DAYS was trending up in the ratings the last couple weeks, which included all demos. However, those ratings weren’t reported on this site…I wonder why?

All the soaps will yo-yo in the ratings and eventually DAYS will trend up for several months in celebration of it’s 50 years!!!!!

Be afraid, be very afraid haters!

Days Ratings better improve, or it will face cancellation next year. I love Days, but right now I am not liking the soap.

530,000 is horrible for GH in women. GH ratings were not all of that for a reveal week. I was expecting at least 3 million

Sadly, the ratings info (and how it is collated) is antiquated and sends the entirely wrong message to storytellers like Pratt over on #YR. (All he needs is this sort of weak positive enforcement to feel justified in his methodic crucification of a 42-yr old ground-breaking serial. Don’t be surprised if he feels now justified in penning some sort of massacre at Crimson Lights or blowing-up Newman Towers!) It’s all flash-and-gore with that one; qualified talented visionaries like the late Bill Bell, Douglas Marland and James E. Reilly musty be rolling in their gaves seeing what this hack is being allowed to pass-off as daytime drama! (Send him back to primetime where he belongs!)

Days of our Lives is nice, but boring. The sets are very outdated and extremely limited, and I can’t stand that fake leaf park set used for every other scene (or so it seems anyway). The storylines need some help, this nonsense right now of Marlena being threatened to be thrown out the window in Italy is so absurd. Showing the clip of her possession from the 90’s was kind of silly. Honestly, they do need to come up with some compelling storylines and please please PLEASE get some new sets. I know it’s a soap, I know there are budgets, and I think the years of soaps actually going on location are long over, but they still need to come up with something. Otherwise, the sand may just run out soon…..

Even with some criticism Y&R is still doing great,well in front in the demos. Days is bad ,but I have hope for the fall with the 50th I guess the Nurses Ball didn’t help GH,they are having an awful season in the young demos. GH is aging rapidly. They have been at demo lows for months now

Shocked that #YR was up with one of Pratt’s worst weeks in storytelling.

Also shocked that the nurses ball didn’t do more for GH. Maybe it’s time to wrap that up.

Days has been focused on the Will-Sonny-Paul thing. Never good for ratings.

Everyone thinks the answer is to bring on a bunch of teenagers/twentysomethings and vets – NO! Write compelling stories that include the young and old(er). Soaps were once about family and there was a hero/heroine to root for. We had couples that grew into super couples and it didn’t happen over one or two episodes or a morth. I understand the soaps are desperate and last ditch efforts are now the norm. But, they need to check their history and steal from what worked. Also, bring on writers and executive producers who are creative and have a vision for the future. Taking crap and throwing it against the wall to see if it sticks, no longer works.

Days needs to bring back Leann Hunley as Anna, and bring back Louise Sorel Vivian Alamain.

I have watched DOOlL since the days of Roman sleeping on Marlena’s floor. I have to agree that about the comments about the sets. Can we have the peer back? Marlena house, which later was Abe and Lexie’s?

I want to see more character development. Eve, Theresa, Clyde are cardboard villains. Let us know why they are so bad and allow them to have some redeeming characters. As soon as Theresa found out her baby was alive, the character could have turned a corner and made us start cheering that she would get back with Brady. But, she still seems too self absorbed.

The one character that baffles me in Melanie. If she is going to be paired with an older man (her dad’s best friend), why does she talk in that little girl voice and look stoned when she is delivering her lines. She could have had a great storyline with Chad and Abigail.

Can the writers give Jennifer a new love interest? I am so tired of Daniel, Eric and Brady trading women. This does not happen among friends.

There is so much dead weight on the show. The writers need to give us relatable stories. I have said before that I would like to see Hope or Marlena be diagnosed with breast cancer. I would like to see Nicole have some family in Salem. She continues to be one of the best assets on the show. Make her family a core part of the landscape.

I read today that Claire is being aged to a 15 year old. I do not like the idea that Hope is going to be a grandmother to a teenager when Ciara is only eight or nine years old.

I am excited Thaao, Peter and Stephen are coming back. I am not sure if it is long-term, but if not, bring back Chloe, Phillip, Mimi, Shawn and Phillip. That 30-something age is missing on the show.

The writers need to give Eric a pulse. Greg Vaughn is a powerhouse actor. His acting on GH during the drug addiction storyline was amazing.

I can’t wait to see Serena leave the show. Horribly boring character.

Why has Abe and Maxie been forgotten?

Can we have another town disaster and it kill off all of the boring characters?

Last week when Days was basically the only soap up in ratings nobody made it a topic Why?

Really hope DAYS do pretty good during the 50th…………I’m still worried!
Happy for CBS!

The new writers are going to kill Days. When they were there before the rating went down, now they want to kill the Sonny Paul and Will story line all together, even if it’s the story line saving the show.

Head “writing” team : change : effective February 16, 2015
