds Diana collapsed on the floor and rushes her to the hospital, where their son is born prematurely. Learning that Diana found a partially burned picture of him and Arlene in bed, Jamie blames himself. The baby, Adam Jonathan. Rollins, has respiratory problems and cannot be saved. Diana feels she has lost everything, recalling the picture as well as the baby. Di and Jamie start to make plans for the future. Then Dr. Albertson informs them that | more tests are necessary, as a shadow appeared on her final X-rays. Exploratory surgery is scheduled, and Diana is shattered to learn later that a hysterectomy was necessary. Ben again asks his mother when she’s going  to give the wedding present (Ben married Betsy Crawford because Meg promised a half million dollars, but she postponed the gift until Christmas, and still hasn’t delivered.) Betsy tells Meg she’s destroying Ben’s manhood by dangling the money in front of him. Learning that Ben is into Ray Slater, a gambler, for six thousand dollars, Meg withdraws her promise of the money. When Ray informs Ben that his loan, with interest, is now up to nine thousand dollars, Ben threatens to go to the police. Ray replies that it’s the money or Ben’s skin, and when Ben tries to slip out of town, he’s badly beaten by collection men and dumped in the snow. Found by two backpackers, Ben is taken to a small hospital with a skull fracture and pneumonia. Meg is stunned to discover that her partner in Beaver Ridge Club, Rick Latimer, whom she considers her private property, is in love with her daughter,Cal. Learning that Cal and Rick are planning a weekend together, Meg arranges an immediate audit of the Beaver Ridge books, keeping Rick in town. Meg’s plot backfires, however, when the audit reveals that Meg wrote the down payment for her next project, the Priestly Estate venture, on the Beaver Ridge construction account. Meg replaces the money, but Rick warns her to stop trying to run his life or he’ll press misappropriation charges. Felicia Lamonte has been harassed by a young hoodlum, Arnie Logan, who has served time for assault and rape. At her painting studio she is again accosted by Logan, and she pulls out her gun, scaring him off. Unable to reach her husband, Charles, she calls Edouard Aleata, who has reinterested her in painting, and he arrives with the police. Charles, finding Eddie there with Felicia, fuels his growing suspicion that there’s something other than friendship between them. Because he’s already jealous, Arnie’s new harassment—notes to Charles that Felicia is unfaithful seem believable. Felicia convinces Charles that a week apart will help their marriage, and in looking over her paintings, she realizes she has grown as a person and feels ready to be a woman. She calls Charles, telling him she no longer wants to be his child virgin bride, but a real wife to him. Later, hearing someone at the door, Felicia assumes it is Charles, and is grabbed by Arnie when she opens it. He drags her downstairs, but she manages to escape and get back to her studio and her gun. Hearing footsteps outside, she fires blindly. Cautiously,she then goes to the door to find Charles lying there. He is rushed to the hospital, where it is discovered that the bullet is lodged in his spine. He’ll recover, but will be paralyzed. Logan is picked up, and charges are confirmed when other victims come forward with similar stories STAY TUNED.MORE TO COME...
