Members lucaslesann23 Posted May 11, 2021 Members Share Posted May 11, 2021 Question for long time fans who kept up with all this renewal drama for years. Do you think two years will be the new normal or after 2023 go back to one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LondonScribe Posted May 12, 2021 Members Share Posted May 12, 2021 Sorry to be that guy, but with this (undoubtedly good) news, how long before Ken Corday suddenly decides the show needs a new lick of paint and Ron Carlivati is shown the door?

Members Soapsuds Posted May 12, 2021 Members Share Posted May 12, 2021 Lets hope soon! But I doubt it. Ron will continue to write his mask stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soapfan770 Posted May 12, 2021 Members Share Posted May 12, 2021 Glad to hear this, the pandemic brought me back to Days to watch more often. I was about to write the show off for good with this latest round of negotiations tbh so I’m glad Days has been renewed for two years instead of the usual one with all the drama involved.

Members soapfan770 Posted May 12, 2021 Members Share Posted May 12, 2021 Same. The last time I felt any optimism for a soap’s survival was unfortunately GL’s in 2009 which by that point I complacent and assumed at the end of the day GL would still get renewed despite the usual worriedness as I had grown accustomed to.

Members DRW50 Posted May 12, 2021 Members Share Posted May 12, 2021 I'm happy for the cast and crew who work so hard, and for the soap genre - what's left of it, anyway. Yesterday is not soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RavenWhitney Posted May 12, 2021 Members Share Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) Why? It takes a rare kind of incompetence to lose nearly half million viewers during a global pandemic year when everyone was in front of their TV and screens. But Ron, Albert and Ken did it.

Members te. Posted May 12, 2021 Members Share Posted May 12, 2021 Which shows gained an audience beyond the initial co-vid bump last year? I assume that most "bumps" these days will also just show up on streaming either way. Most people I know haven't watched broadcast in the past year - they've been binging available shows.

Members RavenWhitney Posted May 12, 2021 Members Share Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) Toups just posted May 3rd week ratings comparing total households to the same week a year ago. Days was the only show that didn't go into reruns; it had no soap competition for weeks. That was an unprecedented situation and yet in the last year they've lost 417,000 viewers. See below: Total Viewers 1. Y&R 3,270,000 (+50,000/+929,000) 2. B&B 2,766,000 (+133,000/+932,000) 3. GH 2,216,000 (+113,000/+78,000) 4. DAYS 1,576,000 (-41,000/-417,000) Edited May 12, 2021 by RavenWhitney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kalbir Posted May 12, 2021 Members Share Posted May 12, 2021 (edited) With Days being renewed for two more years, that means on Monday January 30, 2023, Days will have had a longer run than Guiding Light on US network television. As of today, the 10 longest running daytime dramas on US network television are General Hospital, Guiding Light, Days, As the World Turns, Y&R, One Life to Live, All My Children, Search for Tomorrow (both CBS years and NBC years), Another World, B&B.
