I feel like BTG is tarnished being associated with Y&R/B&B the way they are now.

Agree.

I looked up some of the Y&R and B&B scenes in that combined promo with BTG.  WHY would they use mostly bad scenes from the past year? Nothing that interesting.  I mean Hope/Carter is sort of interesting. But Billy/Sally? Nope.  Kyle/Claire? Dull.   Steffy in Luna's cage was a terrible storyline.    And Diane's excitement about yet another business line - really?

I guess they picked the Ridge/Taylor clip to maybe attract AMC Zach/Greenlee fans?  Because otherwise, why pick that scene?
Edit, it's from Dec. 23, 2024 when Ridge is about to romance Taylor in the bedroom, and they hold up drinks .... but the rest of the scene is that he spills a drink on Taylor's shirt, and they stop, and Taylor changes into an extra shirt of Ridge's; at which point Brooke arrives and makes assumptions.

It's like the staff of Y&R and B&B just randomly grabbed some stuff to include, without having any idea if it's compelling.

I agree but disagree at the same time; looking at BTG in comparison to B&B/Y&R, I can tell how much more has gone into it, production/writing wise, and how much stronger it overall looks in comparison.

As awful as the other soaps are, BTG needs that halo built-in audience that comes from them to get off to a solid start and base with viewers. 

RE: The Price is Right vs. The Talk ratings.

Finally got the actual viewership numbers (rare these days!) for the game show's repeats, albeit for a single week. Again, "The Talk" was a failure in comparison. Not just with its 15th and final season, but also Season 14 and likely Season 13 and Season 12. Overall, that talk show hadn't seen Total Viewer numbers like the encore broadcasts of TPIR received last week since at least 2021 or 2022, and in many cases since 2020. What a waste.

 

RATINGS: Encores of ‘The Price is Right’ Top Final Season of ‘The Talk,’ ‘The View’ Sustains Lead Among Network News & Talk Shows

Encore broadcasts of "The Price is Right" top original episodes of "The Talk" (Season 15) among Total Viewers. Meanwhile, "The View" remains a big winner in daytime.

I don't think that All-shows trailer tarnishes anything. All of the shows air on CBS, it's meant to happen. I actually encourage more trailers like this. There is no way BTG can just stand on it's own like in some type of oasis. It's CBS's daytime and they should promote all of their shows.

Steffy in the cage gave BOLD the only good buzz and bump in ratings the show had last year

I'm more lost as to why they used the most unpopular chemistry free couples on BOLD/YR except for Jack/Diane

 

I mean Courtney Hope and Jason Thompson out there begging people to give Sally/Billy a chance lol lol lol 

Oh and the scream was Electra from BOLD when she saw the pictures Remy had of her in his bathroom

@dragonflies thanks for the info on the scream from the promo.

So that's three scenes from the same B&B storyline in the combined BTG/B&B/Y&R promo

B&B: Will Spencer and Remy fighting (re: Electra) from Jan. 2, 2025.

B&B: Electra screaming  -- that's from when she sees the the wall in Remy's apartment full of deepfake photos that Remy made of her - from the end of the Dec. 26, 2024 episode.

B&B: Electra running down the street after she escapes from Remy, from Dec. 31, 2024.

I haven't watched or read much on the Remy/Electra/Will storyline.  Was it any good?  Is this something B&B should feel worth promoting?  Is the Will/Remy romance popular?  I'm not snarking here, I just honestly don't know because I wasn't following it.

How lucky of you. You don't need to lose your time with it. It's... Absolute snooze fest.

We are two at that, she's probably my favorite Y&R Character right now, one of the few with some layers!

Did I Miss Something here? Or was it a typo? 

Anyway BTG definitely needs some of the viewers of the other soaps to get off the ground, ALL THAT MONEY CAN'T BE IN ANY WAY WASTED! The other shows need some investment to recoup their quality, with B&B the simplest Way would be to give Bradley a long vacation! And get someone with fresh ideas to write!
