Members Faulkner Posted December 1, 2019 Members Share Posted December 1, 2019 I suppose it’s not surprising this was a bloodbath due to the preeemptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted December 2, 2019 Members Share Posted December 2, 2019 Strange B&B didn't get counted for Tuesday (19th) considering it aired two different episodes in parts of the country. Meanwhile, Y&R's abbreviated episode did count that day. The ratings for past two weeks are more interesting than relevant. I'm pretty sure December and January will see many more partial and full pre-emptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted December 2, 2019 Members Share Posted December 2, 2019 I'd be interested in comparing holiday/special programming pre-emptions and how they affected (or not) the ratings during the 1980s. Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I'd always believed that soap's ratings were boosted during the holidays. How have the holidays now become a liability?

Members Soapsuds Posted December 2, 2019 Members Share Posted December 2, 2019 There's an 80s ratings thread in the canceled soap section if the board. And the ratings for the Jan 88 holiday ratings were posted just yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted December 2, 2019 Members Share Posted December 2, 2019 One day I'll get the courage to venture in that thread again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gray Bunny Posted December 6, 2019 Members Share Posted December 6, 2019 I remember healthy holiday bumps all the way up through the early 2000's, with the last era around 2004 when AMC's Bianca awakened and finally got her baby back during the week between Christmas and New Years. The holiday bumps were always a good indicator of how many people out there still had a general interest in these shows, even if they didn't make the effort to watch year-round.
