Ratings for the week November 30 - December 4, 2020

I'm glad Y&R got a nice bump/tune-in for the 12,000th episode & wedding. 

 

The mannequin story really killed off B&B's rebound momentum since returning, what a mess. 

B&B really shot themselves in the foot. I suppose they saved a lot of money filming all those scenes with only Matthew Atkinson in a tiny room with a doll. But between that, the black InstaQuad, the repetitive Liam/Hope/Steffy threesome, the quickest recovery from a motorcycle accident and painkiller addiction ever, and the repetitive and nonsensical Shauna/Eric/Quinn “story,” I’m surprised that more people didn’t tune out. There’s nothing remotely entertaining going on IMO.

Exactly, and if what I read from B&B's Australia Facebook page is true the show is tanking down under with viewership due to the story as well as they are now just a few days behind the US if they don't have access to same day US eps via the 10play app. Not a good look if the show is losing its long touted international support over such lousy storytelling.
