Members bellcurve Posted June 29, 2006 Members Share Posted June 29, 2006 I'm quite honestly shocked that Y&R does SO well despite being re-aired on SOAPnet! Three times a day also! I think it is a true testament to Y&R's continued success in daytime, in an age of budget cuts and falling ratings. I also have to wonder if Y&R's ratings will increase even MORE than usual during holidays, since the show is being exposed to more working people and those too lazy to tape the shows during the day. During the new year, Y&R's rating was 4.8, right? What if it gets a 5. Or even MORE?! I just hope a ballgame isn't airing on any major network that day.

Members Adam Posted June 29, 2006 Members Share Posted June 29, 2006 Nice to see AMC at least not dropping any further. I=DAYS would have to get increases sooner or later and most DAYS fans seem to be pleased so good for them. I guess its [!@#$%^&*]'s stuff that is airing now?

Members SpiritualJunkie Posted June 29, 2006 Members Share Posted June 29, 2006 More people tuned in for Coop & Ava's ITL than Friday's show? I also remember that most people on this board (me included) were !@#$%^&*]ing about how boring Thursday was so I'm surprised by the 2.4 rating. Not that I'm complaining...it's nice to see GL finally rise out of it's 2.1 rut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KBT Posted June 29, 2006 Members Share Posted June 29, 2006 DAYS is still at a 1.7 in the demos, so are the past viewers for DAYS coming back to see Patch and Kayla? It seems DAYS is slowly going up in Women 50+ and Women 25-54 and staying stagnant in the 18-49 demos. I am just glad to see DAYS at a 2.7 and in 3rd overall; it is well deserved. I cant wait for the overall numbers, LOVE seeing ABC failing because the execs their dont seem to care about the fans. A change is needed for all 3 ABC soaps IMO. Its sad to see ATWT so low! I hope GL can somehow get up to a 2.3 and stay there so hopefully it will stay on the air. DAYS is doing good at a 2.7 with NO lead in like some other soaps. Hopefully by November Sweeps when Hoagie is in full swing DAYS can reach the 3#'s again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members PhoenixRising05 Posted June 29, 2006 Members Share Posted June 29, 2006 Well I knew they would get 3rd but I was thinking 2.8 but 2.7 is good too. Just as long as they are up where they belong. It is going to be a slow and steady climb but I do think by the end of the summer Days will be in very good position. As always, the damn weekly 2.5 killed them. I thought Abe and Lexie on Monday might keep that number up-oh well. Glad to see GH be one of the only ones to fall (that is what you get for continuing to kill core characters) and seeing many of the soaps go up is great.

Members SteveFrame Posted June 29, 2006 Members Share Posted June 29, 2006 Yay for Days. The ratings overall aren't too good. As to the Y&R ratings, SoapNet has not hurt them that much, but there were several weeks there where they did fall or stay the same. This week I am glad to see that even they went back up.

Members rsmith2k2 Posted June 29, 2006 Members Share Posted June 29, 2006 SOAPnet is the savior and possibly finally landing point for soaps. It is a good thing, imo. I'd love for soaps to be predominantly cable and get away from some of the broadcast network and FCC pressure. Keep sinking, please ABCD and Brian Frons. BTW, Bri...how's that pesky HR issue over at The View? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SteveFrame Posted June 29, 2006 Members Share Posted June 29, 2006 Oh I would love to see the soaps go cable. Esp to a network like F/X. Can you imagine the type of stories we could get. I know that we would get some nudity and all, but that is not what would make it great - it would be the type of stories with realism and tough stories. Just look at the type of stories shows like Rescue Me are doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AgnesEckhart Posted June 29, 2006 Members Share Posted June 29, 2006 I respectfully disagree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rsmith2k2 Posted June 29, 2006 Members Share Posted June 29, 2006 I agree with your general point, but I have no interest in something comparable to Rescue Me. They just landed a whole lotta hell over a controversial rape scene that wasn't treated as such on screen. I watch AMC and have no desire to see anymore violations of women, por favor.
