The in initial promotion seems to have been very thorough.

What are they doing now? Are there primetime promos? 

They really need to have a 'phase 2' strategy to keep up the interest and awareness.

I believe Sheila Ducksworth said in a conversation at the Paley Center event that there is something big happening at the end of April, which would align with "May Sweeps," even though that doesn't really exist anymore except maybe for local stations.

I expect Michele Val Jean, with the support of Guza, will deliver their first big sweeps event since the few days they had in February were primarily used to establish the show and its characters.

Let’s be honest here BTG was not going to debut at #1 or #2 in Total viewers or Households.
 

It should go without stating that soaps like B&B, RH, DAYS, and AMC took multiple years to build their audience. BTG has solid demos and that’s a foundation on which they can build on. I’m quite impressed with these and the effect the show is having on the rest of the line up.

Realistically, live ratings are going to keep ticking downwards for all shows in the coming years as more people switch towards streaming / delayed viewing. It'll likely be more of a question what shows can keep their live audience and which shows can start building an audience beyond those that just "switch" on streaming.

 

Either way, the show is doing well. We haven't really seen a huge drop-off like with other soap launches (likely because live numbers aren't what they used to be). And as others have pointed out, it looks like the launch helped the overall line up perform better, which will be in the plus column. 

Either way, I'd worry more about shows like GMA3 than the remaining soaps at the moment as they keep having backstage turmoil

    • Well...I'm glad Tomas and Kat put it out there on the table.   Ooooo awww at this Anita/Vernon scene.     Yeah, I loved Vernon's talk to Anita.   But yep...a nice day, but a slow day.
    • I like the slow burn romance building between Tomas and Kat, and I also liked the homework scene with Tyrrell and his lady friend (Phil & Tara on AMC had a study date talking math as they made eyes at one another). What I most liked about this episode was that we had longer scenes today between Anita/Tracy, Chelsea/Kat, and Tomas/Kat mixed with shorter scenes.   I wonder if the breakdown writer, or script writer, determines the length of each scene.  I also have a feeling Chelsea's going to run to Dani after learning about Hayley's possible bun in the oven... and that horrid heffer (Dani) will stick her nose where it doesn't belong. That said, I liked the spark of spunk from Hayley at the end.  If she were smart, she'd pay the country club crowd no attention and focus on making friends with others outside the gate.
    • After his excellent portrayal of JFK - I remember watching it as a kid and being wicked impressed - Devane must have been in demand for big ticket projects. Sadly, he didn't get very good guidance in choosing the right parts, an often overlooked aspect of the entertainment business....to Knot's Landing's benefit, of course...
    • I'm not ready at all. But at least I can take some time at least. I know I'm going to be a crying mess.
    • I hope Rena Sofer, as Lois, remains at GH for a long time to come
    • Well, the writing wasn't helping him so it's good to hear.   VERY good to hear.
    • I'll give it a shot. If this is bad it's on you, @carolineg!
    • Absolutely ridiculous that three soaps are going to make me watch today's episodes.
    • *eyeroll* on Hayley.   While I feel like he has more chemistry with Eva, the actor playing Tomas is slooooowly improving.   Le sigh Smitty. That said...we know I'm loving the near-misses around Martin's secret. And happy it is getting attention again the last week of May Sweeps.
    • I love how farmboy  Hart became a Guido with a thick New York accent. You could tell they never knew or cared what to do with Hart post MH, he was just a hunk of steroids to take off their shirt and have girls fight over him, but I never understood what Bridget, Dinah or Cassie saw in him..(besides the proverbial roll in the hay, now there is a 20 on the dresser get out.) The move from Hilliard to Grillo was really quick and I would like to know the story...was Moniz not liking him? For more on our good old George Pilgrim, read "Unscripted" where he makes a cameo appearance as Sumner Redstone's much younger mistresses side piece. When you read about him you could imagine that Pilgrim was writing his own dialogue as obnoxious J.  There is NO way he was a product of Nola and Quint.
